Saint Nicholas wrote a letter to Grandma and Grandpa R and said that he was going to be dropping by some gifts before December 6th so we had a party on Sunday celebrating St. Nicholas day a little early. He brought the kids their initial in chocolate. That's alway their favorite. The kids immediately ate them!
St. Nicholas also brought some Minion peeps and some candy bracelets. Tanner's never had a candy bracelet so I had to explain it to him and show him how to eat it. At first he was a little hesitant but then he caught on quickly and loved it!!!
Mom bought some white puffy balls and the kids and mom and dad had a "snowball fight." It was the cutest thing to watch. The kids loved it and had so much fun!
Mom made a wonderful dinner. Then we opened our presents from St. Nicholas. Before everyone left, we brought out the pyramid and had advent. Every grandchild was able to pick a song. I love this tradition!
Saint Nicholas found us all the way in Tremonton. The boys came down and found surprises in their shoes. But we had to wait until the evening when Matt came home from work. Bridger begged me to open just one present but I wouldn't give in. Saint Nicholas brought Tanner "Finding Dory" and a lego digger set. Chase received new pants and some body spray. Bridger received a sports edition of "Spot It" and a Kadama. Matt got a shirt that has Buddy the elf on it saying "smiling is my favorite." Saint Nicholas brought me a cute American Girl outfit. He spoiled us!! He left some Dove peppermint bark chocolates in our shoes. We were so excited to eat them. But when I got back from taking Bridger to school, Sophie had eaten all but three of them which were in the bottom of my shoe. She even ate the tinfoil. We were so mad at her! Luckily she never threw up in the house. Stupid dog!
