Oysters on the half shell
Learning new vocabulary with Dad while he shucks the oysters
Emergency run to Wal-Mart to get seed for the bird feeders (OMG, bad idea)
The kids open one present - cozy new pajamas and a book for each
Two phone calls between here and Brigham & Women's
Tracking Santa on Norad even though we started putting air quotes around "Santa" three years ago
Watching National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
The next-to-last bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau
Putting all the presents under the tree
Trying to identify contents of said presents
Reading new books in new pajamas by the fire
Stockings hung by the chimney with care
Leaving out a gin and tonic for "Santa"
And to all, a good night.
