Year of Tate: Day 358

Christmas Eve at my grandma's house. Holding the present like this was all Tate's idea.

Christmas Pictures/ Year of Tate: Day 350

This year we went to Fotofly to get Santa pictures. Pictures are kinda difficult with a baby.

Elf on a Shelf

I don't get it.  I think it's stupid and a waste of time and resources.  That being said, all I know about Elf on a Shelf is what I see on Facebook and Pinterest.

And why is the elf such a little turd?  Can't he do nice things like wash the dishes or vacuum the floors while he's watching and reporting back to Santa?

I've never actually read the book.  For any of you out there who love your little elf and are now cursing me and getting ready to leave a scathing comment, don't.  I already know what you'll say and I've tucked it nicely into my brain.

Elf on a Shelf is just not for me.  But, if it does ever happen, I will use it to scare the h.e. double hockey sticks out of my kids.  And our elf would do the dishes occasionally.
