Our Elf: Week One, 2011

Our Elf is named Brief Houser.  He was named by my son (now 5) because the elf only visits our “house” for a “brief” time.  Brief Houser came to us in 2008 and it has been a pleasure to have him return each year during the holiday season.  For those of you who maybe haven’t heard of the magic of the Elf on the Shelf … they are the secret way Santa keeps track of ALL the boys and girls during the holiday season.  Elves fly back to Santa every night to report good and bad behavior … only to return (and sometimes hide or get into mischief) by the next morning.

Here’s where we have found him this week:

Stay tuned for more of Brief Houser’s adventures as we count down to Christmas!
