Provided we have a babysitter Saturday night, we'll be attending a white elephant gift exchange for our Sunday School class. Being that we're new -- we have to make a good impression, right? We each have to take one. So... help us come up with the best white elephant gift idea! What is the best one you have ever witnessed?
***update: Got babysitters and arguably had the best gifts at the party. :) Tony finally got rid of his Fiesta/Salsa shirt from when he worked at Hacienda. The guy even went to the bathroom and modeled it for everyone. And I took a board book called On Your Potty and a small pack of M&Ms. It got stolen twice!!
And there were some really sweet gifts to be had -- this was the nicest white elephant gift exchange I've ever participated in. Glad we didn't take the pregnancy test... :) There were Starbucks gift cards, Home Depot, Blockbuster. So next year we will be nicer -- but we did get the biggest laughs this year.
I picked up a Fact or Crap 2009 desk calendar -- which Tony is loving right now. He loves random trivia. And then he honorably stole a My Little Pony from someone else for Kaiya. Seeing his interest in My Little Pony someone gave him a musical My Little Pony toothbrush to go along with it. I think Kaiya will want us to get a babysitter more often!

Remember the toilet seat that got passed around the Blackwell family?! That was funny! I don't know if that was ever really a white elephant gift though. I also don't know if that would be a very good idea for a gift when you guys are the new people to the group. People may think your weird!
Hope you guys have a good time!! :)
Yes -- who has the toilet seat currently?
We are wondering that too...where is that toilet seat? Who has it? Where did it go, who gave it last? We can't remember, but we don't have it in our family - so where is it???? Humm, this is looking like a mystery novel in the making!!!
HOw fun! Glad you got to go and make more friends~!:)
We started a new toilet seat for our family about 3 years ago... we thought it was a funny tradition to bring back to life as our family is growing!
You could have given that green shirt we found at a yardsale, the one that says "green is for pimps" or something like that. Always a good time there!! :)
