I know, I know, it's not the "reason for the season"...but I do believe in magic..and in believing in magic. So, yes, Santa visits my "good girls"...because if you believe in him, he will come! We started our annual holiday tradition last night by baking gingerbread people! I'll spare you the hilarious photos of everything being rolled out and baked...and leave you with my three cuties decorating their people and eating all the candy that wasn't stuck down!
The plate for Santa looked like this...
and the stockings were hung by the chimney with care...and we watched our favorite Christmas movie (The Year without a Santa Claus) all cuddled up on the couch...
and then I tucked in my sugar plums till the agreed upon 9:30 am and....in the morning...we found this!!! The stockings were so heavy they were on the ground!! (plus some of the goodies didn't fit in the stockings, lol)
As you can see, the big girls were PRETTY darn excited by their stocking haul...Maddie got the Friday Night Lights season One box set and Jillie got the Vampire Diaries season Three box set...
Cammy loved her Pet Mermaid and Spiderwick Field Guide...(and all the candy!)
they weren't even that bummed by the "coal" (chocolate covered candy cane bits) Santa put in the toe of each of their stockings (because let's face it, no body's perfect) and in the end, even posed for a picture in their jammies..
Even Angel posed for a picture with her new collar and bow..(they both loved their new bones, too, but wouldn't pose for a picture with them, lol)
and had a lovely day together, watching "Home Alone" and other Christmas specials, eating breakfast for dinner and just enjoying the family time. I hope you and yours enjoyed your holiday as well, in whatever way you celebrate!! xoxo














Looks like a wonderful Christmas!! I loveeeeeeee all the photos!!!
