This year our family got our very own Elf! As the story goes, once the boy or girl elf arrives at your house, you must give him a name in order for him to get his magic. Well I left it up to the kids to name him and they went the original route and our Elf's name is Elfie!
For those of you who do not know the story behind the Elf on the Shelf, every night he flies back to the North Pole to report back to Santa on if the kids were good or bad that day. When he comes back to your house, he lands in a different spot. The game for the kids is to wake up and see who can spot Elfie first. The kids loved this part and Aaron and I loved the part that the kids understood that they had to be good because Elfie would tell Santa if they were naughty. Sometimes I wish Elfie would stay at our house year-round!
Below are the pictures I captured of Elfie this year. Some of them were pretty creative so I am sure next year it will be even better.
Enjoy!
