Christmas Morning 2011!

This year was so amazing with Mollye! Three is a very magical age when it comes to Christmas!

She could not wait to get to bed- yes, to bed!!! She kept begging Daddy to hurry up with the "hot chocolate" for Santa.  She needed to get to sleep! They worked fast and made Santa a special drink!




Mollye did everything on these cookies! She poured, stirred, baked, and decorated! She was so proud of herself!

Santa CAME!!!
 


This was one of my favorite pictures.  She kept this excitement and love all day!

Funny how their favorite gifts are often priceless! She had begged all season to touch Boy- which is against the rules of Elf on the Shelf.  No fear, this little Adam Casey, had her fair share of attempting to touch him through out the season. She often would report that he was "soft."  Stinker, I tell you!

Well Santa was extra nice and left a secret box under her very own Christmas tree in her bedroom. Inside the box was BOY! He came with a letter- since it was Christmas he had extra magic and she could cuddle him all day! She LOVED this gift!


 Another favorite picture of mine! Mollye loves her Nanny T! I loved having my family over for Christmas morning! What a fun tradition to start!!!


Bittersweet picture.  Our last Christmas as a family of three! Great memories, and I know there are many more to come! 

Wow!!! One lucky girl!!!!


Good night, Mollye.  I will see you next season- Boy.

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season! The Casey's did!!!

New Christmas Tradition!



Christmas has long passed, but I could not allow myself not to blog about this wonderful season in our house! We started a new tradition this year- Elf on the Shelf returns via a breakfast!!! That's right "Boy" came back to see Mollye on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  Not only did he show up, but he showed up with a note from Santa, a small present from Santa, enough books to open one every night until Christmas, and a small breakfast! Mollye LOVED it!!! 

Meet- Boy! Mollye named him last year, and it was funny to watch her response to him this year.  You could tell she was not 100% sold on Boy, but what choice did she have!

Santa even had Boy write Mollye a letter! It helped for a few nights of getting her to sleep in her bed, but I must say Mommy just laying down the law helped more!

This was probably our favorite part! We loved opening a new book each night! It was fun to see what the present held and nothing is better than cuddling that little girl up and reading a good book!


Her new cup, place mat, plate, and small present! 

Yummy, doughnut!

What a cool cup Santa brought!!!

What could her present be???

TIANA! How did Santa and Boy know that she wanted that princess so bad!??!

Mommy wanted to keep the fun going so Mollye and I made snowmen pancakes.

Breakfast time!


This was a fabulous day in our house! I loved watching her face light up all morning- pure happiness! This will be a tradition for years to come!!!

More Christmas blogs to follow! Maybe I will be up to date by Valentine's Day:)
