Ellie the Elf Day #1!

Regan now has an Elf watching her until Christmas time and her name is Ellie. Of course, she couldn't wait until December so we have Ellie keeping her eye on Ray now. If you don't have this adorable Elf - get one! It's not only fun for kids but I'm having a blast coming up with how to set Ellie up for Regan to see day after day.

Yesterday was our first day with Ellie the Elf. Regan and I read the book and the second we got to the page that says "I can't speak to you, so says Santa Claus. All of us elves have to follow his laws." Regan said, "but it doesn't say anything about writing letters!" which just meant that gave me one more job to do. Now Regan expects letters from Ellie every now and then. Good grief! Ha!

So to begin this new tradition, we watched a movie and the second Ray passed out we were setting Ellie up! Ellie wasn't too creative for her first night since she was so tired from her long trek from the North Pole ;) but when Ray woke up this morning she had a letter from Ellie and then of course had to find her...HANGING FROM THE CEILING FAN! Silly Elf! ;) HA!

Now, funny part about this is that Regan NEVER turns fans on. We have never seen her turn a fan on without us telling her to do so. But something in her made her want to turn on the family room fan this morning, where Ellie of course was hanging. How in the world does that happen? Ha.

Let's just say, this will be a fun next couple weeks. I have a few tricks and fun things for Ellie to do up my sleeve! :)
