Quantcast

My favorite annual holiday post. (It’s funny, it has photos, it’s SHORT. Who could ask for more?)

Sorry that I left such sad post up for so long but I have been having major issues with WordPress due to some plugins I installed. I had another post in mind for today but I want to give “THE TOPIC” a few days to settle before I pipe up my evaluations. My apologies to those in the know who were looking forward to it. It will be the next thing I write, pinky swear.

SO…Instead I am going to bring back one of my favorite annual posts of all time: the fact that my friends and family freakishly resemble the cast of characters in “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”.

It’s true. They totally do.

Take a look for yourself:

Bob-(My Dad) as “Santa

Brian as “Herbie the Misfit Elf

Karen as “Tall, Nameless Elf” (Poor Karen. She never rates a name in this post. )

ME as “Whiner, Redhead, Misfit Doll

Christopher as “Rudolph”

James as “Coach Comet”

Bridgy as “Hot Reindeer Clarisse

Jonathan as “Yukon Cornilius

Michelle as “Bumble with retarded star

And last…the misfit Jelly Squirt Gun reminds me of my brother, Rhett…I’m not really sure why. Hes not really sure either and is perpetually puzzled by the selection. I think it’s brilliant. Trust me on this.

I’m going to see if I can brush up on my reindeer games and get the hell off of “Misfit Island”.

I’ll catch y’all later.

    Holy crabs – Great casting! Get off that Misfit Island. You wouldn’t want to have any fun or think for yourself at the North Pole. Damn Santa is no fun.

    I think they wrote the story after meeting your family. I swear, the cast is perfect.

    I just finished watching it! OMG why?? I haven’t a clue considering the kids are 15 and 18 but I suppose old habits die hard.
    Besides, with no other sign of Christmas in our house, watching the old cartoons is the least I can do!

    Kyle reminds me of an Aristocat sometimes.

    Dear Rhett -
    It’s because of the rectangular-ish face. The squirt gun also has a dry sense of humor, even if less intentional than yours.
    I need to invade another food day.

    Brilliant.

    I’m told I look like Rudolph. My nose gets red when I drink and I think I can fly. Plus, My husband likes to put a harness on me and ride…

    ER.

    Nevermind.
