The elves....

Ummmm...something wrong with this picture. Poor Santa...had a fly in his milk...

And the stockings were set on the couch with care....
My grandma Vi made the boys stockings and they are felt, and very fragile and special. We use them every year but there is no stuffing them full or hanging them up while they are heavy. So...instead of hanging by the fire with care...Santa sits them on the couch with care.
whew...all finished up

The helper elves....into the wee of the night...
