OOPS! For Eloise the Elf!



















Poor, poor little Eloise. She was trying to do a good....make that great thing. She was entertaining Katie for her Mama and had quite the accident. Katie's room sits upstairs on the front of the house. She has vaulted ceilings with floor to ceiling palladian windows that overlook the front. Very cool. It's one of my favorite rooms! Anyway, the daddy put a 7ft. tree in front of the window, so that at night when lit, it's absolutely gorgeous from the street. (normally this tree is downstairs in the Kitchen/dining area). Well, Eloise found this loud, obnoxious, ornament that sings "Rockin around the Christmas Tree" and while Mama was making dinner.....decided to "Rock" with Katie around the tree that wasn't meant to be "rocked" around. The entire tree fell (not on little girls thankfully...it's big!!) but all ornaments, and items went flying. Eloise went berzerkamoid!!! After much cuddling and hugging and assuring Eloise that it was indeed an accident, and all was well (with the exception of some beheaded nutcrackers)....Eloise's emotions went back intact:).... Mommy was somewhat worried because I have some very precious adoption ornaments...many of them fragile that were on there, as well as ornaments from China. None of those were hurt or harmed. YEA!!!! Tree was put back up....and now stands a little crooked...but hey....no problem. We're back ROCKIN and looking forward to some very busy days ahead!!

P.S. The pics loaded out of order. The top is after tree rescue and Eloise is back to normal :) Check out the Disney princess doll Katie had disrobed and adamantly declared had to be in the picture! The second pic is the fallen tree. No one has touched the tree since :)
