on the road to elfdom...maybe.

Being surrounded by Christmas and Santa you think that I would have been the holidays biggest cheerleader...that was not the case. B.C. (Before Claus) I thought Christmas was great and I liked it as much as any other kid. Once my dad started to do Santa however I began to resent and despise it. I was surrounded by it 24/7 and it drove me absolutely nuts! The only time I really enjoyed the holiday was at Disneyland. Once I moved out of my parents house however I began to appreciate it a little bit more (and because I wasn't surrounded by it all day). I have since moved back in with Mom and Dad and I've started getting into the design element of it more. I, like my mom, have a knack for the artsy side of things and when mom did the ' upgrade' on Mrs. C I started looking more into the elf thing. I think I'm gona pull a mom and do an 'upgrade' on the elf costume cause most of the ones I've seen with a few exceptions are shapeless and baggy and look silly. I still don't know if I will actually decide to play elf but I wana make a pretty dress anyway . Until then I'll still help mom a bit with the "no I think you should do this with the bag or no that buckle needs to be much bigger" side of the Santa business.
