Christmas at Home ...


So ... the hub-bub has receded in our house ... the presents are opened ... dinner is cooking ... the parents have rested ...
It's been a full day ... it started at 5am, with Noahkila rising, but not leaving his room (Santa is smart to put stockings in their rooms - it buys extra zzz time for the parents) ... then at 5:24 AM, the sisters arose and the day began ... The opening of gifts didn't happen until 7:20 and by 8:30, mom and dad were wandering back to bed for a snooze ... It's been a good day !!
The three kids got nice presents from Santa and from family and friends ... there were books, toys, clothes and a variety of very cool things ... but what did the girls spend the rest of the day playing with??
AN ENORMOUS BOX that they have decorated with the Christmas Ribbons, Bows and wrapping paper ... so far it has been a car, a house, a spaceship, a boat and an airplane ...
... Next year maybe we'll get Santa to just drop off the recyclables from the North Pole and nail two birds with one stone ... er box !!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!
