Last bit of Christmas Eve

So, the Monday before Christmas, Sydney asked me a very pointed question....is Santa real? She has been asking this question for about a year and hasn't really wanted the answer, but this year she got it. Two down...one to go. It's kind of sad when that magic is over, but she (just like Amanda) was excited to get to help with some things. I was excited that she could help with the elves as they don't move every night under my watch!
This was the first year in a long time that Santa came before 11:00pm....it was very nice to be in bed and get a good nights rest!
We also decided to dip pretzels and oreos and leave Santa a diet Dr. Pepper this year....delish!

so what's the big, tall red wrapped present? we had one that looked just like it but I'm guessing it wasn't the same thing...well, maybe-was it a Rapunzel tower??? :)

A full-length mirror for Miss Amanda! Thank goodness we have grown out of the Disney princess stage! :) Although, enjoy it while you are in it!
