FAVORITE Christmas tradition is our Shepherd On the Search! Do you know about this?! It is the Christ-centered (WAY less creepy) version of the Elf on the Shelf. You can read all about it in THIS POST.
I gathered up my favorite ideas on how to pose your Shepherd On the Search each day leading up to Christmas. These ideas are super easy and lots of fun. And don’t worry, you will not need elaborate props or a ton of time because the best ideas use the stuff that you already have! That is how I like to roll.
Here are the ideas!

This will be our 3rd Christmas with our little Shepherd On the Search and I can’t wait to see what tricks he is up to this year!
