Santa Stop Here ...

This year Justin and Makenna really got excited about the countdown to Christmas day.  We did 3 advent calendars … which really helped them to understand how many days they had to wait.  We’ve had wrapped presents under the Christmas tree for weeks so I was super proud that they have both waited so patiently for this day to come.
Cookies, Oranges and Milk for Santa and the Reindeer ... plus notes from Justin and Makenna

 Elmo found his stocking!
 The mess
Santa brought Justin 500 Denver Broncos trading cards ... Daddy helped him sort them all out
This is all Makenna has talked about for weeks ... A Hello Kitty Candy Jar 

This is what Justin has been asking for ... a John Elway Rookie Card.

We had two very happy kids on Christmas day.  Justin crawled into bed on Christmas night and said "mom I know Santa is real cause he brought us everything we wanted ... this was the best Christmas ever".  I crawled into be with a smile on my face.  Another year with more memories ... What a blessing!
