Elf on the Shelf Ideas

I love our Elf on the Shelf, Richie.  Last year was our first year with an Elf, and it was magical.  I cried the day Richie left our family and returned to the North Pole!  My 5 year old is counting down the days until Richie joins our family again - Thanksgiving evening!!   It is fun to look at Pinterest and other blogs and see what other elves have been up to!  Here is a little recap of our last year's antics and some links to other elf mischief.  I can't wait to see what Richie does this year!

The day before Richie had to go back to the North Pole (December 24th) Richie was granted extra magic which meant we were able to hold him - but only that day.  This was such a thrill to my little girl - this was the most special day ever.
