A Very Runkel Christmas

Twas Christmas Morn' at da Runkel House
 
The presents were piled,
and placed all about.
Even a stocking for Chloe, filled with doggy treats tasting like trout. (Haha!)
 Daddy's ornament of the political year,
 and Mommy's delivery that will soon be here.
 (Caption: Jessica 2012 For thinking you were getting a boy.)
 A credit to Christian's hard work and learning,
 and Ellie's costume she was desperately yearning.

 
 An Xbox game of Wipeout for Dad,
 the gun from Great-Gma Thompson didn't make this boy sad.
 A gag gift marshmellow bow made this Daddy smile,
 while Christian finally saw his overflowed stocking pile.
 From a jacket like Vader,
 and shows I'll watch later,
 with sword and gun,
 even Chloe had fun.
Nearing the end, she sticks out her end,
for a twin set,
 and lip gloss that won't blend.
 Captain America, from Santa he asked,
 when Daddy got his AK-47 lighter and having a blast.
 I got a watch ring,
 and Daddy a real crossbow,
 then we came home from Gma Runkel's with a lot in tow.
Home we went for some lunch and some treats,
using funny straws to drink just couldn't be beat.
Till next year, I say, here's my last rhyme-
I love you all dearly, Goodbye, 'til next time!

Between your rhymes, the "fireplace" (LOVE IT), and those straws ... you've got yourself a Dr. Seuss classic!

Happy Runkel Christmas!
