Those little trees are very pretty, they are perfect little pine trees. St. Nicholas came to our home to, the boys put out their croc boots by the fireplace (yes in DR) with huge carrots in. We usually put clementines and a two small chocolates. The children were so excited, Sania woke up at 5 to check his boots. Such simple things can be so magical. I'm sure the girls must love their boots. Keep warm, Renee. Sending you and the family lots of holiday blessings.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12637731468344732953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537609822307770052.post-60105036636658332572010-12-07T16:53:54.408-08:002010-12-07T16:53:54.408-08:00That advent calendar just gets cuter and cuter! I ...That advent calendar just gets cuter and cuter! I love it! My girls asked the big question this year (mommy, are you St. Nick?). Good thing I was out of sight at the moment... Then, the other twin said: of course she is not, have you seen the huge footprint outside? I didn't make the footprint... They probably was her dad's when he went to the barn in the morning... I am just amazed at how much they want to believe...!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513911177615259519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537609822307770052.post-77460923163307930572010-12-07T16:05:28.106-08:002010-12-07T16:05:28.106-08:00Very sweet!Very sweet!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13718731023662212448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537609822307770052.post-18543808128161948642010-12-07T10:58:51.529-08:002010-12-07T10:58:51.529-08:00Renee,
