You all might remember the Igloo building party we went to last December.... Igloo building party.....
well last night was this years event and the theme was Santa's Sleigh.

The hostess had mentioned last year as we were leaving that they were planning on Santa's Sleigh being the theme but over the last 12 months she forgot that she had said that. And evidently we were the only ones who heard it, because when we got there last night we were the only ones with a plan. One that had been forming in our minds since we left their house last year. Wink
We both forgot that I had posted the story line here last year and had to 'wing it' on the wording but the effect was pretty much the same.

There were lots of comments about our twisted sense of humor and laughter and when the votes were counted we had won the Most Funny category.

Our caption for the scene of the terrible accident....

"Santa surveyed the scene, the sleigh was a total loss, a month's hike back to the North Pole, but at least he had plenty of venison"

The obvious lack of reindeer laying around at the scene can be explained factually by the fact that the hostess had asked that no one bring their own props....but for the purpose of our story it is because Santa had already 'dressed them out' and buried them in the snow for future dining.
