Our Alternative to Elf on the Shelf is an actual shelf sitter.  He’s a snowman, but he came straight from the North Pole on Santa’s orders to look after our kiddos during the month of December.  For more about our Elf on the Shelf Alternative check out my post from last year.

This year, Hunter, our snowman from Santa came with a letter from Santa and a LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar, because Santa knows that two of my boys’ favorite things are LEGOs and Star Wars!
