Santa's Hard Work

At our house Santa always leaves new bedroom slippers outside the kids bedroom doors. This overwhelms them to think that Santa was actually standing right outside their doors. Here are Rebekah and McKinney's slippers. They are at the same door because they were sleeping together (see previous post).

And Micah's sweet "yiyon" slippers.

Five full stockings and lots of candy Santa dropped.

Santa brings the kids three gifts each. We explain that the Wise Men brought Jesus three gifts and this is a great way to keep them from asking for or receiving too much.

I know most of you don't really care to see or hear about what Santa brought my kids, but I print this blog and wanted it for the blog book - so just skip this post if you are bored with these details.

This year Rebekah asked for a bed and accessories for her American Girl as well as a "surprise" and a Wii. Santa surprised her with a typewriter. Yes - it surprised me too. I don't even know how to use a typewriter, but she loves it and plans on writing books with it.

McKinney asked for Incredible Hulk smash hands and mask, a light saber, and a crocheted blanket for his special bear, Blueberry. The Wii is with his stack because it was a gift for the whole family.

Micah, with my help, asked for a Cozy Coupe, a Giant Pegboard, and the Mega Bloks table.
