Writing to Santa

It's a tradition that the girls can only ask Santa for three things.  Because, after all Jesus only received three gifts on the day he was born.

Our 'real' tree for our living room is not yet up but all of the others are up and welcoming.

So the girls wrote their letters in front of 'their tree' in the family room in front of the fire.

I kind of already know what they are going to write but sometimes I'm surprised.

Of course it's only once a year so there is a lot of thought that goes into that one letter.

It took Abigail more than one night to finish but Anna knew just what to say.

Abigail finished the next day during Anna's viola lesson.

And then we mailed them that very night. (so they can't change their minds)

And off they go. Next stop, North Pole!
