go (el)F yourself

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...I'm not going to lie.  I'm already excited.  I was at the mall with KM today and the tree is already up, there are presents around, and the fake snow is coming in.  I have started my Christmas playlist for the iPod.  First track?  Fairytale of New York by the Pogues, naturally.  It's my favorite Christmas song ever.  Followed by Brick by Ben Folds.  Don't hate.  They are both most certainly Christmas songs. 

But it's not the mall that tells me that it's Christmas.  It isn't even my iPod that dictates.  Oh no, no, my friends.  I know it is Christmas time because...

ELF YOURSELF IS BACK!

Brought to us annually by the amazing people of JibJab and OfficeMax, Elf Yourself is a fantastic opportunity to take pictures of friends, family, pets, etc. and turn them into fantastically cute elves that do delightful dances!  It seriously is the best thing ever.  And a sure sign that Christmas is on the way. 

For your entertainment I am providing you with two videos of my favorite lovees as examples.  It seriously makes me incredibly happy.

The Girls

The Boys

So go check it out, make a few elves, have a laugh.  Go Elf Yourself!
