My husband did this. It makes me laugh hysterically.
Antique Mommy instructed us to read this. And she is right. And then she said my new favorite quote: "An exhortation to the sisters, be a fool for Christ, not Christmas - it doesn’t honor Him." Don't you see why I like to pretend that she is my BFF?
Riley is on crutches and in a cast. Let me tell you a little story about what happened -- or at least the part that I am clear about:
"Once upon a time there was a 6 foot wooden fence and a 10 year old little boy. The end."
He ended up in the ER last week while Troy was out of town and has made a grand tour of doctor's offices and medical supply places and finally ended up with a lovely ACU purple cast that now matches his foot. Meanwhile, I have spent the past 7 days suppressing my gag reflex as I deal with swelling, bruising, fracture, tendons, floating bone pieces (double-erp), fracture boots, cast, and crutches. And last night Ashley played all of one minute of her pre-season basketball tournament game before she was trampled by the mob and left the court with a twisted ankle. Anyone know of an orthopedist that has a punch card where you get your 12th visit free? All in all, we're doing great and on the mend. I said yesterday -- just a little grit on the contact lens of life; and yet another opportunity to bow in gratitude at the amazing health that all of my family regularly enjoys.

Oh that is hilarious that elf yourself thing ! Just hope your son doesn't see that he has grown to a C-cup (!) heehee - of course if you point this out to Riley, it may help with a speedy recovery, I've heard that laughter is the best medicine :)
Thad ended up with a C-cup too. . .and I didn't get to e-mail you yesterday about Riley, but I am sooooooooooo sorry, and I'm assuming that this happened at your house? Tony's brother had a similar incident at a similar age with a similar fence, only it was his arm that rued the day. Atleast Riley is showing his Wildcat pride.
LOVE the cast! Get better soon, Riley!
No fool for Christmas,

I love the elf video. I have never seen Troy move like that! He looks so perky and elfy.
Glad Riley has a cast that is full of signatures!
I am _loving_ the elf video, as well. So sorry about the cast...and the twisted ankle...and the fact that Troy was out of town when it all happened.
I knew you had those moves in you but I DID NOT think that Troy did!
