They also got a special visit from St. Nicholas who picked up the kids' Christmas lists that were left in their shoes outside. St. Nick brought them santa and snowman Christmas cups, shiny lip gloss, and lots of candy!
Ella got a little creative when she found out that Grandma didn't have any My Little Pony ponies--can you believe, how terrible! So, she made her one. Can you see it? The legs are made out of forks. I thought it was pretty crafty!
The kids even got to see a Christmas parade with their cousins Eliza, Sophia and Maya. It was very cold!!!
They also got to watch Eliza and Sophia's and Joshua's Christmas play. They were really funny. Joshua's play was titled "Christmas at the OK corral" and Joshua was Townsperson #12. He was very proud!!! Unfortunately, since we were out of town, Ella had to miss her Christmas program--I was sad but I don't think she really noticed.
The twins and Maya came down one day to spend the day playing. Luke and Maya became really good friends although Luke kept trying to pull up on Maya which always ended in her falling down. It was funny to watch.
Needless to say, Grandma was very tired after this day!!
Ella and Luke got to ride on all of Papa's tractors, check cows, stay up late and eat lots of Christmas cookies and candy. They didn't miss us a bit!
Looks like an AWESOME Christmas break! One Ella will never forget:)
ReplyDeleteSend me the pics of Maya and Luke in the tub and at the fireplace. Love those!
