It's christmas eve, snow is falling. ( or ice in our case ) And your in the christmas spirit. Maybe buying last minute presents and stocking stuffers, singing songs and watching christmas classics. You make it through a day of kids constantly asking "Can we open our presents now!? " Finally it's time for the Christmas Eve service. You get dressed in scratchy, hideous sweaters with pop-up nativity scenes on the front that open when you take your coat off. All of the kids on your pew burn their hands on the candles which leads to crying and picking up the candle wax thats embedded in the carpet. The service is over you drive home and its late and you remember last year. You realize that if the kids go to bed now they will wake up at the wee hours of the morning. (but you do put them to bed anyway) They bug you, and bug you, and bug you, and bug you to let them open presents....... NOW!!! Well its like three in the morning and you do NOT want to get out of those christmas themed flannel sheets you got a target for ten bucks. You finally give in and get out of bed but your not thinking about getting the camera ready, or hurrying, or even putting your glasses on right-side up. Your thinking about next year and how your gonna wear them out christmas eve so they sleep in. Heres my top 5 list of Christmas Eve Time-Killing Thingys.
1. Watch a rrrreeeeaaallllllllllyyyyy loooooong family favorite Christmas movie. Ours is White Christmas.
2. Play simon says.
3. Play a game like monopoly or risk.
