Christmas Morning!
Santa left a note...
and ate most of the cookies and drank our milk!
PRESENTS!!!
Up at 8:30AM!
Lukas was the first one up!
For Santa & Reindeer
When we got home at 1:00AM, the boys had to leave out cookies and milk for Santa. Lukas left his notebook out for Santa to leave them a note and Landon had to go out and sprinkle his reindeer food he made in school! They were so excited, but fell asleep as soon as their heads hit their pillow.

Is there really a Santa Claus?
Well, the day has finally come...Lukas questioned me (mommy) about Santa Claus tonight. :(
It was very depressing! I don't really know why this is such a shock, since he is 8 years and in third grade, but it is. Of course, I threw the question right back at him "Do you believe?". What parent wouldn't?! We had a brief conversation and I think I was convincing enough to gain another year or two!
I told Ben about this when I got him up for work and he said "Do you think we should just tell him?" and I said absolutely NOT! I want our children stop believing on their own. I want these days to last as long as they possibly can!
Our conversation:
Lukas: "Mommy, is there really a Santa Clause"?
Mommy: Do you believe in Santa?
Lukas: Yes, but friends at school told me that our parents are Santa and that their dads put on santa suit and put the presents under the tree. Does Daddy have a santa suit?"
Mommy: "No! Daddy doesn't have a Santa suit. Why would he?"
Lukas: "I don't know."
Mommy: "You know what they say, if you don't believe, you don't receive." I think I got him on that
one:)
Lukas: You know what, Mommy. I guess my friends at school can't hear the bell anymore. Awe, so sweet!
Mommy: I guess not. :(

Acolyte
Lukas is old enough to be an Acolyte at our church. They asked to him to join last month and today was his first time! He did a wonderful job. He really enjoyed it and asked if he could do it again next Sunday. Our baby is getting so big.
We are so proud of you, LUKAS!!!
