Johnny the Elf is back!

Guess who came back to our house on December 1st?!  You got it--Johnny the Elf is back and in full effect.  The kids were SO happy to see that he came back again this year.

Jackson was even amazed at Johnny's new handwriting skills.  I told him that I guess that's "elf cursive" and he must have learned it this year in school.  He agreed, and said, "he did a really good job, didn't he?!"  Way to go, Johnny.

We have found him taking a marshmallow bath set out by Lila.  She remembered that he did that last year and thought it was so funny.  We went ahead and poured some marshmallows and candy corns in a bowl and low and behold, the next morning we found him lounging in it!  Today he is reclining in our sugar canister, but my favorite was when we found him holding baby Jesus.  Such a sweet little elf.  We can't wait to see all the silliness that will ensue over the next 20 days.  Welcome back, Johnny!  We've missed you.
