Thursday, December 18, was Answer the Telephone Like Buddy the Elf Day.
I was all ready to when Jeremy called for family prayer that morning. However, his phone got bumped to "Do Not Disturb" so my texts never got to him saying we were ready. I eventually had to call him and he didn't think to answer the phone that way. Oh well.
The only other phone call I got that day was from the elementary school and I intentionally did NOT answer like Buddy the Elf because I knew they weren't calling for something fun. Sigh.
The kids and I did watch the movie, "Elf" (I stayed awake for the whole thing- Gasp). I even made spaghetti and got out the rest of the ingredients needed for a Buddy the Elf breakfast for dinner. Nobody was in the mood for all that sugary stuff, though. I don't blame them. What did sound good was me taking leftover homemade teriyaki sauce, cutting up veggies, adding some rotisserie chicken, and cooking them up together to have some nice teriyaki chicken to go with the spaghetti.
I was prepared, though, and throughout the next day, people did have some Buddy the Elf breakfast from time to time.
Jr. created a beautiful masterpiece. It sure "looked" pretty.
Speaking of masterpieces, Jr. Jr. brought home a beautiful ornament he made at school... and cookies.
