Christmas Day

Well we had a great plan...that didn't work. We were tired of getting up first thing Christmas morning. Someone hehem, loves to wake Zack up around 4 am. So we made sure that the tree and presents were not ready until 6. So that hopefully Zack would wake up around 7 and we could have a nice morning. Well all was going as planned we woke up at 4 to get ready as I was heading down stairs, Zack calls my name.(Oh crap!) He asked if Santa had come yet. I said I don't think so let me check. (stuck a few gifts under the tree) I told Zack it must be to early so lets get back to bed so he won't skip our house. So he and I laid in his bed.(while brad worked solo) Then Brad came up to check on us and Zack asked if Dad would lay with us. He did. 5 min later we heard bells ringing. Zack told us to go to sleep! We all pretended to sleep and then when the bells stopped we asked Zack if Dad should go check. He said "NO wait till morning, he could still be here!" maybe 3 min passed and then he wanted Brad to go check. Low and behold there were gifts! We had to go "wake up Brian" to come join in.
Zack got a lot and I really mean a lot of star wars toys. He also got a coloring book, Doodle pad, Indiana Jones lego's for the Wii, Acme Wars for the Wii, clothes, jammies. Way to much as usual. I think I gave away 4 bags of toys, and threw away another 2. So at least we have room for them. I got a beautiful neckless from Zack, two beautiful sweaters and a coat from brad, a gift card from Brian, and a pedicure from my parents, and a Ipod docking station from Cindy. Brad got a new hat from me and Zack, a NY licence plate cover from Zack, clothes a really nice coat from his mom, and some NY and raiders memorabilia from Brian. We got Brian a Digital Camera. I really think he likes it. Brad had a dream about it so that is what we gave him.
Brad and I didn't go crazy on each other this year. We want new interior doors and a Dyson vacuum so we are saving to get them.
We were sick all day I wasn't so bad but Brad and Zack were coughing and had body aches and fevers. So we made sure to not expose every one to it. But eventually made it around to see our families. I got it later and we all have been sick ever since. No fun! But we had a Merry Christmas and hope you and yours did too.
