Well... he can't slide down the chimney on a houseboat, but there IS another slide available. (He should probably leave his bag of presents on the sleigh!)

 

It's an age old question that has spanned the millennia:
Where do you hang stockings on a houseboat so Santa will find them?

Well... we checked in with the experts and evaluated these options:

On The Fireplace Mantle:
There is no fireplace on a houseboat. You could, however, bring a fireplace DVD and play the video on the houseboat TV but... (Hanging stockings on that TV just won't do!)

On The Outside Deck Railing:
Good idea, The railing is sturdy enough and there is certainly plenty of room. But that deck location, front or back, is outside! Fish may jump and bite at your stockings, birds may land and peck around, or... a good wind might pop up out of nowhere and blow your stockings into the water. (Not good...)

On The Cabin Doorknobs:
A good idea. Sturdy door knobs will do the trick, but there may not be enough of them and... The noise of filling the stockings up might wake the little ones. Plus... if someone gets up in the middle of the night, they might knock your bright and cheery stockings right off the knobs walking down the hall. (Next!)

On The Kitchen Cabinet Doors:
That's the perfect place. Hang your houseboat stockings on the cabinets
in the kitchen, right over the counter and... the cookies.

(Did you look out the kitchen window over the sink?)

 

On the top deck of course! Where everyone out on the lake can see it! Think about the view when you're in the hot tub! Now that's a picture to share online!

(Did you notice who's out on the water riding a PWC?)

 

And...

Give The Gift:
A Houseboat Vacation

This is the perfect last minute gift and here are a few tips to help you present it with style!

Just right click one of these two houseboat ornament images and then click print.

Cut it out and tape it to the inside of a greeting card. DONE!

Or... hide it somewhere on the tree. Then tell 'em that one of their gifts is on the tree and see if they can find it!

Think summer vacation for more gifts and wrap 'em up together.

How about a day on a PWC?
Who wouldn't flip over a new wake board? Get the point across with a few new beach towels!

Or... consider a good pair of sunglasses for someone who lost theirs in the lake last year.

Good luck!
