Santa and His Elves!!!!

Last week we took the boys to see Santa! We went to the Anniversary Inn to their open house! Santa was there for the kids. So after we were done looking at all the rooms we took them over to see the big man! Trey was so funny he ran right up to Santa but totally forgot what he was suppose to do when he got there! He sat there for a second and then hoped right off with out telling Santa what he wanted! We hurried and stopped him and told him that he forgot to tell him what he wanted, He has after all been talking about what he wanted for the whole tour! So anyway he ran back over to Santa and whispered, "I want a Handy Manny Truck!!" he quickly turned around and ran away!



When I was little Santa's Elves would come to our house and leave us a little present! It would remind us that we needed to be good because they would tell Santa if we deserved Christmas or not! I decided to start this with Trey and it has been so fun! The Elves come once a week usually on Mondays! What we do is just get him a little prize then one of us runs it out to the front door ring the bell and run! Trey runs to the door when ever the door bell rings so it makes it super fun! Every time that he opens the door and sees his little prize on the porch he gets so excited that the elves came to his house! It's been alot of fun and I can't wait to do it with Jack next year with little Jack! Trey talks about it all week and looks forward to the Elves coming to visit his house!

That is such a great idea, I might have to try it with my kids, they would go crazy.
