14 Elf on the Shelf Ideas {Need some?}

Twas the week before Christmas and all throughout the homestead..
Mom and dad were haunted by thoughts of "what the heck are we gonna do with this elf tonight?!?! racing around in their head.

Meet Buddy.

He came to live with us this year and he has been so much fun.

All day he watches our brood of three to see if their behavior has been bad or good...

Then while they are sleeping he reports back to the North Pole to fill Santa in on the deets.

No worries though...he is always back in time to greet them good morning.

Funny thing about Buddy...he seems to like a little mischief himself.



First night here and he managed to eat his way through a whole bag of my white chocolate truffles.

I seriously considered kicking Buddy to the curb for this.

But then I realized he had bigger eating issues than I do so I may want to keep him around to help me feel better about myself.



Buddy "rolled" our mini Christmas tree.



"We elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns, and syrup."



"Baby it's cooooold outsiiiiide."



Buddy was really missing the snow back home.



Who knew elves were so tech savvy?



Buddy "elf'd" the kids.



Wonder what he charges for a sitting fee?



Maggie went to a sleepover one night this week.

This is how we found Buddy the next morning.



Heartbroken.



Elf Art.



"Good job recovering my hat guys. I'll take it from here." ~Sheriff Woody



All I can say is that Rudolph isn't the only one that woke up with a red nose that day.



Red and Green Milk.



Buddy the Geography teacher.



Under the weather.



Buddy just couldn't resist antagonizing Woody with his hat.

Looks like it came down to a snowball fight.






"My every mortal breath, is Grace and nothing less"
