Boys and their toys....
Suddenly out popped his head - sorted. Over to a comfy spot....
I didn't even know that this chewy bone was in the basket...heaven knows how long its been there but Zac didn't seem to mind.

Find the Magic Christmas Elf
Where did he go?
This hiding place took us quite some time to find....
My mother knitted these figures quick a few years back now and I remember commenting when I saw the empty crib that she'd forgotten to knit the Baby Jesus. She opened a drawer near by with a wink to show me that she hadn't forgotten, he just hadn't arrived yet and wouldn't until Christmas morning. I've been carrying on the tradition ever since.
I'm away now to carry on with my preparations. This afternoon baking Mince Pies.
Hopefully some will last past the weekend!

Our Magic Christmas Elf
Yet again, he's managed to find us, in fact over the years he's found us no matter where we are in the world. Even when we've been travelling - he's so clever he just knows where we are.
He normally appears on the 1st of December and there's always an excited buzz when he's discovered.
When my son was a wee toot, first thing in the morning he would dash to find out where the Elf was hiding and on occasions we would see him standing very close to the Elf having a very private conversation.....so cute. I would have loved to have been privy to those conversations.
Thankfully, the Elf doesn't live with our Christmas decorations because upon setting up for this years celebrations, I found that we are missing quite a few items, garlands, wreaths, table candle displays etc. I think one large box appears to have been 'lost' in transit shall we say....

A Book Christmas Tree
I have to confess I saw one similar in the Sunday Age Magazine and just had have a go.
Happy Reading
