Every year since I can remember, my family has opened up pajamas the night before Christmas. Last year, we deviated a bit for the guys and got them work out shorts instead because they all had a serious pile of PJ’s from years past. This year we went back to normal, and when Micah heard that we were doing PJ’s again he was anything but subtle. In his defense, he doesn’t wear them to sleep in, and has a load of sweats he will usually wear first for lounging. HOWEVER….there is something called appreciation and another thing called a return policy.
When we opened our PJ’s that night, Micah got a special little box creatively wrapped in a mini Victoria’s Secret box just for him. My mom couldn’t stand the thought of him going without, so she got him something else that she thought he might like. But when she went to the store to get him a new Speedo, she couldn’t bring herself to spend money on bikini briefs, so instead she bought him the “boy short” style.
He was thrilled, and immediately went into the next room to put them on. He then hopped into the window behind where we were all sitting, popped open the screen and offered us all a little dance. It looked a little “red light districtish”. The girls were disgusted, and the boys were in hysterics.
Later that night…according to tradition, the boys put out all of the presents and then they are off to Harbor House for shakes while I arrange the presents and the girls hang out and watch. Ryan said he was stoked to go to Harbor House, but was really frightened to know whether or not Micah had his nasty shorts on underneath. I thought he was crazy until I saw Micah the next night……after hours and hours of Christmas festivities….changing out of his jeans. And guess what cutie pie had on underneath? Mom……it may have been the perfect alternative to the PJ’s!
