Merry Christmas: Take 3 Christmas at Home

Merry Christmas!  Unlike me as a kid my kids don't wake up just as my parents were going to bed. Yes my parents waited until Christmas Eve to wrap presents.  Don't worry we don't do that and we couldn't it just wouldn't get done by the time we get home. We are all tired and ready for bed if we haven't already been sleeping on the way home. 
To some this might come as a shock.  But we don't do Santa, so the presents are wrapped and under the tree before Christmas.  The kids look at them and wonder whats in them; it's almost a form of torture.  Don't worry the kids know not to tell other kids Santa's not real.  They know Mom and Dad buy the presents, unless it's from an Aunt, Uncle, Cousin, or Nani and Papa.  
We spent the day at home for the first time since um Ever for Christmas.  So we leisurely opened presents and then dined on Star Wars Pancakes Villains and Vehicles. Thanks Williams and Sonoma.    
Then later that day. The kids got a special surprise guest for dinner! 
AUNTIE GLITTERBUG!  Came to join us for a candle lit dinner.  Here she is reading with Wiggles.
