Synopsis
Granny’s coming for Christmas, and there’s ever so much to do! There are presents to shop for, Christmas goodies to bake, the tree to dig up and decorate and of course, the house is a mess. Will they get everything cleaned up and ready in time? What’s that knock at the door? It couldn’t be Granny already . . . could it? Doing Christmas is a warm and lovely reminder that Christmas needn’t be a perfectly orchestrated affair and that the holiday spirit triumphs over all.
