Elf on a Shelf

This is the first year that we started the tradition of Elf On The Shelf. We knew Parker would actually comprehend that there was an elf and he was watching him!! He didn't want to name him at first but then all the sudden he named him Trophy and stuck with it. He always looked to see if Trophy was in the same spot as he was the day before then always said "Trophy fly home to the north pole". We would always remind him that he came back so then he would start looking for him! It was fun to play tricks on him daily. Here is a picture of most every spot he landed before flying back to the north pole Christmas Eve...

Parker was giving Trophy his milk cup the night before when sitting on the little house so we thought him drinking his own glass of milk would be pretty funny!

Parker broke my OU santa by throwing it. To show him that Trophy was watching we had Trophy hold the broken head. He thought it was hilarious.

Making a snow angel!!

The final night he was in the fridge with the milk jug...we told him he missed the North Pole!! I failed to get a picture of it and now he is put away for next year.

Sometimes when Parker would act out, he would tell us he didn't want Trophy to fly back to the North Pole because he knew Trophy reported back to Santa!!
