Elli woke us up at 8:00 to say, "The Santa presents are here." When she opened the Leapster, she said, "Just what I asked for!"
I shopped for some new clothes and wrapped them. Brent wrapped two of them for me. 
Brent got lots of new clothes too. We decided our wardrobes needed a little attention this year:) He also got a drill.
Elli was excited and thankful for the gifts. She hugged Brent in the middle of opening:)
Loved this face. I found this "game" at Once Upon a Child and Elli was a little unsure about it. We have played it several times since then though. It is a learning game though so she doesn't realize she is getting smarter:)Yes, we pretend Santa brings gifts, but I don't think Elli is confused about the real meaning of Christmas. She knows it is Jesus' birthday and that without Him we would have no reason to celebrate. She is thankful for Jesus who was born, lived, died, and rose again to give us salvation from our sin.

So funny that Elli was so excited she just hugged Brent in the middle of opening gifts. It looks like it was a fun morning with her.
