Christmas Morning

We had a fun morning.  For some reason I woke up early so I decided to run out and get things set up.  Tree lights on, fire started, coffee made, cats fed, made sure Santa ate some of his cookies, Christmas music turned on, teeth brushed, makeup removed from eyes and reapplied, ummmmm, heaters turned on, milk ready for Bubba, ummmmm, fish fed, ummmmm, what else, what else????  Nothing.  That took all of 4.75 minutes and I was ready to get Christmas started.  It was only 6:56 and I wanted everyone else up.  Apparently my phone read my mind because after another 3.25 minutes the alarm set to Rooster on the loudest volume possible went mad.  And I let it.  Until it turned itself off and.... nothing.  Neither of the boys got up.  So I pulled out the big guns, went into Bubba's room and all but yelled 'SANTA CAME!!!  SANTA WAS HERE!!!  Let's go see what he left you!!!'  I probably sounded like Buddy the Elf but who cares?  I wanted them up!  That worked.  Bubba shot out of bed completely disoriented with one goal in mind - get out of his room and to the tree.  He only hit one door frame on the way and by the time he got to the living room he was wide awake.  Dada came out too, not to miss the fun, and then it all started.  SO MUCH FUN!
