Hey Everyone! Merry Christmas! Sorry it's a little late, I hope everyone had a bunch of fun and got what they wanted..
Well yesterday my mom woke me up at 8:30 to start the incredibly long day. So I then got up and had a shower then after being made to get up they made me sit in the kitchen for over an hour while they cooked breakfast for everyone to reheat when we were done opening presents.
Down in the chairs were snowmobile outfits for my parents with 'Steve' (The plastic skeleton head mom carried around the store while talking to it, and then drove home with it in the windsheild of the car..) on top as if he was a person inside one and a Build-a-Bear Bear in a Batman costume in the other one. Well the Bear was pour moi, Of course! :D
My pain-in-the-ass Dog made me open his stocking before my own as usual.. Yes my dog is spoiled and has his own stocking. My stocking was filled with a bunch of little things, and candies. While in the middle of opening my stocking, my Grandparents, my Aunt pam, Aunt Kim and Colin, showed up for Christmas Breakfast, and to watch us open our gifts:)
My presents consisted of an electronic 20 questions game, Minnie and Mickey PJ's, 2 camosoles, a Stevie Nicks-ish Blouse, a Heffalump Pez dispenser (Lumpy from Pooh¡¦s Heffalump Movie) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, a Vanilla scented basket thing of lotions and bath stuff, Batman ornaments, a Batman light switch cover, a Batman touch light.
Breakfast was awesome I stuffed myself with croissants and bacon. Everyone else add in addition pemeal bacon, and eggs. When everyone was leaving Wilson arrived. :D
My parents then had their fun as the taped Wilson open his gift, which was a box of Kraft Dinner, a cake mix, and certificates for the movies. Can anyone guess what that ment?
I'll tell you... Dinner and a Movie!!
When my parents had their annual Christmas afternoon nap, we watched Four Brothers with my 2 'brothers' (My actual Brother and the neighbour who practically lives at my house) It was a good movie. After that we watched Speed (One of my all time favourate movies.. I'm not sure why though but it is, lol) Not noticing the time, we got a phone call from my Grandma wanting to know where we were because they wanted to have supper at 3 and it was.. at that point I think it was about quarter to 4. So we had to leave, but not before I had to change into the Stevie Nicks Blouse.. Wilson got a good laugh out of that.. And Mom's Christmas tree hat..(For the dirty minded I didn't mean he got a laugh out of me changing, I meant he got a good laugh out of what the shirt looks like. I'm mean it's comfy and everything minus the Frills on the front)
Now comes the incredibly fun part of the day, Dinner with my crazy family..
I got to sit between 2 of my cousins, that at times I really can't stand.. Wait I mean I just can't stand them, Patricia, who's 21 and has the mentality of a 10 year old, and is upset because her 16 year old Boy Toy found himself a girlfriend who's the same age as him, and Cassandra who's 6 months younger than me and always compares our height (This time I'm shorter than her) she also is a compulsive lier and her mother and Patricia believe everything that comes out of her mouth.
Dinner was quieter than usual, I guess that's because drunken Uncle Dave wasn't there.. no whipped cream fight then..
Then came present time. That is after we finally pried my brother and my cousin Jacob from the Nintendo, and Patricia & Cassandra from the computer. Present time was alright, but it made me feel like a little 2 year old getting all sulking because they get nothing to open, Patricia wasn't supposed to be getting anything this year because the family decided that 20 is the cut off line, but I never stopped being told to hand presents to her, I got to open I think a total of 3 and she had 10, that's not including the 3 presents that the 3 of us girls got the same.. or the big surprise one the 5 Grandkids got...
The last presents were very interesting.. They made the 5 of us (Patricia, Jacob, Me, Cassandra, and Matthew) all sit on one side of the room while everyone else squished on the other to take pictures and giggle at us all.. My first thought was that we were getting matching shirts and I told Cassandra and my Brother that if it was I was running out the door, they agreed to go with me if they were.. We were given strick orders to open them at the same time, so we did, when we got them open I looked in my box, and saw a piece of paper in a plaque, and saw what I thought had said 'Inventory' and that made me think of mom's comment from earlier, but it said 'Investment'. I looked at the others and they had the same thing as me.. Now I was thinking it was a practical joke they were playing on us, and the sheet said that we owed $500.00 for Christmas and they transferred it to our grandparents.. We were then told by the giggling camera happy adults to read what it said aloud... I had to read it twice before I realised our grandparents had given each of us $500.00.
The money giving didn't end there.. This time it was the kids turn, they all squised onto the couch. Mom on the arm, Dad beside her, Aunt Pam, then Colin with Aunt Kim on his lap, then Uncle Brad and Aunt Julie sitting in the chair beside him. Dad said it was good that Aunt Tracy and Uncle David weren't there because there wouldn't be any room. They were all given envelopes and told the same thing as us, to open it at the same time. Inside each of the Christmas cards was a cheque for $1,000.00
That was a surprise all the adults had been talking about the Grandkids money for the past month, but they didn't know about themselves..
Anyone do the quick math there as to how much they gave out?
5 x $500.00 + 5 x $1,000.00
Yeah, he spent $7,500.00. That's crazy, since he doesn't like to spend any money.. We figure it's because he thinks he's not going to be around next year..
While we all sat around talking, Cassandra's feet were hidden under wrpping paper, and jacob stepped on her toes and she got mad and hit him in the butt with her plaque thing.. and can you guess what happened then? Yeah the glass broke all over her, Patricia and me.. leading to a bunch of arguements, and her claiming she dropped it..
After all that it was time for dessert, YAY Chocolate Silk Pie :D, while I got to sit in the living room eating my pie, talking to my grandpa, because P&C went back to the computer, and M&J went back to the Nintendo, leaving me on my own.. Which was boring, then after everyone left I fell asleep on the couch for 2 and a half hours, then we went home.
And that was it, I came home and went to bed.
