Santa's early delivery

Thanksgiving was great. Our family spent the vacation with my sister and family. We ate and then ate and then ate again. We played a few games and did some Karoke too. It is wonderful to have family close by. We left my sisters house Saturday night. When we got home there was a letter taped to our door addressed to the Puhlmans from Santa. Caleb read it and was super excited. Everyone else had fallen asleep so they were not able to enjoy it last night. This is what the letter said:

Dear Puhlmans,

I know you wanted a trampoline but there was no way it would fit into the sleigh along with all the other gifts I had to deliver to the kids around the world. It is just too big and heavy so I decided to deliver it early. Your dad will be able to put it up. It is a bit dirty because I had a hard time making my way to your home with NO snow. But we finally arrived and unloaded it with the help of my elves. It is a very nice trampline with a basketball hoop attached and a netting to go around so no one will fall out. Have a great Christmas and be very very good.

Love Santa and the Elves

Santa is very generous. How thoughtful of him to take our family into consideration by delivering to us early. I love the excitement of Christmas. I love thanksgiving but I think Christmas is my favorite. I like to decorate the tree and the house and this year I am going to "attempt" outside lights. I have never done it before but we will see how that goes. So thank you Santa for a great gift that will be enjoyed by many many kids for many many years. Zach made a special thank you note during Sacrament Meeting today. He put stickers all over a piece of paper and then wrote "Thank You Santa for the trampoline" Love Zach.

Today we are going to get some of our decorations to put up inside the house. We have about three nativities to put up and a few other things. For Family Home Evening we are going to go to a tree farm and cut down a tree and bring it home to decorate. And then MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, I will get up on the ladder and put up some lights.
