A new addition to our house this Christmas was our "Elf on the Shelf" that Santa sent from the North Pole to keep an eye on the kid's behavior for him. They named him Jack. Every morning when they woke up Jack was in a different location in the house. They loved to look for him as soon as they got up in the morning. They were kind of scared of him, especially at first. When I read them the book about how he reports back to Santa about them, Noah started crying.
At our church in front of their beautiful tree in the foyer.
Emily and I went to EPCOT one afternoon to go to the Candlelight Processional and visit the countries.
Los Tres Reyes Magos in Mexico or to us gringos the Three Wise Men
Chita Rivera was that evening's celebrity narrator at the Candlelight Processional. It was supposed to have been Vanessa Williams but she cancelled. This event is one of my favorite things to see at Christmas.
The performance was beautiful as always.
Santa and Mrs. Claus at the American pavilion.
At Germany with the live Nutcracker.
Emily's favorite storyteller was Helga from Germany. She did such a great job talking about their Christmas customs. She told us about how the Germans created the first advent calendar, the story of Martin Luther and the first Christmas tree and the famous story of the Nutcracker that comes to life.
A few days later we went to Hollywood Studios to see the famous Osbourne Family Christmas lights.
Spending time at Nana and Papa's house before Christmas.
The poor fella got sick a few days before Christmas with a fever and upset stomach. Thankfully, he was better by the next day and no one else got sick.
