Meet Simon

We were so Lucky, Santa sent a special little elf to our house after Thanksgiving. Simon is a very special elf, he reports back to santa if we are being naughty or nice and every morning he is hiding in a new location. He has really helped us to make sure that we are doing everything we can to get on Santa's good list this year.

It is so funny every morning Lydia runs out of bed looking for Simon (she also calls him Theadore, or Alvin...I think she thinks he is named after the chipmunks...I will educate her later he is actually named after Simon Cowell from American Idol, ha ha ha) Anyways this has been such a fun year, Lydia is actually getting Christmas and loves all the movies and music. If you ask her what she wants for Christmas she will first tell you what her cousins Bode and Raini want and then she will tell you "a barbie" (lucky me...I hated barbies growing up, oh well)

Also how do you like our gingerbread house, we didn't throw our annual sweater eggnog party this year due to having a baby, having the dance recital later this year, and just needing a break so Lydia and I decorated our own gingerbread house for Family Home evening this year, Lydia had a lot of fun eating the candy and I had a lot of fun decorating!
