- We got to the car and it was locked and Missy had no keys.
- Yeah, I don't know what happened.
- Like, did someone take the keys?
(upbeat music)
- I can't find Fred again, guys.
- [Missy] Oh no, we'll find him, huh.
- And guess what, guys, we're gonna make hot cocoa
and eat breakfast.
- [Missy] Yeah!
That's right, good morning!
And if you haven't checked down below to see if you're
subscribed make sure you guys are subscribed to our channel.
We are just waking up this morning.
We've been looking for Fred.
The house is freezing!
We need some breakfast, some hot cocoa.
We're also looking for Fred.
Do you guys see Fred anywhere?
Let us know down in the comments if you see Fred before us.
Boys had their breakfast and it is time for me to get
ready today.
We have kind of a busy day.
So, I'm really hoping that we can find Fred soon.
Once they're done eating they can kind of look around.
They said they looked a little bit but not sure
if they looked everywhere.
He might just be a little more hidden today.
Good morning, Karma.
And just like that my hair and make-up is done.
Looking good!
We're actually doing some family photos today so I
wanted to get ready.
Although, I am not dressed yet.
I can't wear these to our family photos, right Ollie?
- Yeah.
(laughing)
- Finn, what are you doing you crazy boy?
I think Finn's a little grumpy probably because we
haven't found Fred yet.
Lets go look around, boys.
All right, I'm gonna look in the laundry room.
Woo.
My laundry room is kind of a mess.
Oh my goodness.
Don't look.
Nevermind, just don't look, don't look at that.
You guys, if you love looking for Fred every morning
make sure you give this video a big thumbs up.
We are absolutely loving Fred and Elf on the Shelf.
It's like our favorite thing every year.
Okay, guys, I'm gonna be honest.
My house is a disaster right now.
After family photos I'm going to have to clean this room up.
Wait until you see it.
Look at this mess, boys!
What is going on in here?
Did you just find twenty dollars?
(laughing)
That's a lot of money.
- I wanna buy a toy.
- I don't know if that's yours, dude, I feel like
that's Daddy's or something.
Do you guys ever find money just laying around the house
or sometimes in your clothes after you get
them out of the dryer?
That happens to me all the time.
Where else can we look for Fred?
(baby talk)
Are you looking inside the Christmas tree?
He's kind of big.
It's like little elf...
- [Ollie] Oh, look there he is right there.
- [Missy] Where?
- Right there.
- Right there?
- Yeah.
- That's not him.
(laughing)
Is there any other rooms you haven't looked in?
- I'm going to check in daddy's office.
- [Missy] Okay.
- Look.
- What?
What in the world?
- The Grinch is right there.
- Why would the Grinch be there?
That's so weird.
- I don't know.
(baby talk)
- What?
(baby talk)
- [Ollie] What!? What!?
- [Missy] Wait, what?
Ah! Oh my goodness.
What is he doing? Wow.
- He must've got hypnotized.
- Oh no, or maybe what happened is...
Maybe Grinch is trying to scare him.
He must be scared!
- Oh no.
- [Missy] Oh no, that's so sad.
- That's mean of the Grinch.
- [Missy] That is mean.
Why is he doing that?
Wait, lets open this up and see.
Oh, he stuck himself to this glass and is scaring him!
- [Finn] Yeah.
- [Missy] I think Fred is scared of the Grinch.
Honestly, it makes sense why he'd be scared of the Grinch,
though, because I think it was just a few years back the
Grinch actually came into our house and tortured Fred.
If you haven't seen that video click the iCard
because it's actually pretty adorable.
(baby talk)
- The Grinch tied Fred on a train.
- It was a little freaky, for sure, um.
- The good thing he got saved.
- Yes, but he got saved and he's okay.
I think these magical creatures can definitely
work through a lot of those issues with magic.
But, I think he's definitely afraid of Grinch.
That's so sad!
Well, I'm glad we found him.
Maybe in a bit we should take the Grinch off.
(baby talk)
You wanna say no no to the Grinch?
- Yeah.
- All right, go tell no no to the Grinch.
Say no no Grinch don't scare our Fred.
Grinch? That is a no no we do not scare our
friend Fred, huh.
