The stockings where hung with care, the cookies were out for Santa, & carrots for the reindeer - all in anticipation of Santa's visit to our house. One of my favorite things about Christmas is the anticipation of the kids reaction to the presents under the tree. Not because of the giving of the gifts, it is the excitement on their faces that makes all the hustle and bustle well worth it.
This year Madie really made Jon & I laugh, she had taken the time to put cookies & carrots out for Santa & the Reindeer. She fell asleep on the couch though before everyone left, and half asleep she raised her head just to say "Don't let Papa eat Santa's treats Dad!" and was fast alseep again in a flash! Jon tried talking to her, but she was fast alseep. If any of you know Jon's Dad, you know how funny this is with his sweet tooth. Moments like these are treasured times to remember.
