Elf Off The Shelf

Day 14

Notice the crushed blue candy cane?
Elf stone. I had to get clarification on this one. Elf is a stone so the Lego dudes are mining the ore. I think this might have something to do with Minecraft.

Out of the mouth of Little Dude

I love Christmas programs!! Yeah, you guessed that. Little Dude and I chatted before his program.

Little Dude: Why are we having a Western Christmas program?

Me: We live in the west.

Little Dude: We don't live in Texas. That is the kind of west the program is talking about.

Me: It will be cute.

Little Dude in southern accent: Let's just have rootin' tootin' cowboys from Texas! What about apocalyptic Christmas?

Me: What is an apocalyptic Christmas?

Little Dude in a sing-song Christmas song knock-off voice: Meteor showers destroy your Christmas tree, the Christmas tree falls over and kills all your family and friends....

Me: Who wants an apocalyptic Christmas?

Little Dude: Dr. Who.

Me: What about the season of miracles?

Little Dude: The apocalypse doesn't have miracles.

Me: What about glitter?

Little Dude: Glitter comes from comets and comets destroy Earth--- apocalypse.

Me: What about presents?

Little Dude: The Christmas tree falls over and destroys your presents.

Me: I am going to destroy your presents!

Little Dude: We have a quantum shield generator, so the meteor shower won't hit us!

Me: Go get your rootin' tootin' cowboy shirt on!

Little Dude: It looks like a hippie shirt.

 

Yeah, the season of miracles at our house consists of meteor showers, quantum generators, Dr. Who, death, rootin' tootin' cowboys, hippies, and glitter!

Holiday Programs

Is there anything better than an Elementary school Christmas program?

Yep, that is Resident Little Dude with the cheesy smile! The entire fourth grade played the recorder--- that is a lot of recorder. The music teacher must be a genius to put those things on yarn necklaces.

He pays attention really well.... The expressions are priceless.

Elf Off The Shelf

Day 11

Elf got caught in the cake dome last night with candy canes and a chocolate reindeer. The reindeer had an accident--- must have been the stress of captivity!

Resident teenager and Resident little dude are far too old to believe in a magical elf; we take turns deciding Elf's fate.

The pooping reindeer belongs to Resident little dude!
