Elf on a Shelf

Below is a neat little idea/tradition to create for you and your family. I had seen this last year, but I just ordered this today. I had been meaning to do this earlier so that I could do this with Karenza this Holiday season. But, I figure it's never to late to add a new tradition to the family! Once the elf comes you have to name him. I can't wait to see what she will name him. It should be interesting! The description they use on the website is: "During the holiday season, the elf watches children by day and reports to Santa each night. When children awake, the elf has returned from the North Pole and can be found hiding in a different location."

Only one week until Christmas!! I can't wait. I still have to get the package in the mail to Randy's parents, but then I will be done Christmas shopping (hopefully!!). I sent the package to Alaska yesterday for his Sister's families, but they won't get it until the day after Christmas so that's okay. Hope you all are able to spend time with your loved ones over this holiday season.
