On Thanksigving we welcomed a new addition to the family... Elbie the Elf. Jayden named him because he couldn't say Elf... we all loved the name of our newest family member. His first night with us he learned to spell his name in cereal.
Elbie celebrated the holiday season with us. He was so much fun to have around and could always count on him for a good laugh. Sometimes he was very sweet and I mean sweet as in bringing us treats, other times he was sneaky and would get into trouble, and most importantly other times he would give us gentle reminders of the true importance of the holiday season. I have captured just a few of the silly things Elbie did throughout his time with us.
1.) He decided to make a snow angel (OUT of Flour!!!)
2.) Just hanging around... the best part is believe it or not this took the boys a while to find him.
3.) Elbie is our hero! (on the fire truck)
4.) Looking at Elbie and his sharing skills. He made S'mores over a candle with some friends.
5.) Toilet Papering my tree.... "Oh Elbie" that is what we said almost every morning when we would look for him.
6.) Elbie saying prayers by the manger reminding us of the importance of Christmas.
7.) Stinker trying to figure out how Elbie got so high.
8.) Instead of Where's Waldo .... we said "Where's Elbie?"
9.) Hmmmmmm I wonder where Elbie went?
10.) WOW Elbie brought us a special treat on Saturday morning!!
11.) Splish Splash Elbie was taking a bath... in our kitchen sink!!! Oh Elbie!!!!!
12.) Elbie was missing the North Pole... Im glad he dressed warm.
13.) Sending us a message (in toothpaste)
We all miss Elbie already. Sport even wrote a note recently requesting him to return. I'm no fortune teller, but I think he may make an apperance down the road (wink wink).
