I feel for you.

Ours asked to go to bed early so Christmas Day would get here sooner. Happy Santa here.  :laugh:

Good luck....

My 9yo & 6 yo old were asleep within 10 minutes but did promise to get up at 1.30am :o :o

Though Santa is lucky  this year as nothing needs to be assembled or constructed in this household for a change.

We've just spent an hour battling with the new basketball stand/ring we got for them.

Luckily they went to bed pretty easily tonight - but they were tired after their 5am practise run this morning!!!!!

Kids up at 6 but got told can't open till 7. At the stroke of 7 "can we open now?" of course they found the fastest clock in the house.
I can still remember running to my parents room with the Christmas booty eager to show them what we got from Santa and the surprised looks my parents use to have. These days it is my turn and I just sit back and smile while watching the looks on the faces of the kids as they open their presents.
It will be gone all too soon.
Number 1 son's (11) face lit up when he opened his leatherman and Number 1 daughter (10) was just going "oh wow I got a..... and Oh wow I got a....."
Anyway time to wish every one a great Christmas day.
Regards

Well not the result i expected. Youngest that sort of NOW believes in santa i think was on the verge of full on bawling "I told him i wanted a castle" "see i told you hes a load of rubbish" the eldest said with a look of sucess on his face. Any how have a great christmas, thoughts go out to the little community of about 200 who is in the line of TC Grant.

6.30 am here, 3 1/2 and 7 year old girls dragged us out of bed. The little little one couldn't believe what messy eaters the raindeer were, they left bits of carrot (Grated) all over the back yard. Santa made a mess of his meal too! The big one just glad their was no raindeer poo anywhere.
