So I was in the bar last night having a cup of hot cocoa with extra marshmallows (that's what we elves call a "double") and I met an elf who used to work for you. Bubbles...you remember him? Yeah, well he said he had a gig at your house with these "elf bags" that you would put on your girls' doors and he was assigned to put a little treat in them for the girls to find in the morning. Well that sounds like a pretty sweet deal-- they got presents before AND on Christmas?! (not to mention the job security for us elves) I don't know if your girls ever mentioned anything specifically, but they told Bubbles they really appreciated all the great Christmas traditions you and Eddie (is that really his name?) created for them. They have many many happy memories.
But I do have to put you on the naughty list for one thing. Bubbles also said one year when Jodie was home from college and out with her friends that you put a mechanical slow moving Santa in her bedroom while she was gone. It really scared the candy canes out of her when she found it in the dark, moving slowly, with a candle. You really shouldn't use Santa for evil, but I will let this one slide.
A more recent tradition you have is to put up MooMoo in the backyard. All the kids
and grandkids love this one. So to end this little diddy for today, I will post an especially sweet picture of one of many traditions. Until next time.

That MooMoo is much better than what you normally think of when you think of a moo-moo.
