Well, Santa gave us a call earlier this week. Apparently, the Huntsman kids have been so good this year, our family was specially selected to have an elf sent to our house. He arrived Saturday evening, after a long transpolar plane trip. He told us they bumped him up to first class, so his flight wasn't too bad. Once at our house, he rang the doorbell and then jumped up on the porch to wait for us to come to the door. Cole was the most excited, since his friend Grace, from his class, also was selected to have an Elf on the Shelf at her house. So, the kids greeted the Elf and I brought him inside to find a comfortable spot for him. Cole grabbed the book and jumped on the couch with his sisters so they could get the instructions on how to care for their Elf. First, they named him Mumzy and got him a couple swirly chocolate chips. His diet consists of sugar, candy canes and syrup. They learned that they can't touch him or else his magic disappears. And that he's watching their every move. He slept the first night, because of he had some killer jet lag. But, this afternoon, after our Sunday naps, Mumzy moved! Cole found him hanging out on our light above the dining room table. Silly Mumzy! The kids are on their best behavior, knowing he's going to report back to Santa. I think he said something about e-mailing the big guy tonight. So, we'll see where we find him tomorrow morning.

There are all sorts of crazy elves at our neighbors houses too! I guess they left out some saltine crackers and water and they just appeared! I told Dallin maybe next year we might be lucky enough to get a house elf as well.
I want your Elf! You have to tell me how to be selected to be a "Host" to a fabulous Elf! He is so cute and your kids seem to be really enjoying him. Send Info. A.S.A.P!!!
