White Elephant 2014

The long-awaited White Elephant party was finally here!  The pressure for funny gifts is getting greater and greater each year. The Lebitski's hosted this year and we had a great night!
The "Littles" aren't so little any more

 Some of the "Bigs" are bigger than others, but they are all beautiful young ladies now and growing way too fast!
 We started with a delicious dinner of BBQ ribs and chicken with all of the sides and spent time visiting in their new backyard.
 Then we drew numbers (29 this year) and took our places in the family room.  There was lots of stealing and lots of laughter!
Jenna was up first and got this fun Rasta hat, but it was quickly stolen by Maylie 
and frozen when Hank stole it from Maylie.
 Poppy wasn't too impressed by his "Instant Underwear".  
 I was proud of my gift chosen by Marcie…a Beta fish and a bag of chips for Fish and Chips!  It was quickly stolen by Lindsey and frozen by Luke.  I hope he gives the fish a good home :)
 Katy with the basket case game, although after getting stolen, 
 she stole Allison's sign for her bar!
So Allison stole Zoey's People of Walmart calendar and framed photo of Charlie from 8th grade (another one of my ideas!)
Charlie then and now…Ha!
 Stacy with her Obama surfer from Hank and Leslie's recent Kauai trip.
 TJ did not like his "You're So Special" angel figurine.
Matt opened my favorite of the night.  He was confused at first by the glass ornament that said Sweet Tooth and was full of sprinkles.  After a closer look, he found Darian's eye teeth from childhood dangling off a string.  Disgusting, but super good one Darian!
It now proudly hangs on our Christmas tree!
 Darian got the Christmas Story leg lamp
and Taylor was very embarrassed by her Ball Lifter Briefs!
 Hayden got this hideous troll-looking statue
 and Lauren sported her granny wig.
 I opened this lovely poop soap which looked far too realistic.  Thankfully it was stolen and I ended up with a wine cork.  
 The pickle-flavored candy canes, Barf-flavored jelly beans, owl ornament, fire hydrant cookie jar and a few others I can't recall rounded out the list of fun, yet disturbing gifts. Another successful exchange
 and a fun night with great friends!
