white elephants

after the kids had their prizes, we tried something we had never done before: we gave each other white elephant gifts. having never done it before, we werent really sure how to go about it. we decided on playing cards that were drawn to select who would go first. as the whole thing got going, we found some pretty amazing gifts among the group! i got a strange candy dish of some sort, diana got a half finished painting by jill of some random leaves and flowers, mom got a strange bee house thingy. the best of the bunch, though, was this fantastic photographic triptych that papa got from timmy! look at those amazing photos! that middle one is showing a bit too much thigh, i must admit... the whole thing went over pretty well, and i think we all had a bunch of fun! diana and i are still trying to decide where to put the amazing painting from jill...

Strange bee-housey thing? Sounds familiar.
