{Christmas Cards - Santa Pictures - Elf on the Shelf - Five on Friday}

Good morning and Happy Friday!!!! Linking up with Five on Friday!

{One} 

Santa came to Mason's school last week and the pictures are in! When everyone asks him if he told Santa what he wanted he says, "Nah, we didn't talk. We just took a picture and he gave me a candy cane." That kind of makes me sad! Santa is supposed to visit with the kids and talk to them, at least. Especially if you're charging $25 for the picture! ha. Looks like we will be finding us another Santa to visit soon!

Our Christmas cards came in. Due to the crazy Texas weather we weren't able to get out and snap a few decent family pictures in time to have Christmas cards. So, I had to settle for an iPhone picture. They're not too bad.

And again to the crazy Texas weather we are a little behind on our traditions this year. I am only freakin out a lot little. There are only 2 more weekends that the North Pole Express runs and it's raining again today! Hoping we can go tomorrow or Sunday!  Oh, and Nate volunteered to play in a softball tournament tomorrow. I can't be mad, though. It's a benefit tournament for a wonderful cause.

Elf on the Shelf! Are any of you doing it this year? We are going to wait one more year and then try it. I don't think Mason would be too much into it right now. I do have a lot of good ones saved in my Christmas Pinterest board, though! Although, his Nana and uncle have the elf and book and they set up little scenes when he comes to visit. Of course that is not every day, so they only have to come up with a few Elf shenanigans. We went over the other day and Mason's Elf had a message from Santa spelled out in Skittles. Mason got a kick out of it.

 I have a baby nephew on the way! As in he-can-come-any-minute-now on the way. My sister is due a few days after Christmas, but things are looking like they might happen a little sooner. The baby weighed over 7lbs a little over 3 weeks ago. She has a sonogram today where they will check on the baby and his weight and then a dr apt Monday to talk about plans!! Eek. I can't wait to snuggle a new baby. What a wonderful Christmas gift for our family.