- Yeah.
(enchanted music)
So I had a theory.
What if Fred locked himself in here and covered his
eyes and tried to scare him away with this kind of
magic, like Harry Potter magic, but he still decided
to maybe stick himself on there to make Fred so scared.
What do you think?
- That's not nice to scare his self.
- [Missy] I know, like.
Grinch why would you scare Fred?
He's a good little Elf on the Shelf, huh.
- Yeah.
The Grinch wants to steal Christmas.
- Yeah, we cannot let the Grinch steal Christmas, right?
- Yeah.
Ollie, what did you just steal from daddy's little
Harry Potter collection?
- My Slytherin wand.
- [Missy] Whoa! Oh my gosh, is this the Slytherin wand that
daddy got you for your birthday and you turned Draco
into a real lizard?
- Yes.
- [Missy] That was crazy!
- I want to do that again.
- [Missy] Oh no, no more animals in the house, Oliver!
If you guys didn't see Ollie turn his lizard into
a real bearded dragon.
It was the most magical moment I've ever seen.
The whole family was just like in tears.
Like, it was amazing.
So, I'll also leave that up in the iCard so you
can watch that.
But anyways, I've got a big black bag and the kids
no what that means.
It's time to get rid of some old toys.
I'm actually gonna donate a bunch of stuff.
It's just getting a little too insane in here.
Just insane with like pillows, blankets, things everywhere.
It's time to cut down on a lot of this stuff.
Lets do this.
I think a sleeping dog means a clean room.
Check it out!
I got rid of a bunch of stuff that was in there.
Now, it's all in there. (laughing)
(children yelling)
The boys are playing and I'm actually
picking out some clothes.
Just like I said we're doing family photos today so
I'm trying to find...
I'm not looking for anything too Christmas-y more like
neutral colors.
I really like this shirt for Ollie.
It kind of, like, pops and it's kind of cool.
I think this is kind of a neutral tone for Finn.
I'm trying to decide if I should go with black
pants for Ollie, though, or blue pants.
I feel like black looks classier but it might be too
dark for the colors we're going.
I really have not decided which one I want him to do.
All right, I think we've picked the boys outfits and
you guys look so cute!
I went ahead and went with the black because after I
picked my outfit I ended up having a little black
in mine, too.
So I think that it all blends pretty cute.
We are basically ready.
Brian is just finishing up getting ready.
So I'm gonna load up in the car and I gotta get
the dogs all ready.
I'm gonna bring their little brushes so that their
hair looks nice and cute.
Lets get in the car, okay?
- All right, you guys.
We got the whole fam dam in the car.
We got Karma and Luna in the back.
Hi, Karma and Luna!
You guys haven't been on a drive with us in a long time,
have they?
- No.
- Luna has not, this is her first time, right?
- I think, well I don't know, we've taken her a couple
places but we don't get her out very often.
I think Karma and Luna are a lot like Missy and I.
Home-bodies.
(laughing)
So, they basically have just been running around
the property and the house for, like, the last year.
They never really wanna go with us anywhere when
we go on hikes or anything.
- Yeah, when we didn't have kids Karma would
always just try and jump in the car.
And he gets excited when we invite him into the car.
- Yeah.
- He doesn't ask anymore.
He's like I'm good.
(laughing)
- And I also forgot my sunglasses which is a big no no
in California but we are doing a photo shoot so I figured
maybe my eyes will adjust.
- Yeah, they probably...
- And I won't look like this in all the photos.
- We're walking down to the park now.
You guys might actually recognize this park.
We've been here a lot.
- Underground tunnel here we come!
- Underground tunnel.
Yeah, we didn't bring any help with us, either.
Usually like my mom and dad come.
It's gonna be fun. It's gonna be interesting.
We'll see how it goes.
So, we just got done with pictures.
Finn, you did so good, huh!
- [Brian] He was so cute.
(laughing)
- Yes, and Brooke of course did our photos!
- Woo-hoo!
- If you guys want to see a really cute sneak peek
make sure you guys follow her on Instagram.
I'll leave it down in the description so you
guys can check it out.
But yeah, she does like all our photos and
I'm telling you this was just a quick shoot and
we got so many cool stuff.
