Our Favourite Holiday Tradition is Back

December has finally arrived! That means one of our favourite family traditions has started again for this year. Our Elf on the Shelf is back for another holiday season. Meet Henry:

 

Henry has been part of our family since 2009. Elves on the Shelf come to your home to check on kids on behalf of Santa. Every night, the elves fly back to the North Pole to report to the big guy. Each morning, Henry and his elf friends can be found in some new creative position sometimes creating havoc while we sleep. For the most part, Henry is a good elf but every now and then he gets into some trouble.

My girls love Henry and get up and excitedly search for him every morning. They anticipate his arrival every year and (im)patiently countdown to December 1st. This year, we decided to surprise Henry and introduce him to our new elf, Holly, and I think Henry is in love.

Do you have an Elf on the Shelf or another tradition (old or new) that you enjoy sharing with your family in December?
