Scout our Elf

This year we had the Elf on a Shelf visit our house! Spencer was thrilled that he came and in the way he did. Our Elf actually dropped in and crash landed into our Christmas tree with a parachute!


Then came the process of trying to figure out a name for our Elf. It was quite the long process, because we had no idea what name would be best! Spencer at the last second came up with the best name, Scout, because he is an elf scout for Santa. 

So, here are some fun places Scout hid around our house every day to spy on what we all were doing, and seeing if we were doing what was good or bad.

The shower caddy.

 Spencer's stocking.

 Spencer thought this was great that Scout was playing Jenga with some of Spencer's stuffed animals. 
 Hanging around in the kitchen.

 Watching Elf...Buddy is probably a friend of his.

Uh-oh, we caught him sneaking some marshmallows!!!

Hanging out in Spencer's backpack.

Hiding behind some candles.

Just hangin' around. 

We loved having Scout around in our house, and he even followed us to Grandpa and Grandma's house until Christmas Day to make sure Spencer was being good!!! Hopefully we'll see him again this Christmas.

Very cute! Our Elf kept to our main living area so *new* places to observe from got more and more tricky. ;)
