Elfy has Arrived!

I am sure many of you have heard of the Elf on a shelf... 

well ours arrived at are house this weekend!

I am so excited to start this Christmas tradition with Addison!

The entire point of the elf on the shelf is for good behavior!

 Every night the Elf reports back to Santa to tell if you have been naughty or nice that day. 

When the elf returns he is in a new spot around the house watching you.

We have friends that have done this with there kids and they LOVE it! They even bring him out during year when they have been acting up and it works great :)

Addison already knows our elf's name... Elfy ... and looks for him every day when you say his name.

Its the little things that make Christmas so much fun!

Remember the count down starts tomorrow... 25 days until Jesus birthday! 

I am very excited to share special traditions we are starting with Addison to help her learn the true meaning of Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Luke 2:9-12
And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. (10) And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy that will be for all the people. (11) For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. (12) And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”
