Frogs, Snails & Puppy Dog Tails

Look who dropped by.

The boys elves made it. Henderson(Houston's elf) and McKinley(Levi's elf) made their entrance sometime today while we were all gone. The boys are so much fun at this age and this time of year is really exciting watching them. I have it priority for them to know the real meaning of CHRISTmas but I also love to watch their eyes light up at all the magical stuff that takes place this time of year. Who knows what these little guys will get into before they return on CHRISTmas Eve. What is so weird is, as you know, the elves have already been named by Santa, but McKinley was actually a girl name I had picked out some 7 years ago for Levi if he had been a girl(named after my Dad)...WEIRD. Merry CHRISTmas!!

We have no mantle, we have no living room drapes. We once had living room curtains. Curtain rod thingys were left on the windows, hence we use them as stocking holders. Go ahead and say it..Redneck. Anyway, the elves found it perfect to grab the stockings after they climbed through the window.

They were really excited.



They have been sprinkled and left with their crackers and water for the night. Wonder where they will be in the AM after a night of mischief and fun?

Have the kids write Santa today for an elf until CHRISTmas, order them today and they will be here by Monday. Mine came in 2 days. U choose by girl/boy, and the color of their hair. Cute website.Love ya.
