Buddy the Elf is Back!

We are having lots of fun with Buddy this year! Once the kids knew about the magic, they joined in on being Buddy. For the past few years, we have divided boys and girls and took weekly turns. This year, we asked the kids what they wanted to do. Issa has all of the senior things, Evan is in the thick of wrestling season, and we are all very aware that this will the last year we will all be under the same roof for the whole holiday season. The kids decided that they wanted Brad and I to take back over, and it's actually the first time he and I have done it as a team.

We took a night to design the whole month. We are bringing back some favorites from the early years, but we also brought in an extended story arc like Brad has always done. This year, a pipe burst at the North Pole and the elves need our help to restore the North Pole and get everything ready for Christmas!

Monday has been my favorite so far. Buddy brought a kit of cardboard gingerbread houses so we could build a replica of the North Pole:
We had way too much fun, and I love how cute it is:
We have little elves that have now moved into the North Pole, and we are super excited to see what the rest of the month brings.
