Everything took place in my grandmas house. I was happy too se my family again and it was the first time we would have Christmas at my grandmas house. When we got to the front of my grandmas door, my heart was pounding because I was so happy I could be with my family. My little cousin opened the door and took my hand to see all the presents we had under the tree. I could see from his face he was really exited! After I said hi to everyone I helped my grandma put the dinner on the counter so everyone could serve the portions they wanted. There was turkey, rice, and a salad. It was delicious!
My family and I gathered in the living room and we sat down so we could hand out the presents. I started calling all the names, my cousin would give out the presents, and my little cousin would wait impatiently to hear his name get called out so he could open his presents. At the end I got about 7-9 presents and I was really happy to receive presents but I was happier because I could be with my family. My 2 cousins were waiting anxiously for Santa. My little cousin was inside waiting with his mom and the other one was setting everything outside of the apartment for Santa and his reindeer. When Santa left the bag filled with presents on the front door my cousin took the bag to the living room screaming while my little cousin was trying to catch up to her. That was how my Christmas ended.
