Last from Christmas 2013

Athya just couldn't stay out of Christopher's stocking

And then he and his friends said goodbye to Christmas 2013

Always something to do during the holidays

Sharing a Coke with a friend

Time to add sprinkles to the cookies

Caught Athya smooching with his friend Lola

Then they headed to the kitchen to make a gingerbread carousel

More from 2013

One of Athya's favorite things about Christmas is the candy cane chocolate!

Wrapped in red

Think Christopher will notice Athya in his stocking?



Elf buddies

Helping and playing around

Athya helped bag spiced pecans to give away.

And then he went outside to horse around with Kevin's elf.

I was surprised to see paper chains on my tree one morning.

And of course Athya had to take a selfie.

The fun continues

Athya helped string popcorn for the birds.



And then he went outside to build a snowman.



He helped wrap presents.



Before going back outside to make snow angels.

Adventures from 2013

Athya took a sneak in the presents.

Then participated in a sing-along with Frosty.

Before he overloaded on chocolate and peppermint!

He ended the evening by reading The Night Before Christmas to Mr. and Mrs. Bear.

Introducing Athya the Elf

I've been taking pictures of Athya the Elf for three years now and decided it was time to create his own blog. Christmas was last week so for now, I'll post pictures from 2013 - 2015 and then pick up with seasonal postings in November 2016. Hope you enjoy!

Athya was happy to find Santa in the tree when he arrived in 2013.

He quickly made new friends.

And he loves to listen to Christmas music!

But he's not too sure about this light thing.
