'Twas the Night Before Christmas

The reindeer, the elves, and Santa Clause are going to be very happy to visit our house tonight!  Oats are waiting in the yard.  Inside is a glass of milk, a ham and cheese sandwich, two cookies, and a little row of elf donuts.  The sandwich is a tradition that J started when he was just one.  We continue it every year because Santa needs more nourishment that just cookies! 










We read our last wrapped books, 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and Who's That Knocking on Christmas Eve.  The kids are snuggled tight in their beds and Santa is ready to get to work. 
Sleep tight everyone!

Day 1

To begin our 25 days of Christmas celebration, we had a little "sleepover" in the living room and watched How the Grinch Stole Christmas.  We made a big pallet in the floor and read our books while drinking hot chocolate before watching the movie.  Mamaw and Papaw even joined us for a little while. 


J was excited and decided next time we should invite friends over!
