Rudy Returns

Will has been wondering for a week when the elf was going to come back to visit us. I had intended on him making his grand appearance the morning after Thanksgiving. Things just got hectic and Rudy never showed. Will heard at school that if you put out crackers and water for your elf, it just might lure them from the North Pole.

Last night the boys decided to take matters into their own hands. They were ready for Rudy to visit! We put out some crackers and water on our cute elf plate and went to bed with visions of waking up to a little red guy hiding out somewhere in our house!

 Rudy did not disappoint....he is a sucker for crackers!

Not only did he show up, but he brought snow covered doughnuts straight from the North Pole, along with some new Christmas books to spice up our nighttime reading routine!

The boys were stoked to find Rudy nestled in a candle holder above our mantle holding none other than the Baby Jesus. We felt it only right Rudy make his debut with a focus on the true meaning of Christmas.

Will is super into Rudy this year (the first really since Rudy started visiting us two years ago...). I can't wait to see what kind of mischief he gets into this year!
