What We've Been Up To-10107

Our family has come up with a holiday that only we celebrate. It's affectionately called 10107. It originated from some bad handwriting several years ago. Darren writes in all capital letters and had written on a piece of paper the word IDIOT. However, with his handwriting, Darren's dad asked, "What's a 10107?" And a family joke was born. Ever since then we have used phrases like, "Don't be a 10107!" or "You 10107!" Then in July of 2007, we were sitting at the dinner table and somehow the subject of 10107 came up, and we realized that October 1, 2007 would be our joke in date form! (10-1-07) Some phone calls were made and our family holiday began. The celebration consists of all things idiotic. The more idiotic the better. One of the most idiotic things we do is commemorate the date every year. Here are some pictures of this years 10107.

Megan's family made t-shirts for everyone the first year.

Our white elephant exchange. Usually there are mixed emotions from the kids, depending on the gift they receive. This year went pretty smooth.

Thanks for the fun you "10107's"!
