With kids that are getting older and wiser, it has been a lot of fun to do more and more at Christmas time that develops family traditions. This year we of course baked cookies for Santa. The kids had so much fun with it. Hailey thought Santa's would want extra chocolate chips. Ethan thought extra sugar would be just perfect. We also sprinkled reindeer food on the porch to attract Santa's sleigh. The kids really thought that was awesome. Good thing we live in Wyoming and the wind blows enough that by morning it was all gone. (Of course taken by the reindeer!) We also tracked Santa on the internet to see if he was getting close to us. It was a great motivator for the kids to get to bed quick! Last of course we read the Christmas story straight form the scriptures. I love that my children are so willing to learn about this special time of the year and about the birth of our savior. Dan and I stayed up late getting gifts ready and preparing for the perfect Christmas morning.
