Christmas Eve

Since Santa comes to our house the morning of Christmas Eve, we were making him cookies and hot chocolate the Eve of Christmas Eve!

 Gettin' it all ready and pretending to eat Santa's cookies!

 Throwin' out the reindeer food!!

 Good Night! And now it's morning...

 The girls went over to see if Santa finished off all the cookies and found  a note that said to head outsdie for a surprise...

 They went out to find...a new TRAMPOLINE!

 While Daddy was cooking breakfast, Rylie got a hold of his deer rattle "pack rack"!

Our "Elf On The Shelf"

Our Elf, Mr. Popples, arrived this year to help Santa out with seeing all the "good" and "bad"! Mr. Popples is a funny little Elf...the girls were quite surprised to find him each morning after he returned from the North Pole.

 Guess he likes some Coca-Cola!

 Needs to brush those teeth!

 Crash Landing!

 Takin' a little drive!

 Finished off an entire M&M's bottle and tried to hide in Rylie's stocking!

 Gettin' into Daddy's present!

 Guess he may have helped Santa finish off his cookies and hot chocolate!

 Countin' down the days till Christmas with a chain they made with Aunt Holly!

Cousin Love

Lots of love between these girls...Katie, Presley, Rylie and Makenzi!!

Lookin' in a candy store...so cute!

Funny Little Story about the Pics:

These pictures were taken for Christmas gifts for grandparents a couple of days before Thanksgiving by Sandi.  When Grani saw us for Thanksgiving, this is Grani and Rylie's conversation:

Rylie: Yea, she's so sweet and cute except yesterday she was so crabby when we were taking pictures (then she froze, opened her mouth and put her hand up)

Grani: I wasn't supposed to know that, was I?

Rylie: No, you weren't.

Grani waited to tell me this after she got her picture collage.
