Top 5 List: Christmas Version

TOP 5 INDICATIONS YOU HAVE YOUNG CHILDREN AT CHRISTMAS

5. You had to remove the back seats from the van to prepare for family Christmas visits.
4. You plan ahead by taking gobs of large shopping bags for ease of loading.
3. You've done 3 loads of laundry, consisting of all new clothes. One of those loads consisted entirely of socks and underwear. (stocking stuffer of choice!)
2. It takes you 3 days to clear the plethora of brimming bags and boxes from visits to find homes for all the new stuff.
1. You have to re-arrange kids' bedrooms to make it all work! Really, I did!

"Elefun" was a real hit at the Ellis Christmas. The kids loved it!These are altered cookie sheets I made for our parents to hang on their fridges. I thought they turned out nice, so I snapped a pic of them to remember procedures. Some day, I'd like to do one for myself!

Those cookie sheets are ADORABLE Heather. You are so crafty. Sounds like you had a busy busy Christmas. Isn't it funny how our experience is so dim now, just enjoying the priceless times with our kids. Love you sister, Jaime
