Reindeer Food...

Its our yearly tradition to make 

Reindeer food...

Someday I will be sad when the kids are

too old for this!

While the kids are off playing 

in the other room,

I raid the pantry for random crazy {and stale}

food items,

put them in fancy dishes and call for the kids...

The kids love mixing up the special food...

all while talking about 

where the reindeer will land,

how they will eat the food,

how Santa will get in to bring the gifts...

magical stuff...

I love, love, love listening to them!

Glitter is what makes the 

Reindeer food special.

Its the secret ingredient.

Its helps the reindeer to fly!

Christmas eve,

before the fancy meal at 

Grammie and Papa Wayne's house,

the kids carefully sprinkle all the food outside 

on the snow.

The glitter reflects off the moon

and shows the reindeer where to stop next.

There is nothing quite as magical as 

Childhood...
