When I was Eden's age I was lucky enough to actually have my two front teeth out during Christmas and I love that I have a video of Eden (couldn't get it to load-too long) just like me singing on Christmas Eve "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth"
Cookies for Santa...Carrots for the Reindeer...Not too much milk ???? Because they wanted him to be able to drink the other kids' milk too!
The creatures weren't stirring...
Not even my little "mouse"
Waking up to check out how hungry Santa was....Funny thing is that Eden has known forever about Santa not being alive anymore; but she begged basically to still get to pretend to believe in him. I think she believes a bit still about the "magic" and surprise behind Santa and gift exchanging because we told her how Santa was a real man and all the wonderful things he really did in this cool book in Leavenworth on one of our annual Tree Lighting Trips about Jesus and Santa and the history behind it. So basically in our home...Santa "worked" for Jesus. And that gift giving is "working" compassion into the world with this tradition and the celebration of Christ's birth...

They definately still believe in reindeer and listening for the hoofs and bells! The Tooth Fairy is very alive in their minds....as well as elves. Elf people are who make all the toys for them and they make them at Big Toy Factories!
Stocking Un-Stuffing

Helping Hands and Heart?.....or.....She just couldn't wait to see?
Thank you Daddy for my Care Bear (Char Bear she calls them) Puzzles!
Hallé opening her huge Sleepy Time Care Bear (Char Bear) that Eden picked out and helped pay for to give to her...She LOVES it ans sleeps with it everynight (good pick Eden).
The girls giving Daddy his gifts they made and the Tackle Box with the right dividers he wanted.
Thank you Daddy; Muuuuuaaaaaahhhhhh!
Hallé helping Mommy get all her new frames out that she wanted.
The Doll that Hallé did actually pick out off the computer; she loves the 60 sayings and that it's a "pee pee in the potty singing doll!"
The Polly Pocket Mega Mall that Eden didn't ask for and had never seen....but freaked out about! Mommy keeps saying that she wishes she was a polly pocket sometimes. They have hot tubs in the back of their cars, amazing pool parties, and to die for wardrobes!!!
~Thank you Grampie and Grammie for loving on us all the way from Florida.~

My awesome $6 Craigslist find for Eden to have her own Blonde locks for the Hannah Montana Highlighter to show up on and so she can learn to braid!
~Off to Go-Jo and Papa's House~
