Meet our Elf....Mr. Jingles

This year we decided to start a new Christmas tradition...."The Elf on the Shelf". It is such a cute book. The boys named our elf "Jingles". In the book it states that your elf will appear in a different place each morning until Christmas. The only rule is that you can not touch the elf. The elf watches over the children and reports back to Santa each night whether the boys have been naughty or nice. He moves to a new place each morning. On Christmas Eve the elf returns to the North Pole until next holiday season. The boys were so excited when they woke up today to find where Mr. Jingles would be watching from. Brayden even shows Mr. Jingles pictures in toy magazines of the things he would like to tell Santa he wants. Bryson wants to kiss him and tries scaling furniture to get to him, but we have to gently remind him "no touching Mr. Jingles" : ) I know we will have many fun memories with Mr. Jingles in the years to come : )
