The Elf on the Shelf 2012 Recap

This year Santa has heard about our mischievous Lil monster, Sebastian. So he sent an elf to come and watch over him. The Elf's job was to watch Lil Sebastian every day and report back to Santa about his behaviour. Little did Santa know, but the Elf he sent??? Well, he was a bit mischievous himself!

Here is how he spent his time here

Day 24: Make Cookies for Santa

 

Today's activity was to make Santa some cookies!! We did that along with various other things. We spent the day out as a family. Good food, fun activities and came home to making cookies and feeding the reindeer!
I took a lot of pics, but will only post a couple, lol. Otherwise I would go crazy with pics :P

Day on the "town"

Sending last minute letters to Santa via the elves!
(Took kids to Santa's Workshop: very cute)

Sebastian and Skylar each personally decorated 9

Sprinkling the reindeer food

Day 24: Where's Charlie??

Charlie was on top of our lil tree holding a goodbye poem.

The magic was lifted so Sebastian (and Skylar) could give him goodbye loves.

So sweet!!!

Day 23: Where's Charlie??

It was getting late and Sophie was already asleep (in my arms) so this one was sloppier than I would have liked. BUT Sebastian was in love so I consider it a total win!
Using the wrapping roll (the lovely brown paper that wrapping paper is on) I made a quick lil box to hold Elf DonutZ.
Then I quickly decorated some Cheerios w/chocolate and sprinkles and gave them to Charlie to hold.
Sebastian thought they were amazing and ate them, lol.
Skylar admitted she is gonna be sad to see Charlie go. She enjoys looking for him each morning as well, even though she knows it's me.

 

Sloppy donuts lol
