I took the suggestion of a fellow blogger, Megan and purchased the book The Elf on the Shelf. I read the story to the boys right when we returned home. The boys didn't even take off their coats and were on the floor waiting for me to read the story. We first had to decide what to name the elf. They suggested names like Luke, Darth Vader, Hotdog... They finally decided on the name Mr. Star. It sounds a little better than Hotdog. Mr. Star is currently sitting on the T.V. watching the boys' every move. He magically can hear everything that goes on in the house as well. Camden, especially, is being extra careful about his actions tonight. We'll see how long that lasts. Tonight Mr. Star will return to the North Pole and report to Santa. Mr. Star will be back in our house somewhere tomorrow morning. Shawn and I will hide him somewhere in the house for the boys to find. I'll report back on Mr. Star's visit this holiday season.
