Every year the elf on the shelf appears at DD's. There are 2 elves, in fact, and they are meant to keep an eye on the kids so they can report to Santa whether they've been naughty or nice. But DD's elves do not do that, they have never ever told tales on the children.
Instead, DD's elves are the naughtiest elves anyone could ever imagine. Each and every day throughout December they get up to a trick and then they sit waiting for their naughty antics to be discovered.
This has included putting faces on the fruit on the fruit bowl, spilling cereal over the breakfast table during the night, trailing loo roll from the holder all around the landing and down the stairs, making the tree fall down, etc etc.
But this year, they saved the very naughtiest thing till last.
On Christmas Eve night, in the very early hours after Santa had been, the elves covered the entire doorway into the living room with Christmas wrapping paper. It looked very pretty but it also meant the doorway had to be unwrapped so that people could get in to get at their presents.
Naughty, naughty elves.
It occurred to me that it's a good thing mhoc wasn't there, else everyone would have had to get scissors and cut that giant-sized wrap into tidy squares to be saved for next year.
Not sure how I am going to get through the present unwrapping tommorow - they all look so pretty there all wrapped, ribboned and ready ...“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.

We’ve been ruined with gift sets haven’t we:o
I only did 3 shops I think but it was all I needed.
I have been impressed with some scented candles from the last Boots sale. They've burned the whole of Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I’ll look out for them again:)To do is to be. Rousseau
