They are the 12 nights before Christmas eve. \u00c2\u00a0The boys put a shoe outside their doors before bedtime and St. Nicholas leaves something in the shoes for the boys before first light. \u00c2\u00a0Last night he left very special gifts&#8230;they both received furry teddy bears&#8230;one brown and one cream. \u00c2\u00a0The oldest had a reply letter from Santa along with his bear. \u00c2\u00a0He won&#8217;t tell us what it says, or what he wrote to Santa about. \u00c2\u00a0Santa knows and that is all that really matters. \u00c2\u00a0We love the magic of Christmas!<\/p>\n<p>The Mr. is going to finish the post&#8230;.I&#8217;m off to make a &#8220;Birthday Breakfast&#8221;&#8230;..love to all!<\/p>\n<p>Well the Broncos won and the Patriots lost\u00c2\u00a0..(yea 49er&#8217;s)meaning we now have the number 2 seed. Tonight we&#8217;re all going to dinner and the birthday boy is bringing Jen. The misses and I made a little progress on shopping yesterday while Aunt B took the boys to the movies. Grandpa Bob and Aunt Robi each sent the oldest $11 for his big day.<\/p>\n<p>I have about 2 hours of calls this morning and then it&#8217;s off to run some errands. Time to run so have a great day and if you&#8217;re going to call the birthday boy, do so between 3 and 4;45 as that&#8217;s when he&#8217;ll be home.<\/p>\n<p>God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our oldest will officially be 11 years old at 3:58 p.m. \u00c2\u00a0Eleven years ago the Mr. had called the time of arrival to be 4:00p.m. \u00c2\u00a0He missed it be only 2 minutes&#8230;.very intuitive. \u00c2\u00a0This is one of my two absolutely &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/?p=1141\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1141","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1141"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1142,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141\/revisions\/1142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1141"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1141"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.2011familymakeover.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
