Father Christmas and Advent

Sunday morning, the kids woke up to a happy surprise. Father Christmas had visited our house and left the kids some fun goodies in their shoes. 
  Santa also left a special visitor at our house! Adam and Tessa were excited to see Christopher. Gwen was a little confused by him, but now that she understands what's going on, she loves finding Christopher every morning. 

 Checking out their loot.

 Caleb liked that the M&M's made noisy toys. 

 CANDY!! 






 Caleb did not like that Adam got to eat candy and he didn't. Caleb is Tessa #2. He loves sugar!


 Gwen was the last one up and a bit disoriented by what was going on. But as soon as she found candy in her shoe, all was suddenly right with the world. 
 Santa brought the kids a fun Rudolph play set too. They girls played with it for hours that morning. 




 That evening we had Mamma, Aunt Lisa, Uncle Alex, Milo, Roxy, Ellie, Zeke, and August all come over for dinner and Advent. Our kids were so happy to see their cousins. After dinner, we taught everyone about Advent and sang our song and lit our candles. It was fun to share one of our special traditions with people we love. It was nice to spend some special time with everyone. We wish we saw them more often.
