Christmas

I am loving the holiday season and loving it even more now that Kade is getting the hang of this whole Santa and Elves thing as well.  We put up our decorations in the house and each year I acquire more and more items, which is also getting fun, but Jared didn't do lights this year.  We were out of town the first couple weekends this month and we just both agreed we will go a little further with it next year to make up for not putting any up this year.  I want my kids to always remember Christmas and any holiday for that matter to be all about family, happiness and the celebration of things. 

With that said I purchased the Elf on a Shelf in hopes that it would bring more cheer into our home and pump my little guy up more and more.  So far Kade just gets a kick out of everything Boo does.  I named him boo, because he is always popping up everywhere and it just kinda stuck.  We love our little elf, but I will say it hasn't affected Kade's behavior too much, but from time to time I will throw in that boo is watching and things do kinda settle down.  Oh how I love Christmas and I still have a billion memories in my heart from when I was a little girl.  I try and pull those moments that were special to me and add to that to hopefully make my children's Christmas just as special or more.  Happy Holidays everyone! Tis the Season!!!!


He's become one of our family members ;)
