Twas the night before Christmas and in the Horrell house,Not a creature was stirring, not Erwin, not a mouse
Our stocking were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Starbucks gift cards were waiting in there
Taylor was nestled all snug in her crib
While dreaming of pacifiers and a brand new bib
She wore PJs with snowflakes, on front and on back,
And slept through the night for a really long nap
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
Brian jumped from the bed to see what was the matter
Away to the door he flew like a flash,
Then tripped over Erwin and fell with a crash
And then, in a twinkling, Kelly heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of big noisy hoofs
She knew they weren’t Erwin’s, because he was asleep
He doesn’t get up for the doorbell, or a knock or a beep
Brian found Santa eating a cookie Kelly had made
And a glass of milk with one of her lactaids
Santa spoke not a word but kept eating that cookie
And sent an elf to put the presents under the tree
He ran outside to his sleigh and let out a whistle
Because Kelly forgot to weed the garden, and he stepped on a thistle
But we heard him exclaim and he flew out of sight
“Happy Christmas Horrell Family, have a good night!”
Merry Christmas!
Love,
Brian, Kelly, Taylor and Erwin
