Well, I am done with most of it anyway! lol I am the chairperson for the Christmas party and I'm trying to get everything ready in advance. Here are pictures of the grab bags, the reindeer food, and the grinch dust.















20 gift bags, 20 bags of grinch dust, 20 bags of reindeer food down. 20 cupcakes left to go. I'll do them Monday night though. Man I am tired of this stuff!

Everything looks great steph...I have seen the reindeer food but never the grinch dust that is a great idea!!!

I found another cute idea for older kids. Reindeer poop! lol Malted milk balls, and it comes with a poem about how you've been naughty and instead of presents all you are getting is a sack or reindeer poop!

There is a lady on the TTC board that gave me an idea for next year. A magic key for Santa to get in with (for those who don't have chimney's) I would have done it this year if I had heard about it sooner.

Wow - cute pics. Our schools are out now - half a day Friday and they are now on vacation. When is Will's last day?

Awwww... those are GREAT!!! I can't believe you guys are still in school - Austin got out Friday & doesn't go back till after the new year, on Jan 6th. When do you go back to school after the holidays?

[MountainMomma]

We go back on the 6th. I think we start later at the beginning and get out earlier at the end though. At least it's that way compared to WV.

I think our kids go back the 5th. Texas starts mid to late August and gets out in May. When I lived in NY, we started after labor day and went late around Christmas and stayed through June (to make up for some snow days, etc).
