Gnome on the Throne

We've decided to start a strange new tradition here for our Morehouse Christmas season. So you may have heard of "Elf on a Shelf", where a small puppet elf thing is placed in various spots around the house doing mischievous things and keeping his eyes on children to report back to Santa.
Well, I thought that was kind of a cute idea, but since we are Morehouse's, of course we have to incorporate a gnome somehow! So we have come up with "Gnome on a Throne". Our knitted gnome has traveled all the way here from England. He remains nameless until Brigham can name him (next year maybe?), and has been hiding in different places around our house. Ted and I take turns hiding and finding him. So far that's about all he does...but when our kiddos are older I'm thinking we can make up a story to go along with him:)
