Our Christmas Elf

On the first day of Christmas, Grama & Grampa Ryan and Great Grama's Plewe and Ryan, delivered some very fun packages. In box #1 came a magical elf that has been sneaking around the house at night or whenever we leave. The first day he came to our house, we found him in the morning, sitting on the table in the middle of breakfast! There had been left a pile of presents on the counter also, and they were sitting, neatly wrapped. Later in the day after playing outside in the snow, we came in to find our Elf sitting in the Christmas tree with the 2nd day of Christmas gift.


This morning as we headed downstairs, he was laying on his tummy, spoon in hand, with hot chocolate ready to be made.


The most puzzling thing he has done yet though is somehow sneak out for the 3rd day of Christmas gift and leave it on the stairs ~ but we were all sitting in the room he did this in, and no one saw him move, what a sneaky guy!



Thank you to our fun Grandparents who have helped make these last couple of days so exciting. Everyone tries to stay busy and not look at him until we notice he is gone, then the search is on to see where he is hiding. Sometimes he shows up with something fun, and sometimes he is just playing hide and seek. What has YOUR Christmas elf done lately?

Well, our elf has been running around the house, doing acrobatics and admiring himself in the mirror, and delivering presents! He is even cleaning our rooms when we're gone, and leaving behind special notes! We named him Eddy, Eddy the elf!
