Meet Elmer. Hes a lovable patchwork elephant I made for Roland. If you’ve read the book, give a lil shout. Its a cute one. It was his gift from santa this year along with a stocking full of goodies.

Heres Elliott’s stocking. We originally had a race car track for him. On christmas eve at about 11 we were finally able to finish the setup to find out that th car’s gears were stripped almost completely. so, we unwrapped some books and added a puppy dog. He was none the wiser. Besides he was most pumped on getting “big boy chapstick” more than anything else anyway.

This is neela’s stocking and proof of santa’s love. My sister and I went swap meet shopping for dress-up items. so the purse was full of shoes (which i am proud to say was Neelas first word) and jewelry for dress up. It was great.
