This is just the head! (on me)
This is Mike in the suit and Steph and I by him.
This is him getting into costume.
This is Mike standing on the corner of a street in Preston getting ready to advertise for the donuts and hot chocolate that the Elks Lodge were selling.
This is him waving before his big "dance." :) enjoy!
One of the many things we were able to do while in Idaho this past Thanksgiving is help our Grandpa West at the Elks Lodge. They were having a fundraiser type thing and they asked Mike to be Elroy the Elk. It was quite fun to see him dress up for the Festival of Lights parade in Preston, Idaho. It was hilarious. You had to be there. The costume above was quite simple to put on. He had this thing underneath the suit that made him look fatter, then he puy on the clothes part. He then put on the boots and the gloves. Finally, the head made him complete. So, he was quite hilarious! :) He performed perfectly to get people to come and buy hot chocolate and donuts. The Festival of Lights was also pretty cool. They had singers before and we went down and watched some people sing. They had some fireworks that were pretty cool. This was one of the best experiences we had at the time down there. We also saw our Great Grandma Bobbie while we were down there. She is looking more fragile every day. As she ages, her memory gets worse.
Anyway, here is one of many dances Mike made up for his Elroy the Elk character. The elk represents the Elks Lodge. We helped down there with the food for a little bit. It was quite the experience being down there. Sorry if I embarass you Mike. :) :(
video of Mike doing the "dance"!!! :) :) :)
