"I'll call you Santa Mouse"

No matter how hectic it gets at my house during the holiday season, we always stop on Christmas Eve night, gather in the living room, and I read Santa Mouse. A book my mom owned when she was little. Its been a tradition since I can remember and It's always something I look forward to.

"No Santa, I swear I've been nice"

That whole opening someone else's present was just a misunderstanding, we're cool now I promise.

Someone is ready for the holiday...

Hunter has been ready for Christmas since Thanksgiving! He never fails to put a smile on my face, especially when he is in his fancy clothes.

The stockings were hung by the (fake) chimney with care...

My girlfriend bought us stockings to have this Christmas. As a surprise, I made her a cardboard fireplace with boxes and oil pastels. Seeing her face light up with excitement was the best present I could ever get this holiday season.

"It wasn't me"

Hunter got a little excited or jealous about my mom's present's this year and just couldn't wait until Christmas. Or maybe he thought she would have trouble with all that tricky scotch tape and he wanted to help- that was probably it!! But that wouldn't explain that guilty look when we asked him about it...

Creepin'

If you look closely, you'll see a picture of my brother as a child. So it looks like he's lurking over the presents and anyone who tries to touch them. The photo has been there for the past fifteen years, but for some reason we just noticed it this Christmas.
