december dailys--SNOW and the magic elf

Ok, so now it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!! Last week it snowed just barely, and it did snow like a month and a half ago, but this time it's legitimate! That is, if you count 3-4 inches as being legit, but it's good enough for the boys who live here. It really is a boost to get into the Christmas spirit.

After all the playing was done outside, the boys came in to thaw out and warm up. As they were all playing in the front room, the doorbell rang. They didn't jump up to get it, so I did and found an elf and a note at the door...it's our magic elf, just for our family. And his name is Zack. Zack is watching over the boys to see if they are naughty or nice so he can tell Santa on Christmas Eve.
Ben immediately tried to call Danielle to tell her because her family has one too;). Hopefully the elf will help them remember to be nicer to each other...but I'm not holding my breath too long!!

LOVE the Magical Elf! You do what you have to do, right? I bet that's so fun for the boys. If it were me, I think I'd be a little scared that some little guys was watching me all the time! But that's just paraniod me. I'm sure they love it :o)

Yea you let me know how that goes, maybe there will be one at my house next year.

The concert was good, sorry we didn't get to go with you. If you like the Realms of Glory song you should go to the Sunday performance, we got to hear it 3 times.
