This morning the kids woke up with much excitement!!! C was up first and went in to get his sleeping Sissy before making a mad dash for the presents!
It is so much fun as a parent to watch how excited they get:) S was able to get presents from a PTA sponsored Santa Shop at school and was equally as excited about giving presents as she was about getting them!:) Sweet girl!!
I couldn't tell you favorites this year as they both had a ball with all the stuff! S got some matching clothes to wear with her American Girl doll, a bed for her doll, a Kindle, some books and games. C received everything with wheels - a bike, tractors, trucks, cars - and also "worker man tools" - saw, bike tools, hammers, measuring tape!
Boy also went home last night and left the kids a sweet note letting him know he would see them next year! They love their elf and have fun talking to him each day! We'll see him again for more fun next December!

Boy finally returned after a round trip walk to the North Pole. The kids
were instructed by Santa to spread the magic glitter he sent around the
house along with some sprinkled cinnamon so that Boy would
get his magic back and be able to fly again! |
 |
| Boy brought letters from Santa for the kids! |
 |
| S's letter |
 |
| C's letter |
 |
Jingle bells:) He brought each of the kids a jingle bell
necklace as well! |
After hastily transforming our living room/toy explosion into a dining area for family, we rushed to get everything ready for everyone to come for lunch!
It was loud, crowded, food-laden, crazy and wonderful! I wouldn't have it any other way!! Both of the kids were great and shared and took care of the littler ones! I was very proud of them both and glad to have the chance to visit with family too!
