Elf on the Shelf

We are starting the tradition of the Elf on the Shelf.  If you haven't heard of this (like I hadn't before Pinterest-more on that site later) it's an Elf that you place around the house every night in a different spot and the kids have to find him/her the next morning.  The elf also comes with a book that tells the kids that the elf leaves every night and reports to Santa and tells him if they've been good or not.  The kids can't touch him or else he'll lose his Christmas magic powers and then he will leave and won't come back.  Kyin named him Brightly.  So..here he is...Brightly.  His first stop is, of course, the Christmas tree.
