Wow, I feel like that is kind of creepy, but a little cute lol.
My mother used to put these really creepy elves on our mantel over the fireplace. They were seriously the most creepy and outdated things I have ever seen. It got to the point when we were all in college and finally my brother asked my mom to stop putting them out. We confessed that they really creeped us out. It got to become a really big joke and my mom would randomly put the elf in random spots without us knowing. Like in the bathroom, our bedrooms, etc. Just to creep us out. haha
Since we will all be home for Chrsitmas this year. I might have to get the elves out.
