Saturday night seems to be Buddy’s and Barbie’s date night. This time they brought along some other couples to enjoy cookies and green elf milk. Buddy even made some reindeer cookies. Quite the charmer!
Christmas must be very close because last night Buddy was measuring our stockings. He’ll need the proper dimensions to help Santa plan for the big night!
We enjoyed a nice cool day at the Dallas Arboretum with a brief visit with Snow White, a glance at Dasher, and some fresh air and running around! One of our favorite stops was with these giant nutcrackers. We thought we would do an impersonation…whaddya think?
What? That was our reaction this morning (check it out below). There was quite a line at the slide last night. I guess everyone wanted in. Munchkin girl shouldn’t have gone head first. Yesterday, Dad showed us how to squish the packing peanuts. Mason showed Buddy in case he needs that skill in the North Pole after Christmas. We want to be sure he gets the most out of his time with us this season!
This morning we found Buddy in the bathtub…well, in his own little elf bathtub filled with marshmallows and complete with a rubber ducky. It looked too delicious to us, so Mason decided we should be the “drain” and empty Buddy’s bath so he can go back to his perch on the piano. You can watch us drain the tub in the video below. Yummy!
Today we caught Buddy fishing in the kitchen! He crafted a fishing pole out of a Twizzler and ornament hanger. He’s pretty clever! Nice catch, Buddy!
The Grinch and Charlie Brown have different views on Christmas. Buddy must have known this because he called them together (along with their faithful pups) for a meeting of the minds and a little storytime. Charlie and Buddy shared the Charlie Brown Christmas Story with The Grinch and Max last night.
We know Buddy works hard each night to get to the North Pole and back in time to visit with his new friends and spread Christmas cheer. But somehow our first instinct upon finding Buddy each day is to dissassemble his gatherings. We’re careful not to touch Buddy (only moms and dads can touch elves – kids wipe the magic off). Check out our prompt dissassembly from this morning in the video below. Now if Mom and Dad could figure out how to get us to put all of our other stuff away so quickly…hmmm…
Last night we had tons of fun playing Toy Story Mania on the Wii. Buddy must have heard all the excitement and felt left out because we found him and all of our Toy Story friends playing this morning. We wonder if Buddy or Woody won?
At a very very early hour of the morning (like before the sun came up), Morgan woke Mom up by saying, “Barbie is back. Buddy is in love with her.” We had already located Buddy after his most recent adventure. Looks like he took up some racing with a local. Upon further examination we learned that it wasn’t just any local…it was Ken!
