Day #2909 (Sat., Dec. 23, 2017) – Present For An Elf?

I spent most of the day shopping today. Getting ready for Christmas.

I had to go to the Dollar Store to get some cat toys for Batman and Robin (Katie would be upset if we didn’t have something for them under the tree). While I was there my wife texted me that I needed to get a present for the “Elf On The Shelf”. What do you get an elf? I ended up getting him a wooden chair as there were little accessories for doll houses. This will give him something to sit on when he is not on the shelf.

This evening we took the kids to see the Christmas lights in Fearrington Village, Southern Village, and Carborro. We ate at the McDonald’s near Fearrington Village beforehand. We got the chance to get a couple more train cars for the train set we are building via two happy meals. The kids played at a little playground in Carrboro just before we headed home (see photo to the right).
