Elves Rule
The rehearsal party was in full swing, and the air was festive with Christmas music from the grand piano in the library. Trays of drinks and hors d'oeuvre were being passed by butlers dressed as elves.
The future bride came in with her fiancé and stomped over to her mother.
“Dad has ruined everything. What was he thinking? OMG! Elves are soooo 2009..."
At that, she looked up and spied Santa Claus at the piano. He winked at her and she rushed over.
