Day 24, Christmas Eve!!!
Grammie and Papa Rankin came over to celebrate Christmas. We had dinner together and then exchanged gifts. Smiles for everyone. What a great relaxing evening.
Owen got a Superman suit (which he Loved!), a drum set, a submarine and many many other wonderful gifts. Olivia and Owen were "playing" Christmas Carols. Olivia has become quite a good piano player, and Owen really enjoyed playing the drums! Olivia has to be one of the happiest girls around this Christmas. She received so many wonderful gifts from Grammie Rankin. But her all time favorite is that her Grammie Rankin and Grammie Fenton got her her very own lap top! She is over the moon with excitement.
One really nice thing was that even though the kids were so excited to open gifts, and this year was for certain all about quantity, they were so excited to give the gifts that they got for Grammie. They got her an ice cream maker for her Kitchen Aide mixer and a recipe book.
Owen couldn't wait to see Papa open his ice cream sundae bowls, scooper, and toppings. Olivia got him a muscle car calendar. She said he would love it for his garage.
Great visit with Great Grandma Fox! She is so much fun to be around. She is always making us laugh and smile.
So last year my Grandpa Harold recorded this book for the kids. I love it so much because we will have his voice reading to the kids. What an amazing gift that will give for years to come. Thanks Grandpa!
The milk and cookies are out. The carrots are on the porch. "Second" letters to Santa are done. "T'was the Night Before Christmas has been read. Now it is time for bed!! Good Night little Schoelles children.
