Britiana Family 2012 Christmas

Time to Open Presents
Conrad: "Look inside your stockings."

[Kathryn, Noel and Allyson look inside their stockings]

Kathryn: "Amazing, I've got chocolate, earbuds, Olive Garden gift card, bath salts!"

Noel: "Sweet, I got Legos, lots and lots of candy, Hot Wheels cars, a box of crayons, a Bath Time Bubble Blower, Rearview Spy Glasses and changeable silly putty!"

Allyson: "Yay, I got Powerpuff Girls dolls, lollipops, candy, pencils, a Doll Craft Kit, a Pikachu mini-plush, some origami squares, cupcake bandages, temporary tattoos and finger puppets!"

[Michaela reaches into her stocking and finds nothing but big, fat, dirty lumps of coal]

[Michaela reveals a note from Santa that says "Michaela, a certain little elf told me you have been awfully naughty this year. You lacerated your brother Noel, swore, beheaded your mother, ruined her funeral, stole over $25,000 worth of merchandise from the mall and got expelled from 20 schools. Signed, Santa." in cursive]

Michaela: "If Santa comes, I'll kill him!"

[Michaela holds the lump of coal she has received from Santa, frowning]

[Kathryn opens up her presents]

Kathryn: "This is cool, I've got a Spa gift set!"

[Allyson opens up her presents]

Allyson: "Elmo, Dora, Candyland, crayons, puppy toy, Toys R Us."

[Noel opens up his presents]

Noel: "Wow, I got a Diego doll, a Meet the Pajanimals DVD, some candy, a firetruck toy, and a Linny TY Beanie Baby!"

The Missing Presents
[The cousins, Nick, Lance, Bronson, Amy, Eve, Zoe and Abby arrive downstairs to find their presents missing]

Lance: "Uncle Conrad, all our presents are missing."

Bronson: "I think the Grinch took them."

Conrad: "Shall we go see who took them?"

[Michaela opens the presents she took, but but doesn't like them. Disappointed, she re-wraps them, and puts them back under the tree before anybody notices]

Conrad: Maybe you aren't looking hard enough — well, what do you know?

(Conrad sees the presents re-wrapped and returned under the tree)

Conrad: Perhaps they were here after all. They sorta disappeared and reappeared.

(Michaela leaves the parlor and retreats to her room, sulking)

Christmas Dinner
[On the table, we see Saffron-corn mashed potatoes, Classic Flan, chapulas with Chorizo and Spanish-Style Pork Rib Roast with Ran-Roasted Romesco Sauce]
