Mr Bob Jingles (Our Elf on the Shelf)

After seeing the idea around the internet for a couple of years we finally got our own Elf on the Shelf. After reading the story the kids decided on the name Bob for our Elf. I suggested that maybe they make it a bit more christmasy so they decided his last name would be Jingles. So it was Mr Bob Jingles, or Jingles for short!

He got up to all kinds of things while he was visiting our house. Haylie loved him the most. She still talks about him wondering how he is doing and when he will come back. Every morning she would race to try and find him then she would tell everyone she could, no she wouldn't just tell them, she would have to show them. Mum, Dad, Brock and Nana were often coming up to see where Jingles was by the request of Haylie. If we had any visitors they all had to check out what Jingles was doing that day too!

I shared what Jingles was doing each day on Facebook but I also wanted to do a blog post so that it would all be in one spot somewhere.