- Like, a million.
(laughing)
Look how cute!
- Look at him!
This is like our favorite spot.
- [Brian] Boys just love exploring here.
- Yeah, we've done so many videos here.
So, I did the who knows me best or like the
husband challenge or something here.
- Really? Aw.
- I've done my Mothers Day videos here.
I've done tons of pictures here.
- I know I feel like I remember seeing all the
videos of you guys here.
- Yeah, yeah.
- That's so cool.
- I've even done a bump day with Ollie here at the park
up there.
- Aw, really? That makes it even more special.
- Yes.
I know, this is like our favorite...
- You did so good.
- Yes, and she's got like this awesome new camera.
- It's so exciting!
- That takes like the coolest pictures.
- Yes, it's a Fuji GFX and it's mirror less.
- The camera doesn't take good pictures.
Brooke takes good photos.
- I mean, the camera helps a little.
- Yes.
- [Brian] But yes, I am drooling over them.
- She gets like the best pictures, so.
- Thank you.
- Yes, this is like our favorite park.
This is Karma's favorite park.
- She just found a ball.
- Yeah, he finds all the balls and sticks.
- [Brooke] He climbed the...
- [Missy] Yeah, he climbs trees here.
It's always fun.
(playful music)
All right, so I am off on a little trail ride with
Nacha and I've got Maria and Jenna up there.
It's just so nice.
We haven't been out on a trail ride in forever.
These horses were filthy.
They were covered in mud but I think we got
them pretty clean.
Such a nice day, it' so nice just to be able to come out
and feel the crisp, cool air and ride.
I miss it.
I need to be doing it more.
(lighthearted music)
I just got back from riding my horse which was so awesome.
But we are all headed out to go see a movie.
Me and Brian are actually going to go see Bohemian Rhapsody
and the boys are going to go see Ralph Breaks the Internet
with Mimi and Papa.
So, my dad just sent me this photo.
It's the cutest thing ever.
He's like show Ollie this picture, tell him I'm
ready for the movies.
I show him like wow look Papa has popcorn he's so excited.
- And the Coyote Peterson book of King of Sting.
- He saw the King of Sting book in the background
which I didn't even know anything about.
(baby talk)
He got so excited check out his reaction.
Ollie, what did you just see?
- When I saw Papa's photo I saw the new book of King of
Sting of Coyote Peterson, yay!
- I really thought he was just excited about the popcorn.
He went and he started jumping up and down.
(laughing)
- Yes! Oh yeah, oh yeah.
(laughing)
(baby talk)
- But anyways, isn't that the cutest reaction.
I really didn't see the King of Sting book at all in
the background I just thought they were like
tell Ollie we're excited for the movie with him.
- So, Missy and I are going to be seeing the new,
it's actually not new it's been out for awhile,
Bohemian Rhapsody.
Is today the last day?
- I thought the last day was last week.
- Yeah.
- But apparently it's still playing and I'm so excited.
- I'm excited, too, because it's all about the
music industry and the bands.
- Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy!
- Hang on, bud.
- We're really excited to hear it and watch it.
These guys are gonna go see Ralph Breaks The Internet, huh.
- Yeah.
- [Missy] Are you excited?
- Yeah.
Have you seen Ralph Wrecks the Internet, yet?
- Yeah, let us know in the comments, you guys.
Have you seen Ralph Wrecks the Internet yet
and what did you think?
- Comment down below what kind of Wreck it Ralph
do you like.
Do you like the old one or the new one?
- Oh, so you want to know if they like the new
one or the old movie.
All right, let us know down in the comments, you guys.
Which one did you like most and why?
And I'll be reading some of them to Ollie because
he loves hearing you guys comments.
Well, that turned out to be and eventful night.
- Yeah.
- Oh, hey guys.
Yeah, we just got out of the movies and it ended up
being a very eventful night.
You guys were locked inside this car.
- EH.
- Because we got to the car and it was locked and
Missy had no keys.
- Yeah, I don't know what happened.
- Like, did someone take the keys?
(laughing)
- No, no just me locking them in the car.
(laughing)
- It happens to the best of us. It's okay.
- Manually locking the car.
- And it was honestly me.
