Summer plans

Is anyone ready for summer!!?? I am! Our crazy Indiana winter is just that CRAZY! Rain,snow,rain,snow not at all a real winter.

I want to do sooo much this summer since we didn't do much last summer.

• family pictures
• park
• Indiana Beach
• zoo
• museum
• swim
• day road trips

I can't wait. Cassie is getting old enough to enjoy the stuff we like to do in the summer. Expect a ton of pictures to be taken!!

Where is Elfton!?

So it's been awhile since I posted. We have been super busy this month.

Elfton has been around, he's been found in the girls John Deer Tractor,in Shaylee's lunch bag, he was on the couch watching tv cuddled in a blanket, and this morning he was in the kitchen with my cell phone texting santa!

Elf on the shelf

Ok so I am going to be honest. I think it's stupid to spend $30 on a creepy UGLY elf. yes you get a book with it big deal it's still VERY overpriced in my opinion.

I decided that we could find a CUTE elf and not spend more than $5 on it and do the same thing with it. So I did at Hobby Lobby for $3!! He's adorable and we are doing the same thing you do with the official elf on the shelf.
I call myself self crafty and cheap! LOL

ALL that matters is that my girls love it. I honestly KNOW that Shaylee saw the official elf and thought he was scary so this was good I got the cute cheap one.

Dec 1 where is Elfton??

Today he was flying the girls FP Little People airplane!

Nov.30 Where is Elfton?

Elfton showed up on the doodle pad this morning he drew the girls a kitty.

Elf on the Shelf

Meet Elfton our version of Elf on the Shelf since I think it's honestly silly to spend $30 on a ugly elf. I LOVE the concept to it which is what we are following but we wanted a cheaper elf. Elfton was found at Hobby Lobby for $3. He's cute and he will last for years to come.

You can bash me if you want that's just what I think personally. If you want to spend the $30 on it so be it. I am cheap or thrifty if you want to call me that.

We started it on Thanksgiving day so earlier than most people. He has been all over the place already. The girls take maybe 1 minute to find him they are that good finding him. Shaylee and Cassie still get yelled at daily and I threaten to have Elfton leave for good he did go away for about 2 days then he came back.

Today he was reading a Elmo book and fell asleep.
