So here we are in Delaware for Thanksgiving with my brother and family, and we are exchanging gifts since we'll be at the in-laws for Christmas. So in my quest to find the best joke gift for Tim, Kate and I got him something he would never guess (and we were correct, my sister-in-law Miranda guessed it correctly)…a UNC Snuggie. As in those horrible polyester things “as seen on TV” blankets with sleeves. All I can think of — besides looking loony — is that if any flammable object came near one, it would explode with you in it.
To our horror, he actually said he would wear it during “critical UNC basketball games!” Anyway, he posed in his new Snuggie with my nephew Mr. E.
Below the fold, Mr. E goes to the farm and your blogmistress threatens a turkey.
We drove to Millburn Farms (just over the state line in Maryland) where there is a petting farm.
OK, end of shameless family holiday break.

How fun!I’m glad you posted this. Some of us are having difficulties with our own families, so it’s great to see that normal family fun is still happening out there and is still possible.
Pam, LOL!“YOU’RE NEXT!!” “YOU’RE NEXT!!” You’re Kevin McCarthy warning about the pods in “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”!! LOLOLOL!
WTF Blanket
Beautiful kid. Handsome man.The gene pool is obviously doing good things in your family!
I can’t get past the Snuggie… I’m sorry, there is just something so wrong about Snuggies! Eew!
I’ve threatened my hubby with a leopard print snuggyWhen we were in the Winn Hotel he put on one of their very lux leapord print robes and he vamped a pose, so I thought a cheap knock off would be fun.
We spent most of the day at PLAGUE CENTRAL, the dreaded eye ear nose doctor’s office. EVERY drippy nose and coughing child from 5 states were in the waiting room…BLEEECH!
I wouldn’t go in there, and wouldn’t touch a door or elevator button either….we waited almost 3 hours there to have my hubby’s ear tube changed.
I agree about the SnuggieIt is my worst nightmare for that fabric to come anywhere near my skin. Tim plans to wear it! And his cat, Teacake the tabby, has already taken up residence on it.
