Elf on a Shelf... Day 4

Last night we headed downtown for a Christmas Lights Parade!  (A tradition we started last year... you can see last years pics here.) We had an early dinner, got some hot cocoa & blankets ready, bundled all up and off we went.  Wasn't too cold last night, which was nice... no snow :-(  Boo.  I would like to have snow all of December... it just adds to the Christmas feel!

Madison was so stinking cute all bundled up!  Both girls were very quite while watching the parade all zoned in on the blinking bright lights-- very serious stuff :0)

Of course what's a parade without candy!?!?  We got lots of candy!  Makenzie was told that she could have one sucker when we got home after she was in her pj's.  Silly us, we decided to take the long way home and check out some Christmas lights and that made for a VERY antsy girl in the backseat!  LOL.  Eventually she got her sucker and watched the last few minutes of Jack Frost before she headed off to bed.

I don't think she was the only one that got antsy about having candy in the house.  Our little elf found the candy stashed in my hat and hopped right in and helped himself to a sucker too!
