The excitment is building around here as the kids anxiously await Christmas day! "Frisky", our family elf (see www.elfontheshelf.com to learn more about that tradition), made his last trip to see Santa last night and report as to whether Elle and Brooks have been naughty or nice. Today will be full of last minute errands, naps (hopefully), the church Christmas Pageant, making Santa's cookies, and more. I will try to post pictures of our Christmas Eve and morning activities before we leave for Tennessee tomorrow night.
Here are a few pictures of a Christmas party the kids had on Friday with friends. We have a great group of friends that try to get together at least monthly, although it gets harder as the kids get older. The kids drew names for Christmas this year and "Santa" came to hand out the gifts. Elle was onto him right away, whispering "Mom, that's not the real Santa!". I explained that Santa is so busy that sometimes he has people dress up to help him. She accepted that, and agreed to not tell the others that he wasn't the real one!
