My Christmas gathering was crazy, and I celebrate Hanukkah.

I'm Colleen Stoll, daughter of Miranda and Connor Stoll.

I was the oldest one in the group. Here's the list of kids, if my mom didn't tell you:

Zoë Jackson-7
Luke Jackson-13
Jasper Grace-8
Tristan Grace-2
Marie Zhang-7
Emma Zhang-11
Samantha Valdez-7
Leah Valdez-3
Andrew Stoll-8
Annie Stoll-10
Andrea Stoll-7
Colleen Stoll-15
Silena Rodriguez-8
Chris Rodruguez Jr.-12
Bianca di Angelo-Solace-7
Nicole di Angelo-Solace-14

I included myself too, in case you were wondering.

The thing that sucks about still being one of the kids is that I still have to sit at the 'kids table'.

I usually just talk to Nicole during dinner, and the other kids talk loudly and laugh.

Before we even ate some sort of dinner while there, we were all just kind of hanging around.

The parents were talking, the 7 and 8 year olds were playing with random toys, the 10-12 year olds were watching YouTube, the kids under 5 were napping, and Luke, Nicole and I were watching Doctor Who.

I felt uncomfortable sitting in a dress, but looking at Nicole, I knew she did too.

After a couple of hours of hanging out and having little appetizers that were put out, it was time for dinner.

We all sat down at our tables and food was put out.

I was eating normally, until a glob of something hit the back of my head.

"NOT ANOTHER FOOD WAR!" I yell.

But unfortunately, it happens anyways.

As for me, I decided to hide under the table.

It was about 20 minutes long, and I just say under the table.

When I finally came out, everyone was hyper.

To calm down, the parent suggested we open our gifts.

My family gave everyone little menorah Christmas ornaments.

We received what kids would usually get on Christmas.

I guess it was a pretty good Christmas, at least for a my age.

Merry Christmas!

I'm sorry if this was a boring chapter. I'll try to make the next one a bit more interesting.

I might try to make a New Year's Eve chapter as well

"NOT ANOTHER FOOD WAR!" I yell.
