All aboard The Polar Express! This year our elf on the shelf, Snowball, arrived back for the Christmas season riding on the Polar Express.

With Christmas just a few weeks away, our delivery drivers are working extra hard with longer hours. I don’t know about you, but we are getting deliveries every day and multiple times a day. Only down side is that I can’t hide all the packages from the husband when he works from home right now. 2020 has been a different year to say the least and every delivery driver has been working hard all year during this pandemic. More than ever, we wanted to show our appreciation by providing refreshments for the road.
Rain, snow, or shine, these delivery drivers have showed up day after day. Now with the added pandemic, they could be considered front line workers. Without them, many of us wouldn’t have the things we needed this year especially when the whole country was shelter in place or in quarantine. Never been more grateful for toilet paper! Many thanks to them and their families for the work they do and the sacrifices that they made.

It’s no secret that we are obsessed with all things Christmas during this time of year. Growing up I loved the holidays, but once I had my own kids it went to a whole new level. I LIVE for things like this, the over the top, crazy elaborate holiday decor, staying up late thinking of where to put our elf, seeing my kids light up with joy, this is what makes my mommy heart overflow.
