Thanks for all the love last chapter. Its Christmas in almost July. I'll be updating again later this week.
"Are they here yet?" Ashely asks bouncing.
"Your dad and Mario both just texted that they just landed." Whitney tells her young daughter.
"Why couldn't I go with dad?" Ashely asks for the tenth time in the last twenty minutes.
"Because your sister and Santana are bringing a lot of stuff and are getting in late." Whitney says yet again.
"I'm with Ashely; I wish I could have gone too." Gloria says pouting as she sits next to Ashely.
"Well instead of pouting how about we finish decorating." Whitney suggests.
She's just as excited as her daughter and best friend to have her daughter and her wife back home, though she can control her emotions.
"I can't believe they are actually coming home." Gloria sighs not moving.
"We saw them less than three months ago." Whitney says shaking her head.
"You have Ashely to keep you busy, I only ever had Santana." Gloria points out.
"I would think you would be glad to have some peace and quiet." Whitney says chuckling at the thought. "I know I am, Ashely doesn't get into nearly as much trouble."
"You would think, but I honestly miss the trouble." Gloria says sighing.
"They're here!" Ashely shouts some time later.
She jumps up and runs out the door before the two women can even blink.
"Sanny! Britty!"Ashely shouts running into her little sister up and spinning them around.
"Hey munchkin," Santana says ruffling her hair when Brittany puts her down.
"You guys are here." Ashely happily says. "How long are you here for?" she asks pouting as she knows it won't be long enough.
"We're here until the day after Christmas." Brittany says looking over at her wife.
"Can't you stay longer? It's only a week." Ashely pouts.
"Oh no, not the Pierce pout." Santana says closing her eyes and running towards the house.
"Honey watch out-" Brittany starts, but Santana falls over one of the steps before scrabbling into the house. "Ash did you have to do that." she says turning back to her little sister. "I wish we could stay longer, but I have work to do and San has some homework and a project to finish over the break."
"Does that mean I get to spend the whole week with the two of you?" Ashely asks hopeful.
"Yes though you'll probably have to share us with the grown-ups." Brittany says leading her into the house.
"I guess they're leaving us to bring all this stuff into the house." Pierce says looking at the eight bags the girls brought.
"What's new?" Mario says heaving two bags out. "Though I do wonder what is in them."
The two men bring all the bags in the house and up to Brittany's old room. It takes them three trips as the bags are rather heavy. When they're done the two of them join the women downstairs in the living room.
"My babies are home!" Maria shouts hugging her daughter and Brittany tightly.
"We're so glad you two are home for the week." Whitney says giving them a hug afterwards.
Brittany and Santana both enjoy their moms fawning over them asking how they are. Then their dads come down and even more questions are asked. After an hour of catch up both women are exhausted.
"We're both exhausted from the flight." Santana says looking over at her wife who nods. "We're going to head to bed."
"I think we could all use a good night sleep." Maria agrees.
"Just remember we're leaving at eight to go get our tree." Pierce says clapping his hands.
"Yeah!" Brittany shouts so excited that she gets to find the tree with her dad even though it's late for them.
"Are you guys coming too?" Santana asks her parents.
"Of course, the Pierce's have been nice enough to let us stay while you are here." Gloria happily says.
"It's great that we'll be able to be here and not miss out on anything." Mario agrees.
Santana gives both her parents a hug before heading upstairs, happy that they'll be here.
"You guys are the best." Brittany whispers kissing both her parents on the cheek before heading upstairs as well.
"See I told you this was a good idea." Pierce says smugly.
"And I didn't disagree." Whitney says.
Ashely leaves the "grown-ups" and follows her sister upstairs wanting to spend time with her. She just walks straight into their room without knocking.
"Ashely," Brittany shrieks wrapping a blanket around her naked wife.
"It's not like I haven't seen you two naked before." Ashely says sitting on the bed.
"Well it's not like we intended for you to see that." Santana says putting on a robe.
"Are those our presents?" Ashely asks pointing to the two bags that haven't been opened yet.
"Some," Brittany says moving them to the closet with two other bags. "What do you want Ash?" she asks turning back to her sister.
"I wanted to hang out with you." Ashely says pouting as she stares at Santana.
"No, no, no," Santana says turning away.
"Ash, we're tired and are going to sleep. We'll hangout tomorrow okay." Brittany says.
"Okay," Ashely says getting up and head out.
"Night munchkin," Santana says.
"Ready for bed?" Brittany asks moving over to close the door when Ashely leaves.
"Yeah, I really am tired." Santana admits yawning.
