Merry Christmas

Last night before the girls went to bed, they wrote a note for Santa and left him one of their toys under the tree.  We put out a key to let Santa in the house because we don't have a chimney and we wanted to make sure he'd be able to get in.  And then they went to bed without a fight and slept.

This morning when I woke them to tell them Santa had been here, they jumped out of bed and ran into the living room.  When they looked under the tree they found a letter from Santa and the key he used.  The letter said:

To Alex and Ariana,

Thank you for letting me in.  The key you left was very helpful as well as the toys you left under the tree.  They will make some little boy or girl very happy.  I hope you like the presents.

Love, 
Santa  

P.S. Thanks for the cookies and milk

This then caused them to run over to the table where they saw a plate with crumbs and a half eaten cookie.  The glass of milk was completely gone.

Best Christmas Ever!
