The elves have always dropped off pajamas on Christmas Eve. Usually right after dinner and just before reading T'was the Night Before Christmas. Magnolia and I heard a little jingle at the front door and sure enough a red sack was left with our name on it and brand new pajamas inside!
Magnolia's stocking was left at the foot of our bed. We had coffee cake and grapefruit in bed while she opened her stocking presents. The sun wasn't even close to rising at this point!
First glimpse of what Santa brought!
A basketball hoop!
A train!
A drum!
A tool bench like daddy's!
Mr. Potato Head!
And many more...Magnolia was worn out and took her place at the table to wait for her breakfast.
Hoping yours was merry too!

I think you already know, that I love fondue :) What a great tradition! I love all of the neat things that you guys do! Especially the elves leaving the pj's in that darling bag! We have always opened new pj's on Christmas Eve, since I was little, but I LOVE your idea!
It looks like you might need a new room for all those cool toys! Magnolia is probably still having a blast, with all of her things!
I hope you guys have a Happy New Year, what a wonderful 2009 it is going to be :)
