Santa's Coming





The kids are beside themselves with excitement and joy about Santa coming tonight. We went out to dinner and as soon as we got home they raced each other to the bathroom to brush teeth and wash faces. They jumped into bed immediately and then Magali kept coming out into the living room to remind Sara that Sara should go to bed SOON, so Santa can come.

We get hired by the coolest, sweetest people. Today Allison and Matt, whose wedding we photographed in October, brought me a plate full of homemade cookies and brownies. They were amazing and I ate them all with my family and didn't give any to Erica :)

Dash's favorite thing on the plate was this cookie made of chocolate, peanuts, and marshmallows. He decided to give Santa one of those cookies and also half of his candy cane that he had been saving all day.

After he made this decision he asked me if Santa might be allergic to peanuts. I told him Santa was probably not allergic. But after we got home Dash wrote a note that he put on the plate he had made for Santa. The note says, "Help Yourself. Turn Over." and when you turn the folded page over it says, "Chocolate has peanuts Santa." He then put some apples in the plate along with a note that says, "Apple's for reindeer."

Sara likes to get new pajamas for the kids on Christmas Eve. Here are some pictures of those as well.
