Deck the Halls

We are getting all ready for Christmas and the girls loved decorating the house and putting up the tree.  Lily and Juliet wrote adorable letters to Santa, which we took to the North Pole mailbox, and then they got to meet the man himself!  They sat on his lap and told him what they wanted for Christmas (Lily went into great detail).  They loved the fake snow and naughty-or-nice meter in Santa's Village.  We also went to a tree lighting ceremony, where daddy got big kisses from his girls.

Letters to Santa

Lily and Juliet met Santa yesterday! Our mall has a really cute North Pole setup with little elf houses, a snow machine making snow fall on us as we waited, and a naughty or nice meter to gauge if the kids were good this year. Juliet ran to Santa when it was our turn but then she didn't want to sit on his lap once she got up there. Lily loved it though and whispered her Christmas wish in his ear.

We're nearly ready for the holidays and the girls have had fun decorating and preparing. Lily wrote a letter to Santa and drew a picture for him (of her birthday party, the happiest thing she could think of). Then we mailed it at the Santa mailbox in Macy's to be sent to the North Pole. Lily keeps asking if it's Christmas yet, so we're doing an advent calendar, counting down the days!
