Christmas Time Fun



Our family welcomed a new Christmas tradition this year with our own Elf on the Shelf. We all had to think of what we would like to name him and voted on whose name was the best. We all agreed that Alex came up with the best which was Jolly. As the story goes, every night he will fly to the North Pole and report the kids daily behavior directly to Santa. When he returns he will be in a different spot and the kids will make a game of being the first to find him. They are not allowed to touch him or his magic will disappear and Jolly won't be able to tell Santa if they have been naughty or nice.

Tammy found it online at www.elfontheshelf.com and I thought it would be a great tradition to start. They are at most Halmarks.
