Christmas 2011

Christmas day is a few hours away and the kids are excited. We have had a wonderful holiday season thus far. We started a new tradition as Buddy, our elf, came to visit us from the north pole. We have really enjoyed his stay with us. He has been keeping us on our toes as we try to find his new hiding spot everyday. Every morning JJ wakes up and comes into the living room and says, "where's Buddy?". He gets so excited when he finds him too. Tonight we went to Christmas Eve at Aunt Brth and Uncle Ken's house. The kids did great! Reese fell asleep on the way home, but JJ was too excited to sleep. When we got home we all went down to the tree to open our Christmas pajama's. JJ and Reese then put out Santa's cookies and milk along with a carrot for each of Santa's reindeer. JJ decided that he wanted one of Santa's cookies and snagged it before we could stop him. I hope Santa doesn't put him on the naughty list for that :-). Reese had her bottle and fell right asleep, but JJ was not the same. After he tore off his last chain on his countdown chain he then talked until 10:50. I'm so excited to watch them open their presents and stocking. Tomorrow should be a great day.
