Christmas Eve

This is the year we started the "Elf on the Shelf" tradition.
Our elf, appeared about 2 weeks before Christmas and reports back to Santa every night on the goings on in the Shepherd house. 
He was so effective, all I had to do was look at him and the boys went into best behavior mode. 
He made several funny appearances, reading a book, hanging from the tree, making snow angels in the sugar, spying from the skylight.



 Papa and Grammie had dinner and read bedtime stories.

We put out cookies for Santa, Apples, Carrots and "Celerine" aka Celery for the reindeer.






and then visions of sugarplums danced in their heads. . . 

 The next afternoon we went to Papa and Grammie's for more presents. 
We had our own LEGO Christmas, but for some reason I don't have pictures right now. 
Must be on a different camera to be uploaded later.
