Happy Christmas Eve

We have a tradition in our house - the Christmas Pickle.  We put it up on Christmas Eve and the child who finds it gets a present.  Peanut found it this year, much to Hobbit's chagrin.  Then we followed up with our other tradition - one present on Christmas Eve.  This is normally done just before we leave the house to go look at lights but since it wasn't a toy this year, we did it early.

Hobbit and Peanut, respectively - and respectfully

Now if I could just find out where my little elves have wandered off to, we can start making the cookies for Santa!
