IT'S CHRISTMAS EVE, AND...
YOU'RE SPECIAL, 'CAUSE SANTA'S GONNA VISIT TONIGHT,
BEFORE HE GETS BUSY AND GIVES ALL THE CHILDREN
ACROSS THE WORLD TOYS.
GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE WANT TO AVOID RISKS OF INFECTIONS
AND LARGE CROWDS,
WE CAN'T GO TO THE MALL TO SEE SANTA THIS YEAR,
AND HOW CAN I MISS THE KIDS MEETING SANTA
AT THEIR FIRST CHRISTMAS HERE WITH US?
SO, I ASKED MY DAD IF HE WOULD BE WILLING TO PLAY SANTA,
AND HE SAID YES.
OH, SOMEBODY'S HERE. WHO'S HERE?
SOMEONE AT THE DOOR?
LET ME GO CHECK.
Judy: WELL, HI.
HI, SANTA. COME ON IN.
HO! HO! HO!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
HO! HO! HO! THERE THEY ARE!
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
HO! HO! HO! WILL, YOU BEEN A GOOD BOY?
Bill: HEY!
YOU WANT TO SEE SANTA? YEAH? OKAY.
YOU BEEN A GOOD BOY? YEAH.
[ LAUGHS ] OH!
[ LAUGHTER ]
WOW! WILL, WHO'S THAT? WHAT A GOOD BOY YOU ARE.
ZOEY.
IS THAT YOUR SISTER? YEAH.
HAS SHE BEEN A GOOD GIRL?
NO. [ LAUGHS ]
NO?
WHO'S THAT? SAY, "HI, SANTA."
YOU WANT TO SEE SANTA?
WANT TO SEE SANTA?
[ CRYING ] NO?
OKAY.
HO! HO! HO!
IT'S SANTA.
OKAY, SHE'LL WARM UP TO YOU, SANTA.
Bill: FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD,
SANTA CAN BE WELL RECEIVED
OR NOT SO WELL RECEIVED DEPENDING ON THE CHILD.
ZOEY'S NOT THE KIND OF PERSON
THAT TYPICALLY TAKES TO STRANGERS.
COME SIT ON SANTA'S LAP. WE'LL GET WILL A TOY.
THERE WE GO. WHAT A GOOD BOY.
SO, YOU'VE BEEN GOOD TO YOUR SISTER?
YES?
HAVE YOU BEEN GOOD FOR MOMMY AND DADDY?
YEAH.
OH, LET'S FIND A TOY HERE.
OH, WHAT HAVE WE GOT HERE?
OH! A TOY. A PRESENT FOR A GOOD BOY.
WOW. WOW.
Bill: WILL GETS THAT SANTA'S THIS BIG GUY
THAT YOU SIT ON HIS LAP
AND HE SEEMS JOLLY AND HE GIVES YOU TOYS,
THAT HE'S NOT A STRANGER.
HERE, I WANT TO GET A PICTURE WITH ZOEY, IF I CAN.
MIGHT BE A CRYING PICTURE.
YEAH, WELL, YOU KNOW.
[ LAUGHTER ]
Santa: OH, MY.
[ WAILING ]
YOU WANT A PRESENT, ZOEY?
I'M RIGHT HERE. AWW.
Jen: AW, ZOEY, IT'S OKAY, SWEETIE.
IT'S SANTA!
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GET A QUICK PICTURE.
HURRY. OKAY.
OH, BOY. THERE WE GO.
Bill: IT'S NICE TO BE ABLE
TO TAKE A NICE PICTURE OF YOUR CHILD SCREAMING IN TERROR
AND THEN SHARE IT WITH YOUR LOVED ONES AROUND THE GLOBE.
IT'S A PARENT'S RITE OF PASSAGE.
ALL RIGHT, WE GOT SOME GOOD ONES.
HO! HO! HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS.
IT'S OKAY.
I HAVE SO MANY FRIENDS OF MINE
WHOSE KIDS BETWEEN 1 AND 2 YEARS OF AGE,
THEY HAVE PICTURES ON SANTA'S LAP AT THE HOLIDAYS,
SCREAMING, CRYING, AND YEP, WE HAVE ONE NOW, TOO.
I GOT YOU. HERE WE GO.
TURNS OUT SHE'S SCARED OF SANTA.
IT'S OKAY. SORRY, SANTA.
TREE TIME. [ GRUNTS ]
IS THAT BIG TREE OR LITTLE TREE?
THIS IS THE LITTLE TREE.
THE FUN TREE, THE KIDS' TREE.
WE HAVE A COUPLE OF TREES IN THE HOUSE.
WE'VE GOT THE BIG TREE, THE FORMAL ONE
THAT SANTA PUTS ALL OF HIS TOYS AROUND.
