The Beginning of a Big Project

Katie decided she wanted to make the building project that Garyldine gave her for Christmas, and she enlisted Jennifer's help for it.

All of these tiny pieces would turn into a decoration for my bookshelf. We had no idea what we were getting into! It would be the beginning of a very hard project that would take a week to finish.

Katie, the Hero

All of the cats look at Katie like a hero when she gets out the feather wand.

I like to be extra tall when I get the feather out.

Getting Closer

We got the cats a Christmas present, and all four cats were very interested in it. It forced the cats to get a little closer.

It was fun to watch the cats get closer and closer!

Katie's Favorite Gift to Give

Katie and Jennifer play Animal Crossing together, and Katie has always enjoyed that Jennifer gets excited by the Orchid Mantis. When Katie found the stuffed animal of the preying mantis, she knew she had to get it for Jennifer as a joke.

This is what made me most excited for Christmas!

Some Favorite Gifts

Katie is always very happy about any gift she receives.

I got these cute earmuffs and...

...this building set from Garyldine, Jim, and Aunt Jody.

I got a gift card from Uncle Jeff, Aunt Grace, Ian, and Eva, and...

...a 3-D pen from Aunt Debby! Thank you for the gifts!

Time to See the Gifts

After Jennifer got to the house, Katie checked out her gifts.

It's always fun to get a first glance!

I was excited about this Japanese building set!

A Snapchat Christmas

While we waited for Jennifer to arrive on Christmas morning, we pulled out Snapchat.
