Elf On The Shelf 2012

Buddy, our Elf on the Shelf, came to visit on December 1.  Each morning during the month we found Buddy in a different location in our house.  Here is the photo recap of his whereabouts each day until Christmas Eve when he reported back to the North Pole.  To see where he showed up last year, you can look here, here, here, here and here.

Buddy followed us to the Twin Cities while we stayed with Mike’s parents to celebrate an early Christmas.  The final two photos were taken at their house.

We said good-bye to Buddy on the 24th.  We look forward to his return next December.
