This is our air purifier. We named it R2-D2 and when we have something extra good for dinner R2 gets mad. R2 gets mad because things like beef and bacon give off so much smoke that it gets the air purifier working on overdrive. R2 will go from yellow to orange to screaming red when we do grill indoors or make bacon in the oven. All that good smoke gets R2 angry.
Our elf on the shelf has returned once again. We’re not sure if this is the last year that he’ll be flying around the house or not. Andy does not seem that excited to see Fitzy or find Fitzy every day like in years past. I am thinking that Andy may be humoring us this year. We’ll we’ve had a good run of creating magical memories for the kids over the years with this elf. Many people hate the elf for various reasons. He’s a tattletale and whatnot. But Fitzy has always been well received by the kids except for the one time that he ended up in the bathroom. Eva was having none of it when that occurred. We’ll see at the end of the Christmas season if this will be Fitzy’s last hurrah.
