Itsy has been waiting all year for the annual Elf Christmas party. The party is only a few days away. However, Itsy woke up this morning with a runny nose. Itsy thought, “I’d better go see the great people at COVINGTON HEALTHCARE to make sure I’m well for the party this week. I’ve got big plans starting today.”
Luckily for Itsy it was only a mild cold and should be better by the end of the week.
Itsy’s big plans started when he left the clinic because today was the day for him to visit TALLASSEE AUTOMOTIVE and pick up his new car. His new car was red, just like Santa’s sleigh.
The staff at Tallassee Automotive have always been so great to work with.
Itsy wanted to share his good news with all of his elf friends, so he stopped by THE PARTY PALACE to let them know he was not going to miss the annual elf party this week. Tinsel said, “That’s wonderful news Itsy! I can’t wait! Everyone is so excited for the party, there will be Domino’s pizza, games and Christmas carols.
Itsy’s last stop for the day was to check on Santa’s sleigh at CITY COLLISION. One of the reindeer accidentally scratched the paint. Itsy had always trusted the team at City Collision and knew they would fix it before Christmas. They have the friendliest and most professional staff.
The next morning Itsy headed to town ready to shop. Downtown, fellow holiday shoppers wink and wave. “Oh, what fun it is to shop!” Exclaimed Itsy, as he visited his favorite stores. He bought toys, awesome stocking stuffers, clothes and other gifts for The Learning Tree’s toy drive.
As Itsy finished shopping, something caught his eye. Tacked to the light post, he spotted a poster of a dog named Bitsy, who was in need of a home. Itsy had always wanted a pet of his own and thought Bitsy was perfect.
Distracted by the poster, Itsy didn’t see the big puddle of water on the sidewalk. “WHOA!” He exclaimed as he landed on the sidewalk with a thud. He immediately called SERVPRO to help clean up the water so nobody else would slip and fall. Itsy’s arm didn’t feel right.
Something was not right indeed: Itsy had sprained his arm! As CPNP ADRIENNE BOLAN at the COMMUNITY MEDICAL ARTS CENTER got Itsy patched up, Itsy spotted some curious kids. They had never seen an elf before, and they wanted to know all about Santa and his workshop!
Itsy was hungry after his eventful morning. Itsy sat enjoying his favorite lunch at GROVE STATION, and he couldn’t stop thinking about what it would be like to have a dog just like Bitsy. They would go for long walks, run around the park, and play fetch! He also understood that having a dog came with responsibilities. He went home to rest and planned to visit Bitsy tomorrow.
Itsy got up early the next morning and went straight to THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF ELMORE COUNTY. Itsy adopted Bitsy on the spot. His heart was filled with glee, but he was also sad to see so many dogs and cats without homes. The shelter told Itsy that he could help the other animals by volunteering at the shelter and spreading the word about the wonderful pets that need homes. Itsy promised to help out his new friends at HSEC.
Itsy and Bitsy went to visit Itsy’s parents. They had just purchased a new home from TALLASSEE MOBILE HOME SALES. “Christmas is coming, and I can’t wait,” Itsy’s mom said as she pulled boxes of Christmas ornaments and decorations out of the closet…
As Itsy looked around, he realized how much he wanted a home of his own. After all his apartment was small and there was no yard for Bitsy to run around.
On his way to look for a new home, Itsy stops to see his friends at TALLASSEE HEALTH & REHABILITATION. He always makes time to stop and spread some Christmas cheer since they won’t be able to travel and see their families for Christmas.
When Itsy told WANDA JONES AT SOUTHERN CLASSIC REALTY what he was looking for in a home, her face lit up instantly. “Itsy,” she replied, “I think I have the perfect house for you!” When they pulled into the driveway, Itsy knew right away this was the home for Bitsy and him. He couldn’t wait to move in and start decorating for Christmas.
Now that Itsy had a new home he knew that he needed to protect it, just in case anything happened. He went straight to see LOGAN STEERS AT STATE FARM. Itsy has trusted Logan will all of his insurance needs.
“Bitsy it’s time to go home and pack up all of our stuff so we will be ready to move in to our new home.” Itsy said as they left the insurance office. Bitsy barked with excitement.
The following day Itsy had a dentist appointment. Elves eat a lot of sweets so they have to make sure to brush their teeth and schedule regular cleanings. The wonderful people at TALLASSEE FAMILY DENTISTRY take great care of Itsy!
Later that day Itsy and all of his elf friends went to surprise the wonderful children at TALLASSEE CITY SCHOOLS. The schools were helping Itsy with collecting gifts for the Learning Tree’s toy drive. Itsy was amazed with the amount of gifts
With his tiny car loaded up like Santa’s sleigh, Itsy heads for the highway… but WAIT! With a wheeze and a pop, his little car has a flat tire, and Itsy is stuck. Now what?
Lucky for Itsy, his friends at PARKER TIRE & SERVICE CENTER are happy to help with a quick tow and tire! Itsy is soon back on track ready to drop off presents for the toy drive.
Itsy and Bitsy made their way to THE LEARNING TREE with all of the toys for the toy drive. The children were very excited to show Itsy all of the toys they were donating. They even surprised Itsy and Bitsy with coffee and donuts. The kids exclaimed, “Thank you Itsy for helping to make this toy drive a success!” Itsy said, “I couldn’t do it without the help of this wonderful community.”
The next day was moving day, Itsy could barely contain his excitement. As they loaded up the moving van, he and Bitsy thought about all of the good times they were going to have in their new home…starting with the Elf Christmas party tomorrow!
That afternoon Itsy went to POAGUE TREE FARM & NURSERY to pick out the perfect Christmas tree.
Now that his house felt like home, Itsy set to work decorating for Christmas! He set up his beautiful Christmas tree and decked it out with festive lights and American flags to honor the VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS. “There’s only one more sleep until the Elf Christmas party. I can’t wait!” Itsy shouted.
The day Itsy was looking forward to had finally arrived. Itsy’s elf friends thought his new house was beautiful and couldn’t wait to start the party. “What are we going to do first?” Tinsel asked.
Itsy had one more surprise up his sleeve. He said, “Get in the car we are going to SKATE ZONE!” Itsy knew how much his friends loved skating and laser tag.
Back at home, Itsy and his guests sat around the dining room table enjoying delicious pizza from WETUMPKA DOMINO’S. Itsy thought, “This has been the best Elf Christmas party. I can’t wait to do it again next year.”
