Experiments

Last night on one of Marty's trips to the North Pole, he saw one of his friends- Carl Elf. Apparently, Carl is a technology and development elf and he is in charge of the new Christmas gifts. He sent Marty back with three new "gifts" that he wanted the kids to test out. The kids had fun making snow from a powder and marbles from little seeds- but the gifts were very messy and maybe not the best for every kid to get. Our kids had fun though and thought they were pretty cool-- who knows maybe you will see one of them in your stocking next year!

The night before more friends came to play! Timmie and Paulie finally showed up. If you recall- they were our visitors last year as well. Taylor has been having daily discussions with Marty about them and really wanted them to come play (I wish I had recorded a few of the discussion- more like Taylor trying to negotiate with Marty, LOL!). I guess Marty finally gave in and went and got them from the North Pole. That means that we now have a grand total of 5 visitors from the North Pole plus an Elf... At least they behaved tonight and decided to watch Aurthur Christmas- I just hope they continue to behave for the next few days!
