Pip the Elf



The other night we went over to my mom's for a special treat for the kids. I had heard of The Elf on the Shelf from another blog and was telling my mom about it. Last weekend her and Joe were at Dollywood where the author of the book was. They were able to get a signed copy for all the grandkids.
As the story goes Santa sends a scout elf to everyones house to watch what goes on, both good and bad. Every night the elf takes a trip to the North Pole to tell Santa all that was seen and heard. And each morning he returns to our house in a different spot. The kids wake up every morning and get to find him. We have had so much fun with our little elf. If you have small children I highly recommend this!






Listening to the story.








Georgia's Christmas Program

Georgia had her first school performance last week and I was so proud of her, she did so well.









Santa came to visit Georgia's school yesterday. I am so glad she got to tell Santa what she wanted. A few weeks ago we went and waited about 30 minutes at the mall to see Santa and after waiting all that time the only thing Georgia had to tell Santa was that, as she says, " C.J. is allergic for peanut butter". You know, just in case Santa was thinking about bringing him PB&J sandwiches I guess.

Girl Scouts

This has been Marina's first year doing Girl Scouts. She has really enjoyed it. Here she is at her last meeting getting her first badges.





Last weekend Marina got to participate in the Duncan parade with her Girl Scout's troop.
Here's Georgia waiting for Marina to go by.
