ask and you shall receive

due to the several families we work into our holidays, we had our Christmas today & santa visited our house last night (which worked out well since we saw him just shortly before!).

when we returned from visiting santa, elle helped make chocolate chip cookies for him & got the carrots for the reindeer on the plate.

then we put a tired little girl to bed (who, on schedule, woke up at 6.30 the next morning...how did i get an early riser?)

santa brought;

a guitar!

an art easel with all the accoutrements necessary to create a masterpiece

a doctor's kit

mr potato head

& lots of surprises in everyone's stockings!

and now, the masterpiece!
