See ya next year, Cookieo

See you all later next year, little kiddos! I'm off to have a well deserved vacation. -your friendly little elf pal, Cookieo

"It's a pony parade."

Day 17 - where is Cookieo

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree....

Day 16 - where is Cookieo

Think they will notice me in here... It like "where's Waldo?" but instead "where's Cookieo?"

Day 15 - where is Cookieo

Trying to be a helper elf and putting the laundry away. Plus, it is nice and cozy in here away.

Day 14 - where is Cookieo

Don't mind me, just taking a bath...

Day 13 - where is Cookieo

Wait, keep that door open, I need to get out of this room and report back to Santa!

Day 12 - where is Cookieo

Piggyback ride!

Day 11 - where is Cookieo

Whew, this is becoming more of an extended stay rather than a quick trip! Need to get some laundry done as I don't have anymore clean clothes with me!

Day 10 - where is Cookieo

Now this tree is just my size. Alicia and Ben have some cute little ornaments on this tree. Say... I'm cute and little too ;-)

Day 9 - where is Cookieo

Just catching up with some calls to the big man.
Wait.. hear that...
"If there's somethin' strange in your neighborhood; Who ya gonna call; If it's somethin' weird an it won't look good; Who ya gonna call..."

Day 8 - where is Cookieo

"Sing us a song, you're the piano man;
Sing us a song tonight;
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody;
And you've got us all feelin' all right..."

Day 7 - where is Cookieo

Alicia spotted Cookieo saying "that's not safe!" lol.

Day 6 - where is Cookieo

Such a nice family picture Alicia made. Mommy, daddy, Alicia, Ben and Tanner. However I'm not shown in it yet... Maybe I'll have to work my magic and draw my little ole elf self in there.

Oops late arrival of Day 5 - where is Cookieo

Love the picture, reminds me of warmer weather when I get to take my vacation! Whew.. This elf business is hard work!

Day 4 - where in the house is Cookieo

The cat and the little tike gets to climb up the tree, so why can't I?

Day 3 - where in the house is Cookieo

Excuse me, but may I have a little bit of privacy, please? Note to s"elf" - this bathroom has no doors and is a bit cramped, must find new bathroom next time.

Day 2 - where in the house is cookieo

It doesn't look Wintery out there yet... It's a little cold, but the north pole has way more snow than this place.

Day 1 of Cookieo's whereabouts

Sitting and watching a little tv...

Happy st nicks day!

There's an elf on the loose in our house! Day 1 of the "elf on a shelf" - Alicia named him Cookieo. Not sure how she came up with it, but I guess it's a combo of a cookie and Oreo? :-)
Follow his whereabouts on our random photos site here www.arandomphoto.blogspot.com

"I'm free!!" said Cookieo.

Interesting. I guess it's like a wine bottle sweater, thoughts?

Happy Halloween

Caught in the act..

Oh snap! He found my secret chip stash already!! Too smart for his own good. I think we'll need some locks...

Old school cookies

Remember these? Just got these at Mcd's.. wish they had the chocolate chip ones too. They were my favorite growing up.
