Roommate hijinks

    Once upon a time I came home to find two large decorative snowmen in our dining room. They stand on their own, they're stuffed. One is about 3.5 feet tall, the other is about 2.5 feet tall. They came from Michelle's mother's house to decorate ours for the Christmas season. They found a home filling in one corner of our living room and lived there happily for several weeks. However eventually it came time to reorganize the living room due to changes in furniture and there was nowhere for them to stay in the living room. As we were reorganizing and cleaning I asked Michelle "What should I do with the snowmen?" She didn't reply, and I had a thought so I said as I walked out of the room "I know, I'll put them in the craft room" To which Michelle hastily replied "No, don't put them in there." When I inquired why not she looked at me a bit bemused and it turns out that she had heard "I'll put them in your bathroom" Which explains the response.
   I decided it would be really funny to sneak it into her bathroom and surprise her with it. So one day while she was at work I put the small snowman in her tub, where you couldn't see it unless you were on the toilet or turning on the shower (I made sure you'd see/feel it before you turned on the shower)

Turns out this precaution was a good thing, since that's how Michelle found him, when she went to take a shower and she touched him as she reached in to turn the knob. She was surprised. Success!
   Thus the snowman hide and seek game was born. It turned into quite the thing for a while. Over the next few weeks he got to see lots of new places:

My bed.

I came home from church to find him that way.

Kassie's Closet

It took her a few weeks to find him. I think it was only when she was packing stuff up to move (she was getting married soon) that he turned up...

under our kitchen sink!

He barely fit. It was quite surprising every time you needed to do the dishes and went to get the soap.

Placed there after she went to bed one evening because I know where he spare keys are

Behind Diana's door

 Like a creeper!

In Diana's closet

She took too long to move him, so I moved him for her...

Michelle's bed

 We completely covered him with the pillows, but that doesn't work for a picture. She was quite surprised by this one.

In mine and Diana's bathtub

 This time with his friend who got evicted from the craft room.

And now they're happily residing in the doorway of the storage room, waiting to startle whoever needs something from in there... which is pretty much only ever me. Which is funny because I'm the one that put them there = )
