She's Baaaack

Last year, Sage had a special visitor, and she has made her return this year. It's Cara, one of Santa's magic elves, and she's up to just as much mischief this year in our home as ever. Thankfully, she's only here until Christmas Eve when Santa takes all of the elves back to the North Pole.

For those unfamiliar with elves, Santa allows them to visit around Christmastime. They magically show up one morning and bring magic snow with them. Each night, you feed them crackers and water (reminds them of crunching snow and melted snow) and sprinkle their magic snowflakes on them. This makes them come to life in the night, allowing them to get into all kinds of mischief. Sage cannot wait to wake up each morning to see what her crazy elf has done.

One morning, Sage came into the kitchen to find this! Cara had not only painted a picture for Sage, but she also painted the floor! Sage was ecstatic! She even wrote, "Sage did it!" on the floor. Thankfully, that paint was very washable.Another morning, we woke up to find a trail of chalk that led us to her playroom...
where a huge Christmas mural was drawn! Sage said, "Holy cow!"
Cara traced herself on here too and then taped herself to the wall. Silly elf!
