Christmas at the Schofield's

After we had our Christmas at home, we headed over to the Schofield's to enjoy Christmas with them.


Emily loved playing with Ethan's new skateboard!

So did Shelly and Jason

Waiting patiently

Grandpa to the rescue!

Emily playing with Ethan's new mitt

Shelly got a bumble bee pillow pet from Aunt JB and Ethan.

Really funny story: She spent a chunk of the morning trying to figure out what to call her new pet. She ran through names like Stripy and Bumble, and then settled on naming him after his horns (Horny). The adults in the room just got silent, and then everyone tried to suggest other names for the pet... I think Shelly must have caught on that a different name would be better, but didn't catch on as to why. She seemed rather set on the new name, and then finally gave in and called him Bumble. Every adult in the room, in unison, said 'yea, that's a great name!' in some form or other. It was hilarious! Poor Shelly had no real clue why everyone was so interested in the name of her pillow pet...

Jason got a puppy dog

Emily is the excited new owner of a ladybug!

The kids love their new pillow pets!

Ethan got a cool new tool set

He was excited for that! Now he can help Grandpa fix stuff.
