We have started some new traditions this Christmas.

Our new favorite is the magic elf that lives at our house the month of December. He can be found in a different spot each morning. He reports back to Santa how the girls are behaving. The girls look forward to finding the elf every morning. (It is a Gma Wheat original which makes it extra special.)

Grandma Martin came over one afternoon to make Christmas cookies. We made cranberry, chocolate and little mice cookies. We are hoping this turns into a yearly tradition. :)

Grandma Kathy had the girls over and made a fun gingerbread house but the real hight light was the pj party she held for all the grandchildren. They danced, ate pancakes, frosted cookies, made cards and ornaments.
