The Christmas Fight


The   Christmas   Fight       12/16/11
                 One   afternoon   in   League   City TX at 2:00 P.M. one   Saturday   in December   
  On  Christmas   eve ,Margaret  and  Kanani  were  looking  under   the  Christmas  tree.  Suddenly   Margaret   said   “Hey   is   it   snowing    outside?”   and to that they  both jumped up and looked out the window and found out they had an early surprise for Christmas. It was actually snowing! All of a sudden the two girls were  jumping up and down screaming, “It’s snowing outside, it’s snowing outside!”    The next thing they knew their mom came in the room carrying the laundry basket and said, “Do not yell that loud in the house, but you may go outside and play in the snow while I do the laundry. You might want to bring the elves out too.”  “Yes,” said Kanani and Margaret together. They ran to the closet and got their coats, scarves, and hats. Then they both ran upstairs to get their elves. When they got up there, Margaret said, “Hi, Merry, Hi Christmas.” I see that you like your cookies. Kanani said to her elves, “Hi Eloise, Hi Jingle, I see that you liked your cookies too.” They grabbed their elves and ran back downstairs and into the snow.
                Five hours later Kanani and Margaret were sitting at the kitchen table drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows in it. Their elves were having some too! Then they all went up the stairs (by all I mean the elves too!)   They packed their bags and Margaret yelled, “We are all packed!” Their mom said, “Okay, come down with your bags and get in the car.” Then they got in the car after they put their bags in the back of the car. When their mom and dad got in the car it started with a “vroom!” and sped off to Kanani and Margaret’s grandma and grandpa’s mansion. When they got to their grandparents Kanani and Margaret ran in the mansion and ran toward their grandma and grandpa after they dropped all of their bags at the doorman’s feet.   Kanani and Margaret gave their grandparents a huge hug and said, “Merry Christmas Nini and Papa.” In seconds Josie the dog started going, “Yap, yap, yap.” After an hour of talking everyone went to bed so Santa could come.
                “Momma, Daddy, wake up!”said Margaret and Kanani while jumping on the bed. Their mom woke up with a startle. Kanani and Margaret went downstairs and opened all of the presents. Margaret’s cousin came. When their cousin got there, Margaret said, “Hi, Madison.”  Then Madison said, “Hi Kanani, Hi Margaret, I got you guys a present.” She handed them a box with a silver top and a red bow. As soon as Margaret and kanani got their hands on it they took it back into the living room and tore the box open. Inside the box there was a snow globe with a snowman inside.
                “Mama, Margaret won’t share the snow globe with me,” yelled Kanani the next day. Kanani and Margaret did this constantly until New Year’s Eve. Their mom said, “I think Madison could help you guys with your problem with the snow globe. Here she is.” “We have to tell you something about the snow globe,” said Kanani to Madison. “What is it?”, asked Madison in a worried voice. “We have trouble sharing the snow globe”, said Margaret. “Well then you guys could have a rock paper scissors game to see who should go first with taking turns” said, Madison. Kanani and Margaret tried that and it worked.
