Who needs an elf on the shelf...

When you daddy is an elf?

Justin was "nominated" to dress as an elf for the children's Christmas party on Dec.9th. When he told me about it I thought he was joking!

Apparently, several people put bids in for him to receive the honor of dressing as the elf and in order for him to bestow this honor on somebody else he would have been required to pay a certain amount of money. Of course, I being the supportive wife that I am encouraged him to be a good sport and do it for the kids.

Confession time: I just wanted a good laugh!

I am so glad he was such a good sport about it and seemed to have fun. Although, he did receive a little bit of insight into a woman's world since the costume included tights! Ha ha! Not just ANY tights, these things were actually like pantyhose and several sizes too small. Good thing he didn't need to do too much walking around!

We all had a great night with a lot of laughs. The kids got to talk to "Santa" whom Ericka assured me was not real since his belly wasn't big enough and didn't shake when he laughed!
