Christmas 2008

We had such a great Christmas this year. It was SO much fun to watch Drew's excitement and innocence! He was hilarious sprinkling reindeer food on the lawn and shouting into the night "reindeer, santa claus... COME SEE US!!!" He was so glad to see that Santa had eaten all of his cookies and drank all of his milk! We spent most of Christmas week at my parents' house and then Sat/Sun after Christmas at Carls' parents' house. Fun times were had by all!! Drew is just having a hard time understanding that Christmas is over. He saw a toy on TV this week and said "Mommy, I want this for Christmas!" And he still can't seem to understand why Elf (our Elf on the Shelf) isn't here anymore. The slide show below begins with Drew in his Christmas program at school. The younger 3's just had a small role... singing the chorus of "O, Come All Ye Faithful" at the end of the play. Well, Drew was not going to have any part of it. He didn't cry, he just didn't participate! He was way too interested in what was going on behind him
