Elf on a Shelf comes to Wareham!

So, I'll let you down right now ~ there's no actual elf in this post.
Our neighbors, The Old Company Store hosted an Elf on a Shelf day.... with  big horses taking people for wagon rides, kettle corn, music the whole nine yards.... as well as children clad as elves leaping about on the side of the road, and perching in trees even....
They invited the Hubby and Cricket to go buzzing about, join the fun, and entertain the good people.

  1. Fun for all ! Love the little wreath on the back of Crickets cart and he looks so cute as always showing the big horses how to do it right .
    IN that fourth picture I can see the Clydesdale with a little bit of an upright look towards Crickets as he whispers to his buddy " That little horse is such a show off, just let me step on him once !" giggle

    1. I think they thought he was a little horse shaped gnat ~ buzzing about! :)))))
      All the big horses seemed to be scared of the little horses??

  2. Ha, the hubby must enjoy these parades a lot. A parade is no parade without 'our' Cricket and his human.;-)

  8. What a sweet face on the Clydesdale in the last picture ( although they all have lovely faces).
    Are you SURE you can't fit a real baby one under the Christmas tree for the hubs ... you know he has that BIG horse wish ;)

      Plus, after Christmas morning it would have to go stay in YOUR yard... we're out of room! ..
