Our friendly family elf, Scout, is back once again for the holiday season!!! He flew in last night and worked his little elfin fingers to the bone preparing perfectly elf-sized portions of breakfast favorites for our third annual Scout’s Snowflake Breakfast. And this year, the jolly little elf teamed up with our favorite mouse to announce a grand surprise for the littles…
…we’re headed to DiSnEy WoRlD in SIX dAyS!!!!!
Scout donned his very own set of miniature ears for the affair and dazzled the littles with his requisite elfin sized eats. All of the decor was left over from the baby’s Mickey Mouse birthday party so it was a snap to pull together and Scout didn’t spend a dime (hear that Honey??)!
Mother made the positively DARLING stockings for the littles. We’ll use these for their “Messages from Mickey” treats while staying at the mouse house.
Mickey silhouettes dressed up mini fruit cups.
I used toothpicks to stick donut holes (Trader Joes) to mini powdered donuts (Publix).
Scout always brings tiny strawberry yogurt cups topped with granola and they are always a hit. Mini apples were too cute to pass up when I spied them in Trader Joes.
Mini ego waffles were stuck together with toothpicks to make Mickey heads. I ever so briefly thought about making mini Mickey pancakes, but quickly realized just how early that would require me to wake up and nipped that idea right in the bud.
To say the littles were excited would be an incredible understatement. They came into the kitchen totally unsuspecting…
…and were still in disbelief even after we confirmed that he “read it right”!
I might as well warn y’all now that this blog is going to be busting at the seams with all things MICKY MOUSE for the next couple of weeks. :-)
SIX days, y’all!!

I actually stumbled across your blog in the spring when I was looking for Disney ideas for our summer trip… love, love that you're doing a 6 day countdown! Can't wait to see what else you do.
No fair! Our elf, Bernard, didn' t bring us a disney trip this morning!!! ;-) Lucky ducks!! That table was so exciting for me, I wanted to be sitting at it!!!
I'm a huge fan of your blog and I also follow you on Pinterest, so I was wondering if you were planning a Christmas Disney trip with some of your recent pins. Have a wonderful, magical time! We're big Disney fans and Christmas time at the happiest place on earth is truly the best! I can't wait to see your upcoming posts!
And is there any way possible your mom would make those Mickey stockings to sell? I'd love for my boys to have some!
We're on our way in the morning! Just sprung the news after suffering a devastating loss in the SEC Championship. No way I could take the anticipation for 6 whole days!! It's an "Only Child Last Hurrah" for our little man…baby sister arives February 7th! We'll let Mickey know the littles are on their way….
I have to say you certainly go all out on your place settings. I love to come and get ideas. The mickey shirts are just so cute. Have fun.
I love their faces when they saw the table all dressed up!!! We just got back from Mickey's California house…such fun at Christmastime! :-)
So fun!!! Your thoughtfulness and attention to detail is amazing!
One question…how do you manage to keep the fabric on your chairs clean with 2 little boys (especially with powdered donuts, lol)? I have 2 daughters (5 and 3) and want to do something similar but I'm terrified, lol!
I love this!! And this south Ga family is headed to Disney in a few days as well! Y'all have fun!!
What a great idea! I pinned this to remind me to do this next year with my girls. Thanks for sharing :)
Oh, what FUN it is! Lucky little guests to share at this special table! LOVE LOVE LOVE your imagination.
Happy Christmas to all,
