enjoying dinner one night by the lights of the tree

putting cookies and milk out for santa

they left it outside because they were scared of santa coming into our house, so we told them we’d tell santa to leave their gifts outside and then we’d carry them in

santa came!!!

getting up together and checking out what santa brough

so sweet

look at all this cool stuff!

 

opening up their ‘together gift’

ping pong paddles?!

what could it be?!

a game table was sitting out on the porch for them…mama and papa couldn’t get it in along with everything else santa left and we had to carry in.  it’s a multi game table …it flips for pool, ping pong, shuffle board, bowling, etc…
