Friends of the Elf

Yesterday I wrote on Facebook that the Elf, although a bit creepy to me, worked wonders for keeping Andrew in bed.  Someone recommended using the Easter Bunny as a bed time incentive, and I said that if I thought about it long enough, I bet I could come up with a character for each holiday in the year.  Well, I haven't come up with a character for every holiday yet, but I did come up with a few tonight.  I had to use toys that we already own because, frankly, Christmas has broken the bank.  This is what I have so far: 

President's Day Penguin.  His powers were witnessed tonight in the Williams household.  Andrew stared him down, but didn't get out of bed! 

Valentine's Day Vagrant.  He even sings, "Oh baby you...got what I need!"

St. Patrick's Day serpent (Did Saint Patrick drive the snakes out of Ireland?)  We don't have a toy leprechaun.

Easter Bunny Trinity

Memorial Day Milk Shark (I don't know what kind of shark this is, but I needed something starting with an M)

Flag Day Feline (Flag to be added later)

Fourth of July Frog (again, patriotic outfit to be added at a later date)

 Thanksgiving Tyrannosaurus Twins



 Any ideas for the remaining holidays will be greatly accepted!
