Christmas Cards~My favorite thing

Other then celebrating the real reason for the Season~The birth of Jesus, Christmas cards are my favorite thing, not the presents, not the food, not the shopping, it's the Christmas cards, they tie with turning off the lights all except the Christmas tree lights, and laying under the tree looking up at the lights, love, love, love!

This is what I came home to yesterday:

5 Christmas cards.........so much fun. My goal is to get a card everyday starting Dec. 1st, my first card every season is always from the Shearer family, they have beautiful kids and we don't get to see them as often as we'd like. Always love their cards!

We are going to start praying for the families that send us cards, I've heard of others doing this and I think it's wonderful, and what a great thing to teach your children!

Today we hosted a North Pole Party, lots and lots of fun! When we got home and checked the mail, Santa had sent the boys a letter in the mail from the North Pole, what awesome timing, huh? We read them after our company left so that no one felt left out. The boys loved their letters. Here is a sneak peak at them!

And here is a sneak peak at the reindeer food we made tonight:

A big thanks to Nini for printing the labels for me! The kids had a blast, and Santa is sure to stop at our house because we have sparkly Reindeer Food.
