Elf-on-the-Shelf: Popcorn and White Christmas

Max, Max, Max, Max, Max!  This Elf is being ornery!  Yesterday I should have learned my lesson.  I didn't and neither did he!  I changed the password on my cell phone, but didn't think to change the password on my laptop.  Since they were both the same, Max got on my laptop.

Tonight my nephews came over to be with us.  While we were upstairs toward the end of the evening Max really went all out.  We must have been making a lot of noise because I didn't hear a thing.  He popped a bag of popcorn, moved the baby's swing, set up the laptop on the recliner, and started a movie on Netflix!  When I came downstairs he was gently swinging in the swing, on a blanket, with a bowl of popcorn, watching 'White Christmas.'  Now I need to change the password on my laptop too!

I wrote a quick email to Santa to let him know what Max has been up to.  I don't mind too much but, I don't want him to go any further and if he is going to be going to some child's house next year, he needs to shape up a bit.  Oh Max! 

Well, he is in bed; early again and I am going to try to work on some Christmas presents!  I have included a couple of pictures of the 'brat' in action!  Don't laugh; he's in trouble!  Merry Christmas!

Pumpkin Patch with the Family: October 2012

Yesterday we went to the Nickajack Farms as a family.  It was so much fun.  And really challenging.  I am paying for it in spades, but it was so worth it.  I wasn't able to do as much as I normally would like to do with the kids and be ask active as I like to be (stupid foot) but we had a great time.  The kids had a great chance to play together, go through a corn maze, go on a hay ride, and pick pumpkins.  We then finally had the chance to go out for my older brother Andy's birthday and spend some more time together as a family.  It was a really great day and I am glad we had the time together.

Now, today I am spending the day on my bed resting as even walking around with a crutch for the small amount I did was a lot and my foot is really mad (swollen, pained, etc.)  I really hope this gets better soon...Anyway, it is giving me the chance to start editing photos and I have the first set of 15 pictures from yesterday of the kids and family done.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. (Now, I'm off to figure out what I'm doing wrong with my phone to get the rest of my pictures from yesterday uploaded to my computer.  Technology is not my friend right now.)
