Guess Who's Back?

Well, it IS the most wonderful time of the year, and guess who is back in town?  Yep, our crazy elves.  Sage had been asking for them since Halloween.  She actually wanted them to come trick or treat, but they were too busy finishing up some things at the North Pole so that they could come for the Christmas season.  So they sent a package with a few gifts and a letter explaining their absence back then.  But that's a memory because they are back and in full elf fashion, they hit the ground running.  Last week, I'd been gone all day and when I brought the kids home from school, Jaggar walked up on the porch and said, "ELVES!"  or actually "ELFS!"  Sage ran up to the porch and screamed with delight.  FINALLY.  I'd just mailed her letter that day, and they come fast!  We couldn't believe that they painted the house.  True story, I sent Travis a picture and all he could see was the red.  He thought an Alabama fan had sprayed the house to get back at him for all the smack talk.  lol.  It's funny that all he could see was the red because ironically that's all we can STILL see.  Yeah...the green came off so easily...the red?  Not so much.  So now we look like we live in the projects until Travis decides to give it a go at removing it.

 The kids were SO excited.  This is such a contrast to Jaggar's reaction last year.  Remember that?  lol I still have that pic on my phone.  He's into it this year, and it's a fight every morning between the two of them to tell me what the elves did.
 First morning?  Potato sack races.  Sage was not happy because Jaggar was blocking Mickey in the photo.  She wants the photo opps to show the full effect of what happened in the night.  More to come on their antics.  It's gettin' wild up in here.
