This year we started a new family tradition and introduced Elf on the Shelf to Ethan which was delivered to Babe at work by we think Santa, we read the little book and it is beyond cute. Basically if you haven't heard of him he's a magical elf that Ethan can not touch and he leaves every night to report to Santa if Ethan has been good or bad for that particular day and when he comes back he is in a new place every day. Ethan had to name him and choose the name, Spike, we registered him online and Santa sent Ethan a letter to tell him Thank you for inviting Spike into our family, so so cute! The book is super cute and I cant wait to continue this tradition each Christmas with Ethan and when he outgrows it with McKenzie. :) I just love the spirit of magic hehe. I'm going to keep this post going until I have all the days from Dec 5- Dec 24th which is when he reports back to Santa and doesn't return until the holidays next year.

Spike has now left for the year and will return next year when we start to get out the holiday decorations. When we came home on Christmas day Ethan was sad to see that Spike was no longer here and had me read his book, then the next morning he even went out and looked for him. He now knows that Spike will be back next Christmas :)
