Elf on the Shelf Finale

On Saturday, December 10th, Mr. Elf asked the boys to make their final lists for Santa (not that they didn't add things later!).  He circled the boys dream present (the Lego Death Star) but told them it was too expensive.


Rylan lost his second tooth at dinner on Saturday.  On Sunday we found Mr. Elf tied up in floss.  We think the tooth fairy and Mr. Elf had a run in over night.  Maybe he made her mad???


On Monday we found Mr. Elf swinging from a tire swing that he made from a Lego tire ...



Mr. Elf got a little political on Tuesday ...



On Wednesday Mr. Elf had a sledding accident.  When we found him in the morning, he was hanging upside down from his sled on that was on the railing.


When we got home later in the day, Mr. Elf was on the floor behind the Christmas tree - eeekkk!

On Thursday we found him with his leg propped up and wearing a couple of casts ...


He appears to have healed quickly and was hanging from a wreath on Friday.  He made the boys a countdown to Christmas.


On Saturday we found Mr. Elf in a container with a note telling us he wanted to go on a field trip and we were allowed to take him with us that day.  The boys were so excited to take him to their basketball games!


On Sunday Mr. Elf was playing Spot It with Mr. Wuf.  He also brought with him a new Christmas version of the game.


On Monday Mr. Elf was making a s'more ...


And on Tuesday he turned our pantry door into a penguin!


On Wednesday Mr. Elf was wearing a creeper mask and had downloaded Minecraft to our iPad.  The timing was a great because Carter had the stomach that day (he was up most of the night throwing up) and he was happy to stay home and play Minecraft all day!


On Thursday, Mr. Elf left us a note that he wanted to play hide and seek.


Mr. Elf hid REALLY WELL.  The boys could not find him.  Carter even looked in the mixer and in the cookie jar and never saw Mr. Elf.  I eventually narrowed it down for the boys and told them I saw him in the kitchen and they finally found him!


On Friday, Mr. Elf gave the boys Christmas photo props.


He also made himself some!!!


And took some pictures of himself with them ...



Saturday was our last day with Mr. Elf.  We found him that morning zip-lining into our Christmas tree!!!



We'll see you next year, Mr. Elf!!!
