About 9 days ago when I was headed out the door to Josh's therapy, I saw a little tiny red present on our door. I grabbed it and put in in our house without opening it and off we went. Later on we got home and Jordan saw it, so I told him to open it since I had no idea what it was. He opens it and it is a block of wood with a cow on it. I was very flabbergasted at first. What on earth is that for? About an hour later.. it dawned on me! It might be something to do with the 12 days of Christmas or something with the Nativity Scene. So I told Scott we might be getting more. Sure enough.. the next night we had a horse on our doorstep. This has gone on for the last few days, some days we got more than one present, but at least one every night. We had no idea who did it or how they were so sneaky. Scott was sure he could catch them. He would sit in our living room and look out there every 20 min or so. Then all of a sudden there would be another one and he would wonder how he didn't hear or see anyone. Today we recieved the final part of the nativity... the Star. The kids were so excited and LOVED every minute of it. I do know who did it now and I hope they know how much that brightened up our lives. We have been having some rough days lately and it was so fun to get all the presents left in secret. And since they are wooden blocks, the kids can actually touch them. I love it! So here is a couple pictures of our completed Nativity.
And finally, this is Jordan at the Dentist yesterday. We had to take him in for an emergency visit because he had a toothache. He HATES the dentist so I bribed him with a picture on the blog if he wouldn't cry. He ended up not having to have the work done yet, so he was lucky. The Dentist put him on some antibiotics to help the tooth start to get better and get us through Christmas before they do the work. They also gave him some Lortab for pain. Let me tell you... that kid is flying high. Literally!!!
I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!

That was such a fun secret 12 days of Christmas! And it's something everyone will enjoy. I'm glad that Jordan was brave at the dentist because it sounds like he's not done yet. Merry Christmas!!
