With the arrival of our daughter two years ago, rumor spread that our elf Reuben would come to a screeching halt. However, that could not be further from the truth. Reuben has been here each year since and is thriving in his new child-filled environment. But with that being said, we have talked to Reuben about his usual antics, and we think we’re going to have to put a leash on him next year. With the babe growing up quickly, she’ll soon understand Reuben and what he’s here for. Which unfortunately is not taking shots (see photos) or breaking people’s knees (see other photos).
This year Reuben got into quite a bit of fun. He featured a few of our favorite movies and a few ‘oldie but goodie’ songs. He really got detailed in some of his scenes, which definitely made for some late nights on my behalf. But watching my husband bend over in laughter each morning was well worth it.
So tell me, how many of them can you figure out? I’ll list them all below, in order. Leave me a comment with how many you guessed!
In order of appearance (and from left to right when applicable):
- My Milkshake Brings All the Boys to the Yard (“Milkshake,” Kelis)
- Who Let the Dogs Out, Baha Men
- Spice Girls
- Risky Business (Tom Cruise)
- Lady and the Tramp
- Lion King
- Dumb and Dumber
- Fatal Attraction
- What Happens in Mexico (no relation to a movie/song)
- 99 Problems, Jay-Z
- Cry Me a River, Justin Timberlake
- Single Ladies, Beyonce
- 1994 Olympics – Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya Harding
- Die Hard (Bruce Willis)
So tell me, how many did you get right?
