We have started a new tradition here at our home...Elf on the Shelf & let me tell you it is a keeper!!! An Elf comes to your house & you have to give him a name right away (ours is Pickle) & then he proceeds to watch over you all day & flies back to the North Pole at night to tell Santa how you did for that day. When he returns, he is always in a new spot & the kids have to look for the new place each day!!! Lilee & Samuel are in LOVE with Pickle the Elf!! To hear their laughter at the different spots each day has been worth it! The tricky part is making sure he remembers to change spots each day...if you know what I mean!!!
Here he is the first day he came to our house...do you see him?? Lilee did right away & her first question...."Mom, is that thing real?" It was priceless!!
Here is a closeup of Pickle
Here they are with the book Pickle brought to read to them about the rules & what he does!!
He will go away after Christmas only to return the following year! It has been so fun!
