New Traditions

So have you seen "The Elf of the Shelf". It is all over specialty catalogs, christmas websites and our local Hallmark. I had seen one last year and thought the kids were a little young to get involved with the Elf. The story goes that the elf is assigned to your home via Santa and is there to "watch" you and report back to the jolly old soul in the evenings while you sleep. Then in the morning the elf is in a different spot. The fun for the kids comes then...trying to find the elf everymorning. It's a cute story and you get to name your elf and write it in the back of the book. We (Braden and Finley) named our elf "Marshmallow" and he arrived tonight.....we read the story and the fun will begin tomorrow. I am sure Sean and I will fight over where to put him and argue over who had the best "spot". I will post pictures throughout of Marshmallow and his perched spots.
