Christmas in July with Elf on the Shelf!

 We think our Christmas Elf deserves more then just hanging on the shelf at Christmas time, so we found some perfect ugly Christmas sweaters that are just right for the elves of the world, and sent our elves out to have a good time year round. Elves seem to tolerate wearing tacky Christmas sweaters year round just fine, so we take ours on holiday as well as to our daily adventures and take some pictures to share along the way.

It may be summer but Christmas sweaters are perfect to celebrate Christmas in July. We took our elves out to the lake where they made a few friends with some ducks and did some boating and got some wind in their hair.

Christmas in July is a great excuse for a party, and decorating has never been easier. Think nautical or patriotic colors instead of red and green.  Decorate a Christmas tree with red, white and blue decorations, like white garland (or crafty white paper chain garland if you prefer), red and blue ornaments, toy boats or pool inspired decorations, and top the tree with an American flag.  For more ideas for your party visit our Christmas in July party ideas pinterest board.
