Searching for Elfie each morning has really become a treasured part of our holiday traditions. So, I thought I would share a little bit of what our Elf has been up to so far this year.
First, Elfie got his own Magic Elf Key... which I ordered from the North Pole. {wink} You can read all about it and get your own (free) key-tag printable here.

Then, he arrived with a present for us... Magic Elf Seeds. {So much fun!} You can read all about the magic here.

Since his arrival, he has been a busy elf... drawing pictures, taking naps, and flying all over our house when we aren't looking. Take a look at some of his antics.

Do you have an Elf on the Shelf? I would love to hear about the fun you are having with him/her.

Thanks for sharing Gina! Our Elf's name is Freddie & I have a photo album of pics on my fb account. Things have been hectic lately though so my ideas aren't very creative most days. lol Love your ideas & your son's drawing for Santa!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun little elf! I love all these ideas, because our elf has had to step it up to keep my 5 year old interested. Stopping by from Come Together Kids!

Hi Gina,
ReplyDeleteYou're so adorable as well as your Elfie posts I feel compelled to comment. I read your post about the Elf on a Shelf a few weeks ago and it sparked my memory of when I had these adorable little guys when I was young. So off I went to purchase an Elf for my daughter (my mom was insisting my daughter would not like). It turned out quite the opposite~ love at first site. Did I mention my daughter is 19 and at college. Hehe She had the best time naming him! Today Finnie sits atop her shelf in her dorm room keeping an eye on all the students!! You're never too old for an Elf on the Shelf!
Keep up all the good work on your blog~I love reading everyday~ the boys are adorable!! My kids are grown so I miss those days of all the fun activities especially around the holidays!
Have a great holiday~

ReplyDeleteLove this. I am pinning it as I search for Elf on a Shelf ideas. Our Elf (named Dolphin) just arrived the other night. Here is where he has been at our house so far.

Our Elf on the Shelf blog hop was a big success. Bet you'd love looking at some of the projects - http://amberinklings.blogspot.com/2011/12/blog-hop-draft.html I'm getting one for my 80 something year old mom for Christmas! You have such fun ideas here.
ReplyDeletethis is great the napping one is my favorite so clever. I'd love you to add it to my What We Wore and Made link party over at http://raegunwear.blogspot.com/search/label/WWWMW
ReplyDeleteLol!!! My mom bought our elf in the 1960s and he sat on a gold star and hung from the chandelier in the dining room. I've always loved that elf, so when I got a chance to get one from a yardsale, I did. Under a dollar. I didn't know he had returned and was so popular, but with that face ?? Of course he did!
