A Visit From An Elf And A Snow Day...In TEXAS?!

































Maya and Cortlyn received a book yesterday called "The Elf on the Shelf"--It is so cute and encourages them to be good between now and Christmas. Last night, Mac read it to us and this morning, much to our surprise, there really was an elf in our house! =) Each day the elf stays put in our house to see if Maya and Cortlyn are being naughty or nice and, when they go to sleep, he magically flies to the North Pole to report his findings to Santa. Before we awake in the morning, he has already made his way safely back to our house (AMAZING!) to continue his watch. This morning we found him sitting in Maya and Cortlyn's bathroom. They were in awe!




And..Yes, it's hard to believe, but it actually did snow today--for more than just a few seconds and it stuck to the ground! Not quite the same as Colorado, but it was still fun to see and play in. =) Even Kicks enjoyed running around in it! We wrapped up the evening with some nice, warm hot chocolate--YUM!
