Send a Secret Santa Gift – Advent Calendar Day 9

Celebrating the Everyday  //  

One of our all time favorite things to do is give unexpected gifts! Whether it is something we have DIY’d or a little something that we picked up just because we were thinking about someone special… big or small, giving gifts makes our hearts smile super BIG! So today, we are inviting you to join us in making your own hearts smile super BIG while bringing a smile to someone else’s face too by sending a secret Santa gift to someone special!

Have you ever seen the movie Elf? (If not, go rent it! ;) It is definitely one of our FAVORITE Christmas movies!) At the beginning of the movie they show the elves working super hard to help Santa get the gifts ready for Christmas. They work incredibly hard, but they ALWAYS have a smile on their faces. They never complain… and yes, they get to work with toys (which is super fun), but I think they are always happy because they know that those toys are going to bring a huge smile to someone’s face! There is magic in doing that!

On Friday, Ryan and I were out and about picking up a few things at the store and came across a gift that would be perfect for some special in our lives! ;) This person isn’t necessarily someone who was “on our list” for Christmas… but it was perfect and we knew it would bring a smile to her face, so that was every reason to pick it up and send it as a secret gift from Santa! We became elves for the day… wrapping the gift up all pretty and signing it with love from Secret Santa! ;)

And now our hearts are smiling even bigger in anticipation of knowing that someone we love is going to have an extra big smile super soon! ;)
