Treats & our Elf

We spent some great time as a family this holiday season making treats for others.  Over a span of a week we got it all done. Yay!  Carter was so cute wanting to put on his Santa hat and run to each door and deliver the popcorn bags.  We drove around the neighborhood and Carter would jump out the car and run to each door.  It was so fun to watch!  Poor Ashlynn was sick and didn't have the energy to help.  Then, Carter got the flu bug from Ashlynn and had to sit out making the reindeers.  So, it was a trade off.  Then, finally it was time to make the candied almonds with a crockpot, which turned out so yummy.  I will definitely be making these again..very soon!   

Here are a few places we found our "Elf" this year. This is always a fun tradition for our family to see where he ends up each morning.  We also enjoyed the movie that came this year about our friend. (Thanks Grandma Frankie for sending it our way!) 

Our elf "Buddy" is now sitting in our tree waiting to go back in his box to make his appearance next year.
