Elf on the Shelf {day 1}

I decided to plan a whole month of silliness at the office with an Elf on the Shelf.  I thought we could use some excitement around here... it has been a very busy and stressful year.  A little extra fun around the holidays is always a good thing.

Since today was her first visit, I thought I would give the our elf the red carpet treatment by stringing out a big red ribbon.  Our sweet elf brought with her a letter from Santa and some powdered doughnuts :)

Santa's letter requested that we name our elf, so my boss asked everyone to submit names for a vote. The name options were:

1. Aleph
2. Millie
3. Willie
4. Ellie
5. Ms Rumchatta, the mischievous ELF

We took a vote this afternoon and the majority decided her name is Ellie the Elf.