"So am I,"

"Okay Pierce and Lopez clan." Pierce says as they pile out of the Pierce's van. "It's tree searching time. We're going to split into two groups to find the tree." he continues. "Britt, me, Gloria and Whitney will be group one while Mario, Santana and Ashely are group two. Remember we are looking for a seven foot, full, Douglas fir."
"Come on San, we need to beat Dad and Britt." Ashely says grapping her hand and pulling her.
"Papi keep up," Santana says to Mario who follows them with the axe.
The three of them head out to the right. Ashely is determined to beat her dad and big sister this year in tree hunting. They win every year always finding the best tree.
"We have to win." Ashely determinedly says.
"And we will right papi." Santana says looking up at her dad who has caught up to them.
"We're going to try hard." Mario says.
Going in the opposite way Pierce and Brittany lead the way not saying anything as they're both focused on finding a tree.
"Wow, they take this seriously." Gloria says as her and Whitney follow them.
"Very," Whitney agrees. "I am glad though to see the girls so happy again."
"I know I was worried when we went to visit them." Gloria agrees. "They seem so happy. So do we have to do anything with this?" she asks.
"No, luckily we have Pierce and Brittany all we have to do is follow them. Normally me and Ashely are having to search ourselves. I like doing this instead." Whitney says.
Pierce and Brittany don't have to talk at all. They both know what the other is doing without saying anything.
"Can you smell a good one yet?" Pierce asks after ten minutes of searching.
"No, I think we need to head into the taller trees." Brittany tells him, moving into the taller trees.
"Are you sure?" Pierce asks even though he trusts his daughter's instincts completely.
"Yep," Brittany says.
Across the tree farm Ashely is ordering Mario and Santana around.
"Follow me, that tree will not win." Ashely says moving pass the tree that Santana and Mario are looking at.
"It's perfect," Santana argues.
"Please that wouldn't pass Brittany's smell test." Ashely argues back.
"Brittany can smell good trees?" Mario asks very confused now.
"Yes," they both say.
"Explain it to him." Ashely says forging ahead to find a tree.
Mario turns to give his full attention to his daughter.
"Britt can smell a good tree from a bad one. Every year she picks the best tree just by the smell of it. It's Britt." Santana tells him.
"Your wife is special." Mario says.
"I know dad."
An hour later they meet up at the barn to compare trees and decide who has the better one. Every year they buy both and donate the losing tree to a family in need.
"We're going to win this year Britt." Ashely says smirking at her older sister.
"Yeah right, I've never lost thanks to my nose." Brittany reminds her.
They each show their tree and Ashely groans. Her older sister's tree is better. There is just something about it that makes it the perfect Christmas tree.
"Good job baby." Santana says giving her wife a kiss.
"I had inspiration this year." Brittany says looking lovingly at her wife.
"Gross," Ashely groans.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Whitney, Pierce, Gloria and Mario all go out to eat while the girls decorate the tree. Pierce had wanted to stay, but was convinced to go out and let it be a surprise when they get back.
"Okay," Santana says looking at the boxes of Christmas decorations in front of her.
There are ten boxes for decorating inside that they get to go through. Outside is already decorated.
"San, Ash will help you put the lights on the tree while I put up the living room decoration." Brittany says taking charge which turns her wife on.
"You're so sexy when you order me around." Santana whispers in her ear, wrapping her arms around her wife.
"Child in the room." Ashely says making a gross face.
"Oh please we weren't doing anything." Santana says rolling her eyes at Ashely.
"That's how it always starts with you two." Ashely points out.
"How do you even know?" Santana asks grunting when Brittany elbows her, trying to get her to stop.
"I've grown up with you two. Mom gave me the talk two years ago when I really started bugging her about seeing you two together." Ashely tells them.
"You saw us?" Santana gasps shocked and blushing.
"Oh god," Brittany gasps turning to hid her face in Santana's shoulder.
"Whatever let's get to decorating." Ashely says rolling her eyes at the pair.
Brittany decides that since she chose the tree she would let Ashely decorate it. Instead she takes on Christmasfing the house. In the living room, she drapes garland everywhere, putting the Santa figures up. The kitchen gets all the Christmas dishware put out and magnets put on the fridge. The train she sets up in the dining room along with more garland.
"We're done," Ashely says having put all their ornaments on the tree after Santana put the lights on.
"So am I," Brittany says standing back to look at everything.
"We did good," Santana says thinking the house now looks like it normally does during Christmas.
Not long after the parents come home and are in awe.
"Now it's Christmas." Pierce announces.
