Every year, even the one Lisa spent in Hawaii, the girls and I have a fake Christmas. And it was Wednesday! Yeah! What’s the only thing better than one christmas? Two christmases! And that’s how we roll here in Queens. (okay, not queens)
We started the day way too early and got some cookies and ate breakfast at our favorite place and still had hours until fake Christmas started. I don’t know why you fools start your days so early, you just have all this extra time to waste. Boo getting up early! I just had to sit there and look at the beautifully wrapped presents and yearn to open them.
Then it was finally time and we got to open presents.
Lisa got a game called Dicecabades from Meghan and we immediately busted it open and had a rousing first game. It involved trivia, physical challenges, pictionary and there were dice involved. Meghan had to do push-ups at one point and the girls had to arm wrestle once. In case you are wondering who won, I dominated! Merry Christmas to me!
And, as is the end result of all christmases, we had a graveyard of wrapping paper and ribbons and one tired Lisa.
It was a lovely afternoon/evening of christmas music, games, sugar and presents. Thanks girls for my necklace, socks, sports almanac, 3 new books and all the lovely stocking stuffers. Well done us, this year. Looking forward to second christmas (like second breakfast on Lord of the Rings).
