Grumpy Guy and I were up at the usual hour...but no teenagers. Oh, remember the days when we had to threaten them to keep them from waking us up earlier than 5 am........
So we had our coffee and waited for the children to awaken and tromp downstairs to see what Santa had brought.
They did, shortly after 9am. At least I THINK they were awake.
They didn't stay vertical long.
Note, that "G", the gerbil that was a psychology experiment and now a family pet, is the only thing moving in this photo. Yes, Cruisegran, when you come to visit, "G" will be out of site.
Stocking were emptied of fun contents
Prezzies were opened, revealing lots of nice smelling things..
"Dreaded White Boxes" weren't so dreaded after all...
And I had fun taking photos of everyone!
Trying on new stuff proved for rather interesting ensembles
And a book from a favorite author is always appreciated.
GG stole the camera as the last present of the morning was opened...
And the elves listened.....VERY WELL... to what the Goddess and Tsarina of Maison Cou Rouge really REALLY wanted for Christmas...
A wonderful Christmas morning elapsed into a quiet Christmas afternoon then our friends the Flamingo and Cousin It came for Christmas Supper of Rib Roast, Daddy Rice, and tons of Southern Veggies...
See why we call him Cousin It??
And Flamingo, it's a DAMN good thing I forgot that the camera won't rotate movies, or I would have posted the video of you demonstrating the Cuban Shuffle...........it is hilarious. (and is now in the blackmail vaults).
Girl's BFF came over and crashed with us
Until most everyone went to sleep......
Merry Christmas!!!
