The two elves in the photo are elves that were on our family Christmas tree when I was very young. They are over 50 years old. I used to sit on the couch late at night with the lights on the tree and gaze at the elves they were so cute. When I got married I asked my mom for them and she gave them to me. Really they are the only things I have from my childhood. They are disintegrating so I keep them sealed in plastic. I thought it would be nice to do a Christmas layout for them because to me when I was little they brought to me the magic of Christmas. They were my Magic Christmas Elves. I passed the tradition on to my daughter and when she was about 5 years old I overhead her telling my dad that she wanted to set glue traps to catch a real one. That's when they got sealed in the bag for safe keeping. Christmas was always my favorite time of the year! Thanks so much for looking and enjoying this moment with me~
