Does your elf have a name?
His name is Stripes and he has a sister named Crystal. He helps decorate trees at the North Pole, thus the tree on his pocket. His favorite treats are egg nog, peppermint sticks and sugar cookies and he loves to ski and wrap presents on his days off!;)
So cute Fran! I had to share it on facebook. Love it.
Thank you!
You've come through again for me! Elf names and Elf Yourself! These will add some fun to our Christmastime studies.
I'm so happy to hear that, Betty Jo! Happy to help!:)
