Getting Ready for Santa

After we got home from Gigi & Bubba's, it was time to prepare for Santa's visit.
wearing the new pajamas Snowflake gave her
Cooper's new pajamas
 cookies for Santa
 they placed food outside for the reindeer
 In Snowflake's letter this morning, he said his powers would be lifted long enough that the kids could touch him and give him a hug.  Reagan was a little hesitant at first.
 Cooper gave Snowflake a big hug!
 Cooper wanted a group photo
 Once the kids were fast asleep, Santa left a few toys for each of them. 
He left Perler Beads, a Orbeez, and a Kindle Fire for Reagan,
 For Cooper, he left Battleship, Heroes of Imaginext toys, and a Kindle Fire
 As a special treat, he left 2 movies for them to share
Can't wait until Christmas morning!
