We've been watching all day. Got the course mapped out on a huge map. Just left London.

My two daughters are all over the web site. When Santa gets to Florida, that's our leverage to get them to bed. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

And Santa has arrived in Cape Canaveral!

Now it's THAT time: some assembly required. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

One year we bought our daughter a Barbie castle, while we didn't have to put the thing together it came with about a bazillion stickers. It took forever!! Bikes were assembled last night and are hiding in the attic. Just waiting to stuff the stockings.

Argh! The Barbie stuff and the stickers!

Both daughters had birthdays this week (one turned 6, the other 7) so I already did the Barbie Interactive Kitchen AND the Barbie Interactive Vanity. The assembly was fine but the stickers make me whacked!

At least they've outgrown the Little Tikes plastic toys. Those things are so tightly engineered they're nearly impossible to put together. I remember using a heat gun and rubber mallet on the log cabin. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I heard that. Wire cutters are a standard Xmas morning tool along with a retractable razor.

Time to read The Night Before Christmas ...

I don't get it. They have the twist ties and the elastic bands and the tape on the twist ties http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif and then you get the stuff packaged in that thickass plastic sucked and clamped together and the product is in that bubble- and the plastic that is together surrounds it by like 5 inches.... http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif - and then..AND THEN look at how they package lightbulbs. WTF!

Merry Christmas everybody.http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
