Skeeter, Elvin and Trixie helped pack the kids backpacks for their first day of school!

2010 Month of the Elf, A Trip To The Cabin

The kids and I took a trip up to our cabin for the holiday weekend, We were pretty busy all weekend, and the kids had no idea that the elves had came along, until our last day, we were walking back to the cabin from the dock, when my DD5 spotted the elves in the woods, playing on thier fort I LOVE the excitement beeming from their smiles!!

2010 Month of the Elf, Day 4

WOO HOO we are FAMOUS!! Skeeter, Elvin, and Trixie were featured over on The Rudolph Day blog!!

To Celebrate they had a little dance party using L's laugh and learn desk/keyboard, you can't see in the picture but Skeeter had a bunch of pins in his feet, the kids had spilled moms box of pins earlier and missed a few while cleaning them up with magnets and poor Skeeter got them in his foot :(

The Elves left the kids a note that they would have to go up to the North Pole for a few days, but they would try to make it back by Wednesday when they go to the State Fair!

2010 Month of the Elf, Day 3

Last night those silly elves saw that mom had her big camera out for a photo shoot and decided to set it up to take a few self portraits using the timer, they couldn't find the tripod so they set it up on a princess chair and balanced it with a tiara ;)

2010 Month of the Elf, Day 2

Today was the start of the Minnesota State Fair. Local TV coverage on it was Crazy, apparently the Elves were a bit jealous of all the rides and thought they needed to go for a little ride.

They left a note for the kids and asked Preston to read them a bedtime story tonight :)

2010 Month of the Elf, Day 1

To kick off the month of the Elf, Trixie and Elvin got into Preston and Eliana's school supplies and art sets, Elvin did not want to use the Princess chair so he pushed it accross the room and stacked up a few of the supplies he found in PD's backpack to make himeself a chair. They left the kids a note telling them that The Big Guy, said that the next month was extra special for elves that scored excellent in the Magic Elf program, that they would get to count down the days until the 100th day before Christmas with their holiday family and since we have this HUGE new house the elves should be sure to help us get into celebration mode! they also told them that Skeeter is hiding and they should try to find him ;)







The Elves also came to visit back in June, when we bought our first home, the day we got our keys and walked in the onlything in the house were the Skeeter, Elvin and Trixie, they had set up the kids' Christmas trees in the livingroom to welcome them HOME!!
