TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS FUN


Two of our daughters with their 5 children (each) planned a 'Twelve Days of Christmas' for Rock and I (grandma and grandpa). Every night we open one of the twelve presents they gave us from under the tree. We have had so much fun looking forward to opening something every night!




On the 1st day we opened a CD of beautiful Christmas songs that they downloaded for us. My favorite so far is #18 called; Lullaby by Eclipse. I had never heard it before, it made me cry. I downloaded all the songs to my Ipod so I can listen to it while I sew.







On the 2nd Day of Christmas we opened some beautiful ornaments that the kids had made out of salt dough and painted themselves. They are very lovely hanging on our tree now!

On the 3rd day of Christmas we opened all the ingredients to make some FUDGE! HO HO HO! How jolly we will be with our big tummys! But it is our FAVORITE THING about Christmas is the fudge!




On the 4th day of Christmas we opened a beautiful magnet board to hang all our beautiful pictures and important messages on! It now hangs above grandma's desk. Did you notice the picture of the model on it? (She is my oldest granddaughter -who, by the way, hit 4 homeruns this past fall in Softball. )

On the 5th day of Christmas, we opened this darling Frame board! The message says: "We never knew how much love our hearts could hold till someone called us grandma and grandpa" That is so very true! We are so thankful for all 23 little kids that call us that! We love them!!!

These words above the couch were a gift from Sage last mother's day, but before they left, Brooke had it installed on my wall! Look how beautiful it looks on that large space! Right above the circle where we gather as a family to visit!
THANKS KIDS! WE ARE HAVING FUN! I hope everyone else is having this much fun!
we'll post the remaining 7 gifts on Christmas!
