After the excitement of the puppy we did get the girls calmed down enough to enjoy an early Christmas with GG and Great Papaw. They both arrived within moments of the girls getting Oliver. Here are the girls with their Great Papaw. They both love him so much and were looking forward to his arrival for the whole day before he got there. I love watching them play together. There is nothing like the blessing I feel when I see them enjoying a game together like I did with him as a child. We love you Papaw!!
Kaylee and Campbell were also looking forward to seeing GG since we only get to see her a few times a year. They could not wait to see what she got them either since she always does such a great job. I love my grandmother's sweet, quiet spirit. She is so precious to the girls and laughs on cue at all of their funny stories and performances. Another blessing!
Once we had eaten, opened presents and played a few games it was time for the girls to make sugar cookies with Nana for Santa. They love anything that involves baking and frosting. I can't blame them either. santa was very lucky to get some of these delicious cookies with egg nog.
We also had another Christmas surprise when it started to snow in Waco on Christmas Eve. Campbell had said for weeks that Santa would not come till it snowed. I suppose she came to this conclusion from all the Christmas movies we have watched the past month with snow in them. Imagine our surprise when her wish came true too. Thank you Lord for taking care of the desire of a little girl's heart. It truly made her night even though it did not stick to the ground. She was just happy to feel it coming down and so was Kaylee.
We all went to sleep that night feeling very blessed and looking forward to another beautiful Lord's day filled with the magic of Christmas!
