Rubber Ducky Resort & Campground – A family campground located in Warren, near Winnipeg, Manitoba

Only 5 more sleeps until Santa comes to visit. Are we ready yet?  I know that this time of year can be overwhelming for some with all the shopping, partying, baking, wrapping etc. So take this time to sit back, relax and enjoy ready some silliness that I found to share.

Funny Christmas Jokes — The Tradition of the Angel

When four of Santa’s elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the Pre-Christmas pressure.

Then Mrs Claus told Santa her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.

When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.

Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.

Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum.

When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drank all the cider and hidden the liquor.

In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor.

He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.

Just then the doorbell rang, and irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.

The angel said very cheerfully, ‘Merry Christmas, Santa.

Isn’t this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you.

Where would you like me to stick it?’

And so began the tradition of the little angel stuck on top of the Christmas tree . . .

Ok that’s enough fooling around everybody get back to work, wrapping, cleaning, shopping or whatever else you should be doing instead of playing.

This Friday night is the annual Stonewall parade of lights and we will be there as usual. I was trying to think how many years we have gone in the parade but I really don’t know for sure. I know that we started entering before we started the campground when we were still Rubber Ducky Hot Tubs. There were a couple years that we took a hot tub with at least one year we even had people sitting in the tub as we went down the parade route.  I am guessing that was probably in 2002 or 2003. I think we might have skipped one year when we weren’t able to get a float done. But the last few years we have always been there with a float of some sort and it is always a great time. Last year we were fortunate to have some good ideas and some good help and we won best commercial float. This year things started out with not much for good ideas, but some good help. We were just kind of winging it (yes pun intended) as we went along in the building process on Saturday and in the end it turned out pretty darn good. We now have our decorated car hauler trailer sitting in the picnic shelter patiently waiting for Friday night. We are still in the process of adding one more thing to the float that will be the unique finishing touch. Then the final details and hooking up on Friday afternoon and we will be on the road.

I am hoping that Mr WeatherMan is nice to us this year. We have been through it all – wicked North wind, – 30 temperatures, snow, and last year’s treat of amazingly warm conditions. We were definately spoiled last year when we hardly had to bundle up at all.

If you come to the parade be sure to watch out for the duck walking by. It’s hard for us on the float to see who is in the crowd sometimes so if you know us or have camped with us be sure to give us a BIG wave so that we can see you.  And if you hear the shout of “Who’s number one”  from our float. I wanna hear you shout back “Rubber Ducky”.

We still have some room for riders on the float so if anyone is interested let me know and I can save you a seat. You have to be able to meet us in Stonewall at 6:30ish and the parade is usually done just after 7:30.

So far, so good

I came across this on another site and thought I would share a chuckle with everyone.
