I've been trying to do a little shopping every time hubby or I have to go into Fresno. Today, he had a dentist appt so he dropped me at the mall.

I need to spend a day cleaning so we can put our tree up. Sigh ..... I also need to wrap gifts that need to be mailed or delivered.

I'm hoping to finish by this weekend.

Marissa is really excited. She wants to know if Santa's reindeer are going to land on our roof. I told her they would probably land in the driveway since we have no chimney. Then she asked if he would just leave coal if we tried to stay awake and watch him.

Do you think she really believes in Santa at 7? I'm not sure.

Funny, your question, I was just talking with my daughter at bedtime about this. She's older and said kids in her class still believe. So Marissa may still believe. Maybe the kids just like to believe. :)

My daughter figured it out early. She said, Mom why is Santa's wrapping paper the same paper you wrapped Grandma's gift in? LOL :) I guess I wasn't very good at covering it up, she figured it out not long after. In 2nd grade she looked for, found and peeked at the gifts I had hidden. ;)
