What Elsie woke up to

This is what it looked like when Elsie woke up Christmas morning. She got up at a reasonable hour if i remember correctly, sometime between 7 and 8. 

The problem was she stayed up really late. Will had put her to bed and left her in her room to go to sleep. He then went down stairs to help put the bike together, I was busy elsewhere at this point. Elsie heard her dad and aunt and uncle down stairs so she decided to check it out! I was not there but apparently her aunt saw her standing in the open doorway looking at the bike and yelled "Oh crap" or shoot or something and slammed the door in her face. Elsie ran up the stairs and Will raced after her and asked her what she saw. She whispered "a bike". But she was happy so who really cares anyway! The surprise and excitement of it all kept her up for quite awhile though. Now we have a fun story to tell everyone about Christmas in 2012.
