Elf on the Shelf Breakfast + Giveaway

Good morning sweet readers!

My angel boys woke up to a special breakfast surprise today.

 Cookie the Elf arrived for Christmastime and prepared a festive breakfast
for Carson and Slade to kick off the holiday season.

  He so thoughtfully prepared reindeer and snowman donuts as well as a medley of other fun
 Christmas treats. Hot chocolate was poured and smiles were all around.

The boys had a great time... we read the story of Elf on the Shelf, read Cookie's letter to them,
then let them "write" their letters to Santa. I ordered these precious letters last year
and they came in a set of 4. We read last year's letters too, so fun!

 

 We are so excited to have Cookie back around everyday to "watch" over the boys
and remind them to be sweet and obedient. It's a fun little tradition... and thanks to Pinterest,
I have a million great ideas that Cookie can do during the month of December.
Carson definitely "gets" it this year, so it should be LOTS of fun!

{Creating your own Elf on the Shelf Breakfast is so very easy. All I did was cover a card table 

in Christmas wrapping paper and set it up in front of our undecorated Christmas tree. 

The donuts are so fun and so inexpensive. The other decorations and fun things were mostly 

gathered in the $1 bins at Target, the Dollar Tree, or things I already had. In case you caught a glimpse, the granny-looking chairs we're sitting in were passed down to me and have yet 

to be recovered & painted. Our kitchen chairs were too wide for the Santa Hat chair covers, 

so those lovely chairs made an appearance for our Elf on the Shelf Breakfast. 

Gotta make it work! It was SO worth it and SUCH a fun memory!}

If you'd like to start this tradition THIS YEAR with your kids... 

Carson and Slade would LOVE to give you your very own Elf on the Shelf. 

Since December 1st is just days away (we started a little early so we could 

share our breakfast with Daddy)... the giveaway will end Sunday evening 

so I can ship it out to the winner ASAP. Tis the Season!
