Introducing CHEERY!

Meet Cheery

 SHE is our elf!  Our "Elf on the Shelf".  In case you haven't heard, Santa packages up elves, and throws in a book and sends them all over to help watch and make sure you are being good.

Every night, when you are sleeping, the elf flies to Santa to give him their report. And then comes back and finds a new spot to "hide".  And each morning, you get the fun of finding the elf and seeing what they have been up to while you are sleeping.

Another fun thing is that you get to name your elf yourself.  Brooklyn came up with the name Cheery, and claimed she was a girl!  Sounded good to the rest of us. 

Here are a few places we have found Cheery so far.

It's a lot of fun having a REAL ELF!  Brooklyn was SUPER excited when she showed up on our doorstepadn we read the book lots, and have watched the movie over and over!  What a fun tradition to start!  I will be sad when we have to say goodbye to Cheery on Christmas when she goes back with Santa until next Holiday Season!

P.S.  Since these pictures, Cheery has been sporting a cute skirt and has been wearing a bow on her hat.  She is so stylish!
