Cole's elf finally showed up on our front porch tonight! And he arrived in true redneck style.....on a Monster Truck!!! I thought he was supposed to arrive on Thanksgiving but now that I see he was traveling from the North Pole on a Monster Truck, I understand his delayed arrival :) Although I think Santa realizes that Cole is too young to really understand how his magical elf works, he wanted him to have one this year so that we can document it and look back on in the future.
Since Cole isn't quite old enough to name his elf, we are simply calling him "elf" this year...how original huh! Although I must say, after seeing his vehicle of choice for is first appearance, I'm tempted to name him Cousin Eddie :) "Elf" even brought along an activity book with all sorts of fun things for Cole to do over the next month...how cool!!!
We have been on the go nonstop over the past couple of months. The house is decorated for Christmas and I will try to post pictures of it all soon.....the key word is "try" :)Cole is growing up waaaaay too fast. He knows a few animal sounds like dog and lion and is saying a few more words too! His real talent is spotting flags....yes that is right....the boy can spot an American flag from a mile away and everytime he sees one he yells over and over (very loudly) "DAG"!!!! (which of course is supposed to be "FLAG"!!!) Driving up and down hwy 31 is now much more interesting and I promise you that there are LOTS of flags to be seen on hwy 31 :) I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!! We have sooo much for be thankful for :)
