Christmas

Hello people's. Today I'm gonna write about my Christmas and Christmas Eve. Here it goes.

The next three days both me and Katie will be writing a blog probably relating towards Christmas. So Beginning on Christmas Eve morning mom made bacon and pancakes. At around noon my mom's parents came over and my grandad played with me and my siblings using styrofoam planes we got at a Christmas party and three of those small footballs with the foam wings on the end. It started snowing when we were outside. Try to tell me that the first snow of the season happening on Christmas Eve isn't a coincidence. After a while we went back inside. Then we sat down down and watched the Polar Express. Then we opened presents from our grandparents to us. I got some tank tops, pajama bottoms, and a nice new robe with a hood. Alex got a fun pack with some gliders a small wooden catapult, and some small plastic dinosaurs to paint. We were going to go see a daughter of my dad's friend but we cancelled due to snow. After two more Christmas specials we read two short Christmas books and the yearly tradition of reading Santa Mouse. After putting out cheese, cookies and milk for Santa and Santa Mouse. Our dinner was pretty early at 3:10 but the food cooked by my mom and grandmother was really good. Finally Alex and I packed in bed. After the inevitable talk and excitement between us was finished we slumbered off. After a dream I woke lazily and went Oh My God I just slept on Christmas Eve I excitedly looked at my clock to find out it was only 4:20 in the morning and slept again until Dad woke us at 7:00 to get up!

In our house you have to stay in your room until they come and get you. I desperately stumbled for my robe and hobbled out into the hallway. One entrance led to the living room where turning right would lead you straight into the sunroom where the presents awaited. Dad said "Okay... Go!" and slowly unblocked the entrance Katie and Alex ran out that way only to find I had taken the other entrance and was already way ahead of them. Katie flew into a jealous rage and Alex's demise was coming so Dad had to hold back the punches of the early Christmas morning race to the presents.

Beating siblings to presents like a boss.



After stockings and presents I had a Playstation 3, six games, six new figures to add to my horror memorabilia, a new card game, a large mass of comics, two horror books, two geeky T shirts Im wearing now, and a bunch of little toys from my stocking. Blogs on those soon. Afterwards we had bagels with salmon, sausage, and muffins for Breakfast. The playstation was half Mom's too who likes to play and she set it up while me and my grandad shoveled the driveway. When we got in my mom and I spent the rest of Christmas day in a glorious game-fest. Finally we opened presents Aunt Robin and her family and mom and dad opened their presents from each other. Dad got a disturbing, floppy, spiky, light up, sticky, squishy, Captain America and mom got a iPad Mini. They were equally happy.

So that's my Christmas everybody! Thanks for the stuff! Have a merry Christmas, a good snow, and a happy New Year!
