IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE TIME FOR THE KIDS! THE REAL CHRISTMAS CHAPTER IS CHAPTER 22! This is so ironic since in LA, we're reading a book on summer... Well, hope you enjoy and I'm in Halloween spirit time right now, so it might be a little bad...

Keanna's POV:

Everyone's at our house again. It's CHRISTMAS EVE! Since our house is the biggest out of the 3, we have the party here today! Landon and Madi FINALLY got together! They're so cute together! So, this is what's going on right now. Landon and Madi are somewhere in the basement watching David, Kayleigh and Jake, Trent and Leah are who knows where, Kyra's with Emily and Emma, all our parents are getting the living room ready and Parker and I, we're just laying in the snow out in the backyard. If you saw us, you'd think we're crazy since it's like below 20 degrees celsius but to us, it's Christmas Eve! Our last day together until school starts again. The Pickett's are going to India to see Aunt Mo's side of family. They see Uncle Scott's sister a lot anyway, Delgado's are going to Mexico, and we are staying in Mesa, we have to go to grandpa's house tomorrow. Aunt Ariel's due in 8 months! Yep, that's what they named her. Ariel. It's such a pretty name, it reminds me of elementary school how Lexi and I were watching Little Mermaid at her house. Aunt Ariel's supposed to be named after grandma's aunt. It's sorta funny. Aunt Ariel's gonna be the only one in the family with either blonde or brown hair. Grandpa told me both dad and Aunt Georgie gets their strawberry blonde hair colour from their mom. Hope she doesn't come back into the picture soon.

"What are you thinking about this time?" my boyfriend asked. Never get tired of saying that.

"It's Christmas! My mind's full of ideas. But my grandma comes into my mind the most." I said sighing.

"Which grandma?" he asked carefully.

"Biological one. We go to grandpa's house tomorrow for Christmas celebration after our tradition of opening gifts and Landon and I rolling in the snow while Emma sits against a tree, David throwing snowballs at Kayleigh and her throwing them back." I said smiling. It's always been our tradition to do that. And then, we get a bad cold. All of us for going outside in our pajamas and staying there for at least 2 hours. Mom and dad hates it when we do that. It just means that the whole winter break, we stay in the stuffy bed rather than the ski trip we usually plan.

"When's Ariel due?" He asked.

"In 8 months. She's supposed to be a summer baby." I said.

"This is gonna be fun seeing you 5 call a baby an aunt." He smirked.

"At least I have an aunt. Or should I say 2." I said.

"I have an aunt, just that she's never around." He said.

"We should get inside. I don't wanna catch a cold a day before the schedule planned it." I said.

Parker's POV:

Christmas, why do I hate the word so much? This is the time where I can't enjoy our winter break and have to watch Emily, Leah and Jake instead. I never get to enjoy my time whether it's Mexico or California or even Spain! That trip was so bad! This time, Aunt Hanna and Uncle Evan has to come. Oh joy! See the sarcasm? It's only because they have 2 little kids and they're always making me babysit so they can do whatever they want. Sounds like bad parents. They are. Ella and May are like Cara Beech, just a little nicer. And by little I mean like 1/10 of a snowflake.

"My time to ask. What are you thinking about?" Keanna asked with a small smirk.

"Mexico. I'm gonna be stuck babysitting again! Mom and dad could care less what we do but Aunt Hanna and Uncle Evan's coming along this time and they always make me babysit Ella and May as if they're gonna get lost or something." I said.

"At least you get to go to Mexico. We're probably gonna cancel everything again from us getting sick!" she said. From what they told me, Aunt Liv and Uncle Wen hates it when they stay in the snow for few hours.

"DINNER!" mom yelled. Everyone probably tried before my mom did. They know how loud she is. Why do you think Emily's the loudest in our family? But seriously, it looks like Leah and Kayleigh's personalities are supposed to be switched around.

After dinner...

Back at our own house. Emily and Leah are doing the sibling project which I'm glad they made this year rather than last year because if it was last year, I would have had to do it with Jake. I think Jake's getting yelled at by mom for doing some... Stuff... Dad's trying to calm mom down, and I'm lying on my bed thinking about the past 4 months. First day of High School for me was great, all the sport coaches were begging me to try out. I remember trying to dodge them to my classes. That turned out fine, just that there's only Hockey to worry about for now, I got the lead in the school play, I got a new girlfriend who's leg is still broken, and we found out about mom and dad's little secret.

I think this chapter made absolutely no sense! Well, that's me for you. The HALLOWEEN ONE-SHOT FOR THIS STORY IS FINALLY FINISHED! But I'm obsessing over Friday right now! WOWP Get Along Little Zombies AND Wizards vs. Everything premieres! I think Get Along Little Zombies already premiered in the states... Oh well, I'm obsessing over the second one since BRIDGET MENDLER'S SUPPOSED TO BE BACK AS JULIET! Enough of my little rambling. I'm pretty sure after that, I'm gonna be obsessing over the day So Random episode 16 premieres. Lexi keeps yelling in my ear it premieres on November 6 in the states and we have to wait like another week for it to premiere up here since that was what it was like with movies and TV shows. FINALLY ENOUGH OF MY RAMBLING! Hope you enjoyed!
