The Elf on the Shelf Brings Advent Calendars

The 1st of December means one thing - the return of the Elf on the Shelf. This year as Brandon is now no longer a "Believer" I have two helpers to come up with daily ideas for Holly. But lets see how that plays out as I seem to recall Joshua not contributing much last year!

Anyway for Day 1 the Elves returned with advent calendars for all at Wick Palace. Brandon got one which you build a 1/10th scale Revell Porsche, Holly got a Barbie doll calendar, Tina got a Friends charm bracelet calendar and I got the 24 days f hot spicy sauce. 

As Joshua is growing up we really struggled to find a calendar suitable for him and I really wanted to try and getting him a fishing one, but couldn't find one anywhere. So I decided to make one out of toilet roll tubes and wrapping paper, then filled each of the tubes with a float, hook, lure or something like that.

Home made advent calendar for Joshua containing loads of fishing stuff.

The return of Candy Cane with lots of advent calendars for Holly.

Buddy brings Joshua his advent calendars.

And last but not least Peppermint brings Brandon's advent calendars.

And finally Tina showing off her Friends calendar with Holly photo bombing.
