Catch up of Christmas

 Merry Christmas at the crazy Bruns house...yes, it is the middle of may and i am finally getting around to posting christmas pictures!
 We had a busy December with lots of fun things to do like baking cookies.
 Our newest family member, Elfie showed up one day and he's been nothing but trouble since. He enjoyed our cookies.
 Then one morning I'm getting ready for church and I hear a ear breaking shriek...Chase had touched Elfie...which is not allowed, so Elfie got sick and could not fly back to the North Pole that night.
 Chase got ear tubes on Nov. 29th and we had to give him ear drops for 10 days. They burn as they go in and he found a really good hiding spot behind the Christmas tree where we could not go to get him out.  Smart boy!
 Elfie drank all of our syrup one day.
 We went to the "Breakfast with Santa" at the boys school and Chase, who is shy when anyone is around could not bear to even look at Santa.
 He did tell him what he wanted from this position. It was hilarious!
 One morning we caught Elfie playing Candy Land with Batman, Iron man and spider man and the next night Elfie dressed up as Green Super Elfie!
 We went to a Dirty Santa party and the kids even got to exchange gifts...we ended up with this "Christmas" mummy. Kaleb did not like it, so to lighten things up, Elfie dressed up like him one night.
 Elfie decorated the halls with snowflakes after watching the movie "Elf".
 Elf cousins.
 Hanging out with the doggies.
 Now that is a Christmas present!
 Making Snoopy Snow cones was awesome! Will have to get that out again soon!
 The kids left carrots and celery out for the reindeer...they are showing their carrot noses here.
 Last family picture of the night before christmas!
 When we ask my Dad what he wants for Christmas his reply is always "I don't know" so last year we threatened him that we would get him a leg lamp if he didn't tell us what he wanted this year...so, here it is! Jason was so excited when he found one! We haven't been to Virginia since, but I'm sure he has it displayed by the window in the living room.
Now there are some cool angry birds!