AND THEN WE HAVE A LITTLE TREE IN THE HALLWAY EACH YEAR,
AND THE KIDS GET TO BE REALLY INVOLVED IN THAT.
Bill: I FOUND SOME LIGHTS IN THE GARAGE
THAT I'D LIKE TO TRY AND PUT ON THE SMALL TREE.
-WHY? -JUST BECAUSE.
-THE OTHERS NOT WORKING? -NO, NO. THEY'RE WORKING.
NO, WE'RE NOT DOING MORE LIGHTS.
HEY, HEY, HEY. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT.
I DO. IT'S TOO MUCH.
TELL DADDY TO PLEASE STOP SO MOMMY CAN PUT UP OUR GARLAND.
WILLIAM.
WILLIAM, WHO'S THE BETTER DECORATOR?
MOMMY OR DADDY?
-CAREFUL. CAREFUL. -US? GIVE ME FIVE. OKAY.
I SHOULD CHECK TO SEE IF THEY WORK, FIRST.
AW, SHUCKS.
WAIT. NO, NO. THEY MIGHT TURN ON.
-WHOMP, WHOMP, WHOMP. -YOU HAVE A BAD ATTITUDE.
I'M VERY SAD FOR YOU, BUT MOVE THOSE OUT.
JEN WON THE BATTLE BY DEFAULT, THOUGH.
THOSE LIGHTS DIDN'T GET ON THE TREE
BECAUSE THEY WERE A FIRE HAZARD,
AND BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY ARE IN POOR TASTE.
BUT THAT'S -- THAT'S MUCH MORE SECONDARY.
I LOVE YOU, BUT NO.
I KNOW THAT BILL KNOWS THAT THOSE RETRO LIGHTS
WERE NOT GOING ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE,
BUT HE LIKES TO MESS WITH ME BECAUSE HE KNOWS I'M SO TYPE-A
WHEN IT COMES TO DECORATING.
I WILL GIVE YOU THE ORNAMENTS,
AND YOU GUYS CAN PUT THEM ON THE TREE.
HO, HO, HO. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
IT'S A VERY SPECIAL NIGHT.
Bill: DECORATING A TREE IS PROBABLY
THE QUINTESSENTIAL CHRISTMAS THING TO DO,
AND I DON'T KNOW, FOR US IT'S ABOUT BEING TOGETHER.
IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT WE LOOK FORWARD TO EVERY YEAR,
THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING SINCE WE'VE BECOME A FAMILY.
LOOK AT THAT FUNNY SANTA. I LIKE HIM.
HE'S CUTE. OKAY. THANK YOU, ZOEY.
ALL RIGHT. SO THAT ONE BROKE.
ZOEY? THAT ONE? YOU WANT THAT ONE?
DOES IT HAVE A HOOK, WILL?
Jen: THE HOLIDAYS, WHICH IS OFTEN SEEN AS A TIME OF GETTING,
RIGHT, EXCHANGING PRESENTS AND GETTING PRESENTS,
I THINK IT'S EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THIS TIME OF YEAR
TO EMPHASIZE THE GIVING PART,
BECAUSE THAT'S TRULY WHAT MAKES THE HOLIDAY SPECIAL.
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE HERE.
WHOA. OH, MY GOODNESS.
-MM-HMM. -IT'S GONNA BE A FUN WEEKEND.
OH, MY.
THERE'S A LOT OF SNOW OUT HERE,
AND IT'S A LITTLE CHILLY.
-WILL, GO CHECK IT OUT. -YAY!
Kate: GO JUMP IN IT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
WILL WAS KIND OF HEAD-FIRST,
AND ZOEY HAS A MEASURE OF CAUTION.
WILL THROWS CAUTION TO THE WIND AND JUMPS RIGHT IN.
I'M STUCK IN HERE FOREVER!
Bill: WHAT? WHAT DO YOU WANT HELP WITH?
AND THEN THEY WERE BOTH HIP-DEEP
AND RUNNING AROUND IN THE SNOW.
WHERE IS ZOEY GOING? -I DON'T KNOW.
-BLAZING HER OWN TRAIL. -IS THAT IT?
[ GRUNTS ]
Kate: YEAH.
WHOO!
AAH!
Bill: IT'S A FUNNY THING.
FOR MOST OF YOUR CHILDHOOD, YOU'RE TOLD,
"DON'T PICK UP STUFF AND THROW IT AT OTHER PEOPLE,"
BUT WHEN IT'S SNOW, IT'S ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE EXACT OPPOSITE.
NO!
-DID YOU GET... -AAH! SHE GOT YOU!
MOMMY IS SICK.
-MOMMY IS SICK, HUH? -OH, MAN.
OKAY. LET'S GO. GOOD PLAN.
