Look what we got!!


It is really feeling like Christmas time. It is in the 40's with a cold wind, snow on all the surrounding mountains & even ice this morning. We are breaking out our winter clothes (but coming from CA we have very few warm enough:). We love having the tree lights on and the fireplace going.

About a week ago Jillian & Carter wrote letters to Santa & today (with the help of Gma P) they got letters back. There was much excitement, running around & yelling when I told them what had arrived. We sat & read them together on the couch & I am happy to report that Santa considers both children to have been mostly good this year and there will be presents on Christmas:) They are saving their letters under the Christmas tree.

Thank you Santa & helper, for making their day!!!!

What a great idea! I will have to try that next year, I know my MIL would love to write the letter they are so into that kind of thing.

It was a lot of fun & the kids were so excited. My MIL is even saving the letters that the kids sent to Santa so we will have those too. That's one benefit of having family do it, also she made them more personal about things the kids have done and stuff.

I love the pictures Jamie! Tennyson was sooo excited when he got his letter from Santa too! He kept asking me if he was on the good list. See you guys pretty soon.
