A Colorado woman may deserve an award for “best aunt” after surprising her niece and nephews for Christmas in true, festive fashion.
Aunt Alex and her sister-in-law, Lauren, told Fox News Digital that they’ve all the time loved surprising their family ultimately, and Alex’s most up-to-date visit was no exception.
“The Elf on the Shelf” is a well-loved tradition in Lauren’s home, so that they used it for inspiration as Aunt Alex posed similar to the “magical” Christmas doll
The 2 women, who requested their surname be omitted for privacy reasons, said they created and executed the prank in half-hour.
“It just got here to us. It appeared like a extremely great idea to do ‘Auntie on the Ledge,’” Lauren told Fox News digital.
Alex is seemingly the adventurous considered one of the 2, “not by selection, by force,” she said jokingly.
“I just sort of suck it up and do it anyway because I love the children. It’s nice to get a response out of them,” Alex told Fox News Digital.
Afer climbing a ladder to achieve the ledge under the 10-foot ceiling, Alex waited 25 minutes for the children to return home from their grandparents’ house.

The moment was documented and posted onto Lauren’s TikTok page, where the videos were viewed greater than 13 million times. It was also TikTok viewers who named the prank “Auntie on the Shelf,” Lauren said.
Lauren’s oldest son was quick to indicate where “Auntie on the Shelf” was hiding.
“It’s really hard to surprise him. We’ve got surprised him so repeatedly, it’s like one other normal day,” Alex said of her nephew.
Alex and Lauren said the children loved the prank and were very excited to see Aunt Alex, including Lauren’s daughter who got her own special surprise when she arrived later within the evening.
Alex began to spread more mischief just as “The Elf on the Shelf” sometimes does.
“We read off one another’s energy and I believe that’s where we give you quite a lot of our silly ideas probably the most. We just get one idea, and we just keep tackling on,” Alex told Fox News Digital.
Lauren and Alex stayed up one night blowing up 360 balloons to create a ball pit within the lounge.
“Auntie on the Shelf” even left her ledge to enjoy ice cream with the children.
“I used to be such a giant a part of “The Elf on the Shelf” once we lived together for some time, so it was only a cool thing to give you the chance to be ‘The Elf on the Shelf’ for the children as a substitute of peculiar them with a little bit elf [doll],” Alex said.
Aunt Alex said she cherishes this time with the children, especially around the vacations.
“Having the ability to surprise them a little bit bit before it does make me emotional because I like these kids to death,” Alex added.
Lauren told Fox News Digital that her sister-in-law is “an incredible aunt.”