I will take all the blame because as we were getting
out of the car Missy was like I need you to lock it
and I was like that's weird you've never asked me to do
that but okay.
She has the keys, she drove.
It's okay.
- Yeah.
- It's not your fault.
It's no ones fault. We got the key.
- It's definitely my fault, but it's fine.
(laughing)
- And we are headed home, but, it was actually
really convenient because our car was parked in a
parking lot that had a restaurant in it.
So, we had dinner, right boys?
- Yes.
- Had a good dinner.
- They really liked the movie, too, right?
- Yes.
(baby talk)
- Oh yeah, I'll get you out.
(laughing)
All right, lets get you out of this car.
Come on, lets go.
(laughing)
Did you just toot?
- Yeah.
(laughing)
- Did you hear that?
There was a little toot in there for sure.
All right, come on mister.
Lets get you out of the car.
(baby talks)
You had pizza tonight?
- Yeah!
- [Together] Yes!
- He had pizza for dinner.
And I have been hiding snacks in the car all day today.
Check this out you guys.
These are called mini stroop waffles and they're like
little waffle cookies filled with caramel and they
are seriously so good and they're like really small.
They're only like 30 calories or something.
I've had them in my pockets all day and Finn has
basically been my best friend because he also loves them.
So, he's been like how many cookies can I
get out of dad today?
We're home!
Hi puppy.
We got some Christmas treats.
What're we got for them?
What're we got for the puppies?
- I've got santa snacks.
- Nice.
- Crunch dog biscuits with oatmeal and cinnamon.
- [Brian] All right you guys can have a little snack.
Do they smell good?
- Mm. They do smell pretty good.
Ollie, you wanna take it?
- [Brian] You wanna try it?
- No!
- [Missy] Lick it, lick it.
(laughing)
- [Brian] All right, Finn's got his Scooby snack, too, huh.
(baby talk)
Okay!
Oh, that's what the cookies looks like.
And look at all the dogs.
They're like hey.
What's up?
- Don't forget to do my Legos in your office, remember?
- [Brian] Yeah, we found some Legos.
We're gonna put those together.
- Yeah.
(baby talk)
A guy had some red Legos, a red thing on his back...
- [Brian] Uh huh.
- and he had change on his hands and he lays like this.
(laughing)
- This is an ongoing thing when we're filming.
- [Finn] Hey mommy, hey mommy!
(laughing)
Ollie has these really long drawn out statements.
I love it. He just keeps talking.
- It's just a little red thing.
- I know, that's amazing!
- [Finn] Mommy, mommy.
- You're amazing, dude.
I love it he just like talks and he doesn't know what
he's gonna say so he just keeps talking.
- Yeah.
- [Finn] Mommy!
- It's the cutest thing ever.
(bouncy music)
- All right, we are home now and I have to say something.
We have been vlogging every single day for about
a week now, I feel like.
So I really wanna know from you guys,
are we doing vlog-mas and if we are is that
what you guys wanna see?
We've been kind of talking about doing vlog-mas.
We've never done it in the past because we've
always daily vlogged.
It didn't feel anything different because it was just like
oh, now we're just vlogging and it's December.
But, we don't do normally daily vlogs and we've
been doing a lot of daily vlog type of stuff.
So, I wanna know if you guys have been enjoying our
content.
If you guys wanna keep seeing us vlog every single day
during the month of December or Christmas.
I don't even know if vlog-mas...
Is vlog-mas just until December?
But anyways, let us know down in the comments
if you're loving this.
If you want us to keep doing vlog-mas.
Oh, actually lets do and an iCard.
Let us know up in the iCard if you want us to keep
doing vlog-mas or if you like kind of the other stuff we do.
Anyways, I think we're gonna go ahead and end the video.
It is very late because we watched a late movie and
then we got locked out of the car for some reason.
Not my fault, okay?
But anyways, I hope you guys did enjoy this video.
If you did, you might enjoy some of these other fun
videos on this screen.
We've been having so much fun with
Elf on the Shelf once again.
Fred has just been doing some cool stuff and I can't
wait to see what else he has up his sleeves this month.
We will see you guys on our next one.
Ollie, what do you say?
- Bye!
