    I have just been writing my letter from Santa as my elf will not be arriving till Sunday with me being so unorganised. I had a thought on the letter to add a signature from Santa and found that if you google santasignature you can get an image to use on the letter.
    Hope this helps.

    Also to say thanks to harib0uk for doing my passport for me. It is brilliant thank you.
    Now just to get illustrator and photo shop to try the journal.

    I think that if Ralph stole the chocs from my boys' calendars he'd be straight out on his ear!

    She was caught with a choccie coin from the wooden train calendar ( has little drawers! ) .....DD's words were " It is a good job we found out now or she might have eaten them all!!"


    Thanx to lexuslass for the elf name place :)


    You are welcome Queenbee!

    we have wooden train advent calendars too! although, you are braver than me... I am putting my chocolate in the drawers each evening... else I know they'd disappear if I filled up all 24!

    Well, my elves have been cutting out snowflakes this evening... and I have hung them all above the breakfast table... the elves have fallen asleep among all the cut out bits on the table (OMG.. can't believe the mess I have made for myself tomorrow! lol!) and both have a can (of pop) by the side of them!!

    :D How much fun is this!! :D wonder if we will all feel the same come December 23rd!! :rotfl:

    Im loving reading all these posts.
    Our elf Elvis McTumshie (his great grandfather was Scottish before they emigrated to the North pole) arrived by post after nursery this morning. He was in a box surrounded with 'snow' and a letter to the little uns. My dd (4) was intrigued but ds whos 2 wasnt very interested, infact he preferred the box!.
    Elvis came with a wee bed with a pillow and a blankie. My dd and I went shopping with gran this afternoon so Elvis had to come, she was showing him the local sights. He in the fridge for tonight as im to tired to think of any antics but oh is on the case for tomorrow, he's getting more into it than I am lol.
    ive started a blog but havnt figured out how to make the backing all xmassy, once I make it look better Ill post it. Happy Elfing.

    peppermint has escaped up to the loft to retrive the xmas cds using a rope ladder (cocktail sticks and string will post a picture on blog tomorrow as i'm to tired and have a spelck in my lip :( ) we'll find him tomorrow morning suspended on said ladder with cd's all over the floor.
    Reg however is practising flying and has landed on the light up village roofs.... we had a incident earlier to when DS went to leave him a carrot and the dog got it instead she was not happy but it made me laugh.
    They are leaving some magic growing things out for them to have a race with to see who's grow the best it's a one of these christmast_400.jpg&w=123&h=200&ow=350&oh=200bought cheap ina charity shop (hope they work we have a tree, snowman and santa)

    you should do it now... my boy is 3 in February... he is loving it... (my 18 month old DD has one cause we didn't want to leave her out - she just wants to kiss hers!!)

    ok, he doesn't understand it fully, but he was totally overwhelmed (well they both were) this morning with the elf turning up at the front door on his advent calendar train and with a colouring book and some pencils!

    He has put his elf in his sleeping bag tonight (with pretend snow in it!) under the christmas tree with his food (some muesli we got when the inlaws visited a couple of weeks ago but didn't open!).

    Can't wait to see his face in the morning when he sees what mess the elves have made in the kitchen! :D

    :rotfl: onetoomany that is fantastic!! I love it!

    Well our elf is going to have to behave himself for a few days as I am in hospital tomorrow all day! :( but he did steal OH's and the childrens money boxes ... I have blogged it all, but now need to think of something easy for tonight and tomorrow night. (Friday isn't too bad as OH will be able to do something as I may not be up to it!

    I'm loving reading what your elfs have been up to I think I'm enjoying this as much as the kids maybe more. We woke up to toilet roll from the bedroom all the way downstairs and all round the front room have blogged it here :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
