We ditched our sweaters this year, and put on our pajamas! I love that all of our friends are able to get away for some adult time every year – another one for the books!

Elfing Around
Herbie has been so busy lately that he got himself stuck in our snowman decoration…
He must have wanted to relax the next day, because we found him watching TV by a little fireplace!
After we looked everywhere the next morning, we finally found Herbie in our refrigerator. The girls were full of giggles when they realized he put googly eyes on everything in our fridge – including himself! He was hiding in our cheese drawer!
He must have been up to no good the next day, because we found he got caught in one of our cabinets!
Then next morning he was full of jokes as he left a knock knock joke for the kids to read – Knock Knock – who’s there ? – Mary. – Mary who? – Mary Christmas!! They repeated that joke all day long.
We found him in the mudroom on our calendar the next day – he circled his favorite date!
The kids loved that he played tic tac to with our marshmallows. They wanted to play too!
The next morning we found Herbie playing our Operation game – with a surgical mask on! Jules said she didn’t hear the buzzer go off…Herbie must be good at this game!
He must have needed some caffeine the next morning when we found him in a coffee cup under the Keurig machine. Mamma was not happy when she couldn’t have her afternoon coffee that day!
Herbie made it up by cleaning the bathroom mirror – with Mom’s favorite product – Scentsy Counter Cleaner :)
The next day we found him coloring in a Christmas coloring book – he even wrote his name on one of the pages!
He’s BACK!
Our buddy from the North Pole, Herbie, came back to our house the day after Thanksgiving. We were at our neighbors house, and we walked in to find a surprise. He hung streamers in our doorway, and he wrote a welcome message in marshmallows! The kids faces were priceless.
All that flying from the North Pole must have made him hungry…we found him eating snacks in the pantry!
The next morning, Kennedy and Jules were in awe. Herbie was on a balance beam doing a trick! Kennedy said, “Now how does he know how to do that!?”
I heard giggles from the kitchen the next day when the girls found Herbie disguising himself as a reindeer!
Herbie must sense not to fly too low this year. The next day he was sitting up high on Easton’s tractor. He must know it’s harvesting season!
It was so sweet when we found him praying by baby Jesus in the nativity set.
The kids were laughing at his shenanigans the next morning. Herbie made a “shoe shoe” train out of a mixture of their shoes!
The next morning I heard, “Moommmmmmaaa!!” Herbie must have gotten into some trouble, because we found him all taped up to the mirror!
We love this time of year, and we love that Herbie adds some magic to the season every day. We can’t wait to see where he will end up next!
