Elf on the Shelf

We had some fun this Christmas Season with our Elves. We have a Peyton Manning Denver Bronco Elf, Henry the Elf (New for our New Baby Brother), Jack, and Tug our Phillies Elf.

Our elf has arrived and brought some friends. Jack and Henry was over the boys during Christmas and Broncos Peyton Manning watches over during the first football season. My son loves the elf and we have to do it twice a day because he travels to watch him at school.

Boldly elves stole my phone and took selfies to replace out Christmas pictures

Our elves celebrated the 2 week countdown to Rogue One yesterday

It's snowing outside so the elves decided to build a snowman inside

Someone was using brothers baby bouncer last night

I guess there was a movie night last night at our house we didn't know about

Let it Snow! Too cold to make snow angels outside so they brought the mess inside

Gingerbread House Day

I think the elfs got confused when Pokemon Go said that you could hatch new Pokemon

Woke up to the elves watching star wars and playing with some of our star wars toys, they even brought us a new ghost ship.

Birthday elfs!

Bleach Shirts

My son is obsessed with the show Octonauts but you can't find the anything to buy in the store because its based in the UK. My husband got the great idea to make him a shirt using a bleach technique. He printed out the picture he wanted using freezer paper. Cut it out the image so that it was revered and the image was the only part of the shirt showing. He then ironed it onto the shirt. Using bleach in a spray bottle he sprayed the image. Once you remove the freezer paper, you can see that the areas you bleached are a different color then the rest of the shirt. Step 1: Print our image you want Step 2: Cut out the image, leaving the outline Step 3: Iron on to shirt Step 4: Using bleach in a spray bottle, spray the area of the shirt showing, inside the outline Step 5: Peel of freezer paper Step 6: Rinse and let dry It came out great!

Octoanuts Birthday Party

For my son's 4th Birthday he decided he wanted an Octonaut birthday party. We had so much fun making all the decorations for this party. Most of the ideas came from Pinterest or my husband's crazy thinking :) Pin the Eye Patch on Kwazii Homemade Octonaut Hats Applesauce Kelp Cakes My husband created wooden cutouts for photos, we decoupaged images on we printed from the website. Our local Gerritys grocery store made a Octopod Cupcake Cake from a design I created. We added gummy sharks and M&Ms for more details. My husband made a Jello Snotblob because my son is obsessed with the Christmas Octonaut episode.
