Jennifer Churcher made these adorable custom toys for her (adorable) granddaughters for Christmas – Timmy T-Rex, Ellie Elephant, Kelsey Keepsake Unicorn and a neon pink Patch Pussycat (a special request). Jennifer posted a video of the girls opening their toys and it was a delight to see how thrilled (and polite!) they were in thanking her for their Christmas presents!
