ReplyDeleteI wanted to get one but never got round to it but next year maybe!
ReplyDeletethis is my comment I don't know why it came up like that x
DeleteNo, not this year
ReplyDeleteNot for us as my son is scared of the elf.
ReplyDeleteWe had an elf but it's not an elf on the shelf one as my daughter was scared of it. Our elfs name was Freddie but my daughter always called him Elfie :)
ReplyDeleteNot for us, I hadn't heard of them until now, will more than likely get one next hear though after seeing yours
ReplyDeleteNo Elf in our house, either, but it has been fun reading about them.
ReplyDeleteNo but maybe for this Christmas.
ReplyDeletewe watched ELF on the telly if that counts
ReplyDeleteYes we did and his name was Tony.....unfortunately our big tabby, Billie, kept knocking him down...so he was quickly resigned to the cupboard....hope that counts haah
ReplyDeleteIve never heard of elf on the shelf,is it a kid thing are adults involved. May be next year.
ReplyDeleteWe had one called Colin!
ReplyDeleteNo Elf on the Shelf here, I find them a bit disturbing to be honest...I know I'm an idiot!
ReplyDeleteyes, we had Jingle visit us. Although my youngest called him 'Gingle'.
ReplyDeleteno, I have no idea what elf on a shelf is.
ReplyDeleteNo but i definately want to get one for next year
ReplyDeleteNo I'm far too lazy and would probably forget most nights!!
ReplyDeleteWe didn't have.. :/
ReplyDeleteNo we didn't have an elf on the shelf this Christmas - it seemed like too much work and stress. However, my 8 year old is convinced he had an elf in his room who randomly played Christmas music at 5am (it later transpired it was his alarm clock!) so it looks like we'll have to do it next Christmas! I think I'm going to be spending a lot of time researching tricks! But if it keeps the magic alive for another couple of years, it will be well worth it.
ReplyDeleteNo. We didn't have one either!
ReplyDeleteno
ReplyDeleteWe didn't have one as I hadn't heard of them before reading about yours definately going to have one on our shelf this Christmas
ReplyDeleteNo elf here
ReplyDeleteYes we did, Alfie Trinket came to our house for Christmas, he got up to all kinds of mischief during the night. The girls couldn't want to see what he'd been up to each morning!
ReplyDeleteno not this year, but will do next year
ReplyDeleteNo not this year as my children where not really old enough to understand but will certainly have a naughty little elf on the shelf next year :)
ReplyDeleteNo not this time
ReplyDeletenext year we are going to give the elf a go x should be fun
ReplyDeleteNot this year but will next year! I've seen some very amusing pictures!
ReplyDeleteNo not this year
ReplyDeleteour little elf was called Breezy
ReplyDeleteWe didn't have one this year but have so many great ideas from friends who did that we will definitely be getting a visit this year
ReplyDeleteMy 3 children had one each, Davie, Scout and Evie. And they came back today with a wee birthday card and letter for my wee birthday girl and the kids were over the moon they were back lol
ReplyDeleteNo we didn't but what a lovely idea:)
