The boys started wondering if the elf was going to come back this year around late November. I was actually surprised they remembered, but they were pretty excited about Jingles and were hoping for his return. Eventually, he surprised them one morning by showing up in their bedroom when they woke one morning and the game was on! Jingles is the highlight of every morning as the boys search for his new location. He's a sweet little thing, and not a naughty elf like some others I've … [Read more...]

For those of you who are not familiar with the little dolls, the Elf is a small figure who comes with a book to explain his story. The "magic" begins once the elf is claimed by a family and given a name. Now the elf watches over your house during the daytime … [Read more...]

Okay a whole week gone by with the little guy and we were having some fun! One night I know I saw Jingles come in and land on the curtain rod but the next morning when the boys couldn't find him anywhere I went to help. Wouldn't you know it? he wasn't there. A quick phone call to Daddy to see if he had noticed the elf that morning was met by the sound of giggling on the other end. Apparently early that morning he had found an even trickier spot for us to find him in! Later we discovered him … [Read more...]

After seeing all the super fun posts on Facebook, Blogs and Pinterest last year about this mischeivous little Elf, I knew we had to take part! He was a hard little guy to actually get a hold of, as he was sold out at many stores but eventually Hubby managed to adopt him on one of his shopping trips and we waited for this year to take part. He arrived one week ago and the boys have been excited to come down every morning and see if they can find his new hiding spot in the house, here are a few … [Read more...]
