Noah woke up at 5:30 after sleeping with us in bed. He toddled out to find a delightful array of cardboard building blocks. Then we went to have breakfast and now he is napping. We won't open gifts til later, which is good because I have to wrap one for mom and dad and one for alibelle.
I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Merry Christmas!
I think I've established a pattern that to have mind-blowingly good sex, I need to have an extensive dry spell beforehand. Christmas Eve was not celebrated in the usual way, but I'm all for starting a new tradition given how much fun it was.

“Not dead yet!”
I told the kids if they got us up before 8, I was sending their presents back.
They waited until 7:59. I gave 'em a pass for that one.
Scrappy, that is just the sweetest thing I've heard in a long time. Happy Christmas, Thursday, Chanukkah, solstice, holiday of choice, Buffistae.
Y'all rock like rocking things.

Merry Christmas!!!!!
My family called at 7 to make up for the fact that my niece and nephew can't jump on me to wake me up for Christmas as per usual. Also, I had a present with instructions to open first thing--it turned out to be a filled stocking! Sometimes my sister is really just awesome.
Wait, WTF, thunder? I thought that didn't happen here!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Merry Christmas!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Merry Krimble and a Joyous Thursday to all the wonderful Buffistas. Knowing you all is a gift each and every day.

I'm already looking at store online for an artificial tree. I think mac and I will be out early to try and get a bargain on one. Unless I find a great deal with cheap shipping online. If anyone has a rec for a store or brand, let me know.

Merry Christmas/Chanukah/Solstice to everyone!!
msbelle, I got my fake tree at Michaels the day after Christmas for half-off. I found out the following year when I opened it that it had been used before it was returned (remnants of blue garland in the box), but it's a perfectly fine tree.
I'm doing laundry right now, but should be done in time to get to Dad's by 2:30 or so. Dinner isn't until 5:00, so my sleeping in wasn't a disaster.
