Getting ready for the big guy!


Above Dave is spreading out some special reindeer food! The reindeer can smell this food from up to 100 miles away, so as soon as you put this out you have to hurry up and get ready for bed so that Santa can come!

Choosing just to right cookies to leave for Santa. (These are the cookies that Dave decorated by himself last week with Caleb, Noah, Caden and Aaron)

Pouring milk for Santa. And yes it's lactose intolerant milk just in case Santa is lactose intolerant, too!

And of course, since we don't have a chimney we have to hang to the special Santa key on the door so that the big important guy is able to come in!

Check out the video that Santa sent David!

One very tricky Elf!


And while we were celebrating Christmas Eve with Gram our elf was a busy little guy! When we got home there was a special package under the tree.


New Christmas pajamas for everyone!! So that way we would get a good nights sleep for the arrival of the head elf tomorrow!!!

Dave then found another treat in his room for the elf!

Some new Christmas bed time books to help him fall asleep quickly! So that Santa wouldn't pass over our house!

Christmas with Gram

Chris's family has always celebrated Christmas with Pies side on the family on Christmas Eve. So today we were off to West Chester to see Gram, MaryAnne, Gary, Megan and Colleen.

Gram opening her Christmas presents.

And Dave opening his Christmas presents. It was so nice to get to spend Christmas Eve with Gram! Thanks for inviting us to join you today!

Where's our Elf?? Day 14

Today, the Elf was reminding Dave that he should leave cookies and milk out for Santa, because tomorrow is the big day!!

Tracking Santa!

Today we will be tracking Santa's travels on N.O.R.A.D With every check Dave gets more and more excited for tomorrow morning.
