Elf on the Shelf: Day 18

Buddy was very thoughtful today... 

He must have known that Mommy Willis

kinda... sorta.... caught a little bit of Grant's cold....

(and I mean kinda sorta because I've been 

downing On Guard Essential Oil like crazy so 

my throat isn't quite that scratchy.... and my

nose isn't all that stuffy.... my head hurts like 

I'm getting a cold but my body is fighting 

back with the help of essential oils)

He knew that Daddy Willis would be gone all day

and that Mommy Willis didn't feel up to doing much....

... so he planned a movie day for Mommy and Grant! 

He got himself all snug-as-a-bug in his stocking and

got the remotes out.... 

Grant said "Silly Elf, a Stocking isn't a blanket"

He left us out some treats and a not so subtle nudge

that he wants to have a Toy Story marathon! 

Even Santa. Jr and Kanga were ready to watch a movie....

Grant thought the whole thing was so funny...

he started doing his laugh where he falls back and

kicks his legs up, laughing like a jolly Santa Claus....

.... wish I could give you a video of it because it is hilarious! 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 17

This morning Mommy Willis woke up to find that

Buddy had a little fun on her desk last night.... 

He made a rope out of the stale Twislers and went 

Bungee Jumping....  

He put a bunch of post it notes with jokes and sayings for

Grant like "You're Awesome" 

Unfortently, when Grant woke up he threw a

huge temper tantrum when he was getting dressed....

By the time we finally got done getting him dressed, 

he discovered that Buddy didn't like all the yelling and had left.... 

But, lucky for him.. 

Buddy didn't go very far!

As soon as Grant started acting nicer.... 

Buddy came back!

After Lunch, he discovered Buddy had moved to his desk....

Buddy must have known Mommy Willis wanted

access to her computer! 

When I turned my computer on.... we also discovered

that our Silly Elf put his picture as my background!

What a silly, silly elf! 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 16

We have really enjoyed having our little Elf around....

... but today he really out did himself!

This has probably been Gran'ts favorite day....

Our little Buddy put himself in a jar!

Grant - "What a silly, silly Elf!!"

We discovered a note... 

... "But, Mommy, I can't read!!" 

Don't worry Lil' Willis, Daddy will read it for you.... 

it says that Buddy wants to go see the Christmas lights

at the Portland Winter Wonderland race track....

Buddy told Grant that he put himself in a jar

so that Grant could take him with us!

Grant literally leaped for joy, luckily I got it with my camera...

He was so excited to carry Buddy with him all day long! 

Mommy Willis will document all the awesome 

places Grant takes Buddy today.... 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 15

Yesterday our little guy was a super good boy....

and Buddy noticed!

When he came back from the North Pole...

he landed on our Christmas Countdown...

He left a note for Grant....

I had Grant change the calendar today...

as I do every morning...

and as he walked away without noticing Buddy...

I gave him a little nudge to look a little higher...

.......

..............

OHHH, THERE'S BUDDY!! 

Then we went in Grant's room 

and I read Buddy's letter....

As you can see, Lil' Willis was 

super happy with what it said! 

What a sweet Elf! 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 14

Looks like our elf was up to no good last night...

He turned our milk pink 

(I think he was going for red...)

Before we had breakfast Grant discovered that Buddy

had written all over the mirrors in the house....

When I asked him to get the milk this morning... 

he finally found that silly elf holding a pen!

Buddy felt right at home in the cold fridge! 

Grant thought it was so funny! 

He wanted a picture with the milk... 

While I was pouring his cereal

he discovered what else Buddy was up to...

Giving people silly faces!

Buddy also left Grant a brand new sugar cereal

and since Grant isn't usually allowed to have sugar cereal...

He was super excited!

Later on he discovered that Buddy had given mustaches 

to all the characters on his cereal box, too! So Silly!

Mommy Willis tried to get pictures of the mirror, 

but it would't show up. 

On the mirrors Buddy wrote "Be Good!" 

He also put a circle with a mustache 

and the put a sign that said...

"Put face here"

Grant put his face in the circle and had a mustache... 

so funny! 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 13

Our silly elf returned last night....

After a long trip to the North Pole, 

Buddy landed up high....

On top of one of our speakers!

It was a good hiding spot because Lil' Willis

had a difficult time finding him this morning... 

But, he was super excited once he did! 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 12

Our silly elf was having a blast last night!

He created a zip line in our living room! 

Looks like he is having fun!

What a silly silly elf! 

Grant couldn't stop laughing...

He thinks Buddy is the best Elf ever. 

What will Buddy do next? 

Elf on the Shelf: Day 11

Look what we found our little Elf doing.... 

He was reading The Elf on the Shelf 

book to all of Grant's friends!

Funny Elf!  

Lil' Willis really thinks his elf is a funny Buddy!

Can you find Buddy?

Mickey Mouse (M&M) is resting on Nemo to look at the pictures....

Big Red and Santa Jr. are leaning in....

Lighting McQueen helping hold the book.... 

I see Mr. Banana, Rainbow, Paris the Christas Dog, 

Big Bear, Fuzzy, Nerd and Kanga Bear!

Pretty much everyone that is important was there... :)

Elf on the Shelf: Day 10

Last night Buddy brought Lil' Willis back 

some candy from the North Pole... 

Apparently... he couldn't contain his sweet tooth.....

He ate candy all the way to the table.... 

That silly elf!

At least there was still PLENTY of candy left for Grant! 

Meanwhile.... 

Paris the Christmas Dog, M&M, Santa Jr and Kanga Bear

were getting into some mischief of their own!

Look at the mess they left from their 

late night game the night before...

There they are....

just hanging out on the couch with Christmas hats on....

This is the look Grant had when he saw all the trash on the floor.....

Mommy Willis was trying to hurry to get a pick and cut him off...

But, she still managed to get his reaction....

Then he found his Elf and the candy he left...

as you can see he was very excited about the candy!
