The Christmas Tooth Fairy

We headed up north last Friday after Zachary got out of school, Shelly got out of work and Troy who was driving from VA Beach to get here so he could follow us up.

We usually stay at the Carriage House when we go home since Shelly's parents have a dog and I wouldn't be able to breath and well....my parents house is way way too small for an additional three guests.  The weather up in northern NY was beautiful Saturday where it was just over 50 degrees.  We spent most of Saturday with my parents and then Sunday with Shelly's.  It's always nice to get back and see everyone.

Zachary and Troy were horseing around when one of Zack's loose teeth came out.  The immediate question was "Will the tooth fairy know where to find me"?  Of course she will was the reply.  This was Saturday when the tooth came out so we left seven dollars under his pillow that night....the next one is worth eight.  Inflation you know.  

Well wouldn't you know we walked out of the hotel Sunday morning and the $$ was still under the pillow.  Not wanting the cleaning lady to think it was a tip Shelly called the front desk.  She told the clerk that the tooth fairy had visitied us overnight but we left the money on the bed.  The clerk thought it was a prank call and almost hung up.  lol  She got the clerk to understand finally and both had a laugh or two.  When Zachary and I came back we asked if there was anything for our room and she pulled out an envelope marked "tooth fairy" and all was good.

We left Monday morning to come back home so Santa would know where to bring our presents.  It's probably the last year Zachary will believe in Santa.

Weren't we blessed with about 4 inches of snow overnight and it comming down about 1+ inches an hour.  From Sandy Creek on there was nothing and at home the grass was green and it was in the 40's.
