Jane is practicing her driving skills

Took a little longer for Adrian to find Jane this morning.  He found her in the front entrance behind gate.   She even found some drivers for each of the cars.

Elves need caffeine to?

We woke up to find Jane making coffee.

As every kid woke up this morning they and asked the same question "How will dad make his coffee? "..  maybe jane was  feeling grumpy and wanted some caffeine.  

It's a good thing dad has a tassimo or we would have also had  grumpy dad!

Missionary for a day

Gingerbread house hotel

Christmas tree

The boys were responsible for decorating the Christmas trees this year!

Jane and the Candy Canes

Today we found Jane in the Christmas tree with a bunch of Candy canes.  It was hard to see Jane past all the candy canes she was holding.  We think she was greedy, and hungry and wants to eat them all.  She will have a stomach ache tomorrow. I am sure!  Adrian thinks she will be so sick she will have to stay at the north pole for a day.

Fishing indoors is fun until someone gets hurt.

Today we found Jane on top of the fish tank looking for some dinner.  Adrian  came for moms phone to take these pictures.  This looked like fun until the excitment of the lynch household at 6:30 am on a Saturday  morning startled her, causing her to jump and  lose her grip on the rod and fall almost 5 feet to the floor below narrowly escaping fallling into the fish tank herself.

The number 1 rule of having an elf is "no one is allowed to touch the elf". Her magic would leave her and she would be unable to return to the north pole and report to santa. 

To save Jane from this fate, Kenny quickly used some clean kitchen tongs and picked Jane back up off the floor. (Jane still has scars from her first encounter with our dogs when she fell onto the floor the first year she was here.)
We think she will be ok.

Jane is laying with jesus

We found Jane laying down today.  After hanging upside down yesterday i guess she needed to recoup.   So she found a spot with moms nativities and made herself comfortable.

Elf Jane is back

We spent part of the day adding Christmas lights around the living room and on the Christmas tree.   Not wanting to be left out,  Jane must have tried to string her own lights...oops!

Halloween is over, let the snow begin

Halloween was beautiful.  Then came the snow.
This is what we woke up to this morning.  At 7:00am Adrian came into our room to ask if he could go out and play in it!  He was so excited.  The boys have been out several times since then.

The dogs and the parents were not quite as excited.

Halloween

We had beautiful weather for Halloween.  The kids didn't add extra layers or wear jackets, they were happy to head out in just their costumes.

We walked far enough feet hurt, kids had to pee, knees were sore, and candy bags were too heavy.  We then called daddy to come rescue us.

We were excited to see one of our fishes giving birth.  
Unfortunately,childbirth was too much and our momma molly and her 10 babies didn't make it.

New fishes

A great friend shared a few grown mollies and 10 little babies to our fish tank.  Its was fun to watch them swim around and play.

Taking a moment to play in the leaves with the boys.
