On the 12th Day of Christmas...

...my true love gave to me12 red roses.

On Christmas Eve, it was the 12th and last gift for the kids to drop of at Terry's. Blaine's favorite part of the whole deal, knock-knock-ditching, had come to an end. (The side story to that is in the beginning, he said, "It is SO cool that we get to knock-knock-ditch for TWELVE days!!) Instead of running away, the 12th day, the kids stayedto reveal themselves.

On the 10th day as we dropped off the gift, there was one already on the porch. The kids came running back to tell us. THey were CONVINCED it was for them. I told them unless there was a card with it, they needed to leave it. It was on a stool, and they argued with me, saying it was on a stool and it had to be for them. Turns out, they were right.

When we went in, all of our presents were lined upin Terry's bay window. She said the kids, the parents, and her boys were always so excited to see what she got. She also said she figured out who we were the SECOND night!! I said, Did Kylee's handwriting give you away? She said she actually didn't know the handwriting. She said she just knew it was Kylee and Blaine and that we were the only people she knew who would do something like that.
We had SUCH a good time doing it, and I think she enjoyed it, too. The kids already have next year all planned out!
