Where is Your Elf on the Shelf?

Share where your Elf on The Shelf is hanging out this holiday season.

I've seen plenty of photos from parents online recently, featuring each family's Elf on the Shelf. They're hiding in tough-to-spot locations, playing with toys or getting into trouble. There are only so many hiding places left for elves before Christmas Eve comes, and we want to see where your elf is hanging out until Santa arrives.  Add your photo by clicking on the "Upload Photos and Videos" icon. While you're at it, what's the name of your elf? Tell us in the comments below.
