I put him in my room Christmas eve, night time, and then after Christmas when we were putting all the Christmas things away I'm so sure that I remember thinking "I'll put him in here with the Christmas things so I don't lose him" DH insists that he got all the decorations out the loft but I've just realised as I came up the stairs to bed that I haven't put any tinsel up this year so there's got to be a box with that in. DH was certain Friday that he'd got everything out then found more when all our tree decs were missing so it wouldn't surprise me that he'd missed another box up there.
Last year was our first year with an elf so I didnt really have a set place in mind for him. I should have written it down or something. I think this year I'll make a note in here then I can find the post again next year if I lose him again
