Elf on the Shelf and Countdown to Christmas

William has officially begun the Countdown to Christmas. The first thing he opened was a football. He was so excited when Pamma and Santa's special packages arrived ;)

The second thing he opened was The Elf on the Shelf package, which included a book and an Elf.


Here is Daddy and William reading The Elf on The Shelf book. The book depicts the story of the Elf...he comes to hang at our house each year and reports to Santa each night whether William was a good or bad boy. William then wakes up and finds him each morning. If he was a good boy, the Elf has a present for William the next day. William was very attentive to the book and named the elf "Jumba."


William found Jumba on a shelf this morning and was very excited to see he had brought a special gift. As you may notice, he also has his football, which he named his "giant" football.

William and Rodney the Reindeer. It came with a book telling the story of Rodney, who helped Santa find his hat one Christmas. He loves this book, which was given to him by his auntie Jess. We read it every night!
