Santa Was Here!

Santa's elves played a prank on him and took pictures of him while he was delivering gifts. Then they stuck the pictures in the kids' stockings way down at the bottom so he wouldn't know they had done it. A few funny things, we noticed Clay was back up in his bed even though he was having a slumber party in Emmie's room that night. Emmie thought it was silly that Santa would bother to move Clay just so he could check on him in his own bed and not only that but change his pajamas first then bother to put him back and change him again. Clay thought it was pretty neat that he didn't remember any of it. He must have been dead asleep. I thought maybe he came in earlier in the week to check on them but that was obviously not the case Mom! The kids had it all figured out.

They were surprised Santa would go into the fridge. Then they realized we forgot to put out any snacks. They felt pretty bad about that. He ate all the rest of the split pea soup. Emmie was a little annoyed since she loves it so much. I told her it was OK because he did rinse out the container and put it in the sink. Emmie also thought it was pretty amazing how much Santa resembles Scott. Scott was working a 24 hour shift so there's his alibi. The one thing they thought was so funny was Santa getting stuck in the cat door. He probably won't try to come in that way again.Thanks for the pictures Santa's Elves! The kids are both relieved they were good enough this year. They kept their rooms clean the whole month of December. What an amazing accomplishment!
