Elf on the Shelf

We have incorporated yet another new Christmas tradition. Last night, we met The Elf on the Shelf when he arrived on assignment, sent directly from Santa Claus to look over our household throughout the holiday season and to make sure Reese is behaving accordingly and deserving of her Christmas gifts. Reese is so excited to look for her friend every morning throughout the season, and she has been extra careful to be on her best behavior ever since "Buddy" arrived!
