Elf On The Shelf!

Hillary is a mom of two very energetic and inquisitive boys – who keep her on her toes. When not working on Great Lakes Bay Moms or spending time with the hubs and two boys she enjoys rowing on the bay city rowing team, baking, girls nights, shopping and traveling!

Are you one of the many lucky families to have a little mischief maker join your house, every year around Christmas?!?! We are! Zippy, the Elf joined our family two years ago. While I love having Zippy join our family for the month of December, I do not enjoy trying to remember what he has done and what he hasn’t done! It gets to be a bit confusing at times! The thing that makes me the most frustrated is, my boys can ALWAYS remember what he has done! If i’m going to keep this magic alive, I had to get more organized and prepared for Zippy! KEEP. A. CALENDAR… (Download one HERE)  Everyday I write down what Zippy did and then I keep it for next year.

Over the last few weeks I’ve been scouring pinterest looking for some fun and eventful yet easy shenanigans for Zippy to get into. Please let me know what you’re little visitor is doing at your house! Post your pictures HERE or email me at: [email protected]. Happy Holidays!
