Christmas Day!

I could hear little quiet voices."What is the time?" I thought to myself just as Jayne bounded in full of excitement "Santa's been!!!" She was doing some kind of excited dance on the spot. I looked at the Clock 3:57AM!!!! "Go back to bed!" i groaned closing my eyes. "I don't want to" said miss Jayne, "Who else is up?" i asked her "Darcy" she told me. So i got up and went out to the tree. "What time did you get up?" I asked Darcy " "10 to 4 " He told me with a big smile "Can we open the smallest present?" "No!" i said "But you let us last year" he complained. "yeah but it wasn't 4 o'clock in the morning either" I thought to myself. "Go back to bed" I said to him as i walked slowly back to my bed. "Mum?" he called, " "Yes?" i said as i walked back to the rumpus. "Can i sleep here?" " I smiled and said "Sure" So he got his sleeping bag out and Jayne came out and got hers too. Darcy showed me all the presents and he had put them all into piles according to whose they were. So i went back to bed and was reawakened at 5am by the voices of Darcy,Jayne,Edmund and Lizzie excitedly talking about all the presents they had got from Santa.So i wiped my eyes and got up to see what they were up to. Lizzie jumped up when she seen me"Can i get Daddy up now? please?" "Sure" i said. Our rule is they can't open up any presents until Mummy and Daddy are awake. So i heard her jumping on Daddy and i heard him tickling her back, then he slowly emerged from around the corner to which there was a unison of ripping paper. We didn't even get a chance to get the video camera out. lol. So after all the pressies were opened we had waffles and pancakes with ice cream and maple syrup and fruit juice and the kids were all able to start playing and organizing there gifts and eating there stocking treats. Fitzpatrick went over to his mums after Breakie so he could finish putting in her new Kitchen so it was ready for Christmas. We went over at about 4pm for Christmas dinner, which was so yummy! His mum is a really good cook. Then we just chilled out and the kids played with their Aunt and cousins. I think we headed home about 10pm. Now to enjoy leftovers and treats for the next coming weeks ;)
