Putting up the paper

We are having fun starting new traditions this year. Being at home for the holidays puts a whole new twist on things. We get to initiate our traditions, mostly we are just doing things that we did growing up. One of the fun things that Ray's family did was put up a huge piece of paper on Christmas Eve. Strategically placed to block the doorway leading to the room with the tree. To the kids it was a place to write notes to santa, to the parents a way to keep the kids from peeking. My first year married to Ray I had the honors of running through the paper on Christmas morning. We of course will be doing that this year and Kate is soooooo excited. We bought paper today and started decorating it. Because of the way our stairs are we will have two pieces, one to go under then walk a few steps, then one to break through. I guess we will just keep adding to it until Christmas Eve.
