Merry Christmas


Merry Christmas all!! We've had the most wonderful day so far, just Brad, Emerson and I. She opened her presents this morning (well we did most of the work) and then she konked out. This Christmas stuff is hard work. We started some new traditions this year, we did the Elf on the Shelf, which is a cute story about an elf that sits in your house and keeps an eye on children and reports to Santa every night, making it back to your house by morning and sitting in a new spot, so it's fun for kids to find where the elf is in the morning. We read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and the Legend of the Candy Cane. We opened one present last night...Christmas pajamas to sleep in and to open up presents in the morning. We had cinnamon rolls this morning because I forgot to take rolls out of the freezer in time to make monkey bread, O'well it didn't ruin the day. We are just going to take it easy and listen to Christmas music and play a few games, and later have tacos (there is a story to that). Enjoy the photo of the most precious little girl with her haul from Santa. I'm off to kick Brad's butt at scrabble.
