Welcome to Mellie's mind...

Enjoy the ride!

The Elf on the Shelf......


Today the kids awoke to our Elf on our formal dinning room table playing a game of scrabble with some friends in the house.  I wanted to make the game even more special by spelling out a message to the kids about them being good.  In addition each player had the names of all the kids in our family spelled out as future moves for the game.  Of course since I have 5 kids with long names our Elf had the names of the three little ones and only their nicknames.  The two smallest kids really enjoyed seeing the game and took a fourth tile holder and spelled out a message to our Elf.... "Your nice"  Proper nouns don't count when you are 6 years old!

My 9 year old daughter, GG, is on to me but she plays along for the sake of her little brother and sister!

Happy Holidays!!!!
