Catching Up

We have been busy byt have not had much time on the computer lately. The younger 2 boys have been sick so we have been trying to stay healthy. B. boy was nice enough not to throw up in front of us when we were decorating the bathroom windows. We got to play with cars one night, they have so many. Last night we decided to hang out in the freezer a bit because we miss the cold.
Hopefully we can get back on more and keep every one up to date. Can't believe we are only here for 17 more days, our time here goes by way too fast.

More decorations











We noticed that the boys have started doing some decorating in their hallway but it's not enough. So we brong some back from the North Pole and added some more. You can never have enought. We hung sparkly snowflakes on the walls big snowflakes from each door, however they kept falling down, I think they were too heavy. Garland from the ceiling, it was so much fun. JJ got into the tape and made a mess. He usually does as the youngest.

Story Time







The boys have so many wonderful Christmas book, they really should read them more. We decided to take a look and read the to some of our friends. One was about Santa being grumpy. I thought that was a secret that Santa had bad days like everyone else. Charlie found a cool book that talked about Elf school. We missed our friends looking at that but didn't miss school. JJ found one about animals at Chriastmas. There are so many more I think we will have to check them out next.

So Hungry




Yesterday we decided to check out the playmobil advent calendar the boys would be getting in the morning. There was a funny catalog that had Santa and a dragon on every page. The next night we were hungry and decided to make something on our menu. Spaghetti with syrup. Yum!


Wheeee











Weeee we had such fun sliding down the banister. It was so much fun but you better stop before you hit the end, ouch! Glad we got this in while we did because the next day They put up the decorations and now there is a garland there, no more sliding.

What's for dinner?




While looking for some snacks we discovered somthing new. I see that the Mrs. Clause of the house has a menu board. I guess she posts what they are going to have to eat for the week. Well I (Charlie) had some better ideas in mind so I changed the menu around. We are having things like pancakes, syrup and sprinkles, Spagheetti noodles, M&Ms, poptarts and syrup, Pizza, Hot chocolate, milk, cookies and syrup.... sounds so much beter. Wonder if she will change it or fix what we want???



Time to Decorate







So we noticed that the boys had a new Christmas tree in the hallway but it was empty. What good is a empty tree? So we decided to bring some ornaments that look like us to put on the tree. Here we are trying to add some fun to their tree. I am sure that soon they will have plenty of their own ornaments on it but at least we got to be first this time.

Well we made our way back on Fri. night after Thanksgiving. It's always so exciting to be back. We spent our first night exploring the house to see what is new. We left lots of little notes around the house on their stuff. Even thoug we were very still we could hear how excited the boys were to find us. The boys are at going to be a lot of fun this winter and we are going to have even more fun!
I can't wait to tell everyone about our adventures. Let the Christmas season begin!

A Surprise Visit

We decided to stop by for a surprise visit with the boys. We were really good, stayed out of trouble and just left a treat. We left a mail box for the boys w/ some Halloween candy in it and a note. We told them how many days till Halloween then how many days until we come. That middle boy BT is a smart cookie. We forgot the mail box we made at the North Pole so we got one at Ben Franklin and he found the receipt inside. Oops... We'll be more careful next time. We are really busy at Elf School but are so ready for a break. It's hard to be good all the time. Only 43 more days till Thanksgiving and our visit to Virginia.

It's getting close


All the elves and I are busy getting ready for our busy season here at the North Pole. We have learned so much since last Christmas but is so ready for our break. It's hard work drinking hot chocolate, learning the way to make toys, trying to come up with new ideas for toys, making that little turn in candy canes without breaking them, playing in the snow, and cleaning reinderr poo.
We can't wait for November to see the boys again. (and play w/ their toys)
