3rd Person's Pov
Its Christmas again through the Hale Pack House and its more chatioic then it was before. Everyone was home for the holidays and they waited a bit to long to set up decorations doing it a week before Christmas. The younger ones were figuring out how they will catch Santa and the teens were not excited to be woken up super early but were excited for the presents.
"How many times do I have to tell you do not try to electrocute yourself on purpose." Stiles yells shaking his head at Warrior who was this** close to touching a light bulb on the Christmas lights that wasn't covered.
"But.." Warrior states
"I don't care if you were dared if you do that you will be grounded. And Thomas stop daring Warrior to do dangerous things." Stiles yells at the chaotic duo.
Thomas sighs and says  "yes mom" .
"Good go see if your dad needs help." Stiles said tired of them they sulk outside to see if Derek needs help putting up the lights outside.
The twins, Alison, and Carly were all putting ornaments on the Christmas tree and pretending to use the Tinsel as boas again. Stiles smiled fondly at them from the later putting up garland.

Issac was putting up stocking on the stair rail with Kira handing him the stockings when needed and Scott was putting garland on the rail. Leo, Erica, the triplets, Tara, Mason, Corey, Theo, and Lia were all in the kitchen cooking some holiday goodies and joking around with eachother. Ashley, Myra, Charles, and Katana were upstairs playing with toys not wanting to help and still being a bit young too especially Katana. 

And then you had the Chaos going on outside which was Derek, Ethan, Liam, Jackson, Peter, Malia, Warrior, Thomas, Ethan, and Noah.
"Quite touching the outlet!" Liam yells at Thomas and Warrior
"But we want to make sure the lights work." Warrior states
"Go put up the inflatables Santa, Frosty, Grinch, and Snoppy with Ethan, Peter, and Malia. They need help flating them out." Liam yells at the kids.
They sulk over there.
"Jackson this is our right!" Derek says through gritted teeth.
"It's looks a little uneven." Jackson says while holding the ladder for Derek
"I'll show you uneven!" Derek growls out
"Boys cool it. It looks good Stiles will love it. Now be careful not to fall or staple yourself to the roof." Liam said supervising them because Stiles knew those two doing lights together wasn't going to end well.

Finally after everything was done and all cookies were decorated everyone squeezed into the living room to wacth "A Christmas Story" and just hang out.

Time Skip to Christmas Eve
"You wanna check our plan to catch Santa?" Asked Tara knowing her sister is a mastermind
"Yes I would love to. Now how we caught Santa awhile back was we slept right by the Christmas tree we set up sleeping bags and keep the lightest sleeper by the tree and the other lightest sleeper by the milk and cookies. He made us go back to sleep but we saw him." Warrior says playing into her little sisters plan.
"YOU SAW HIM!" Myra screams
"Yeah it was our most sussecsful mission we pulled off." Warrior says smiling
"Yeah it was awesome." Thomas says
"Will you sleep with us down here to help us?" Ashley asked
"Of course we will. But we call the long part of the couch." Warrior says gesturing to her and Thomas.

Everyone just ends up living in the Hale house on Christmas now well all the kids. Don't have enough beds for the adults but the kids all bunk together in the living room. Including the older ones to keep the little kids entertained.
"Yay!" All the little ones yell
All the parents are just smiling fondly at their kids thinking they raised some pretty good ones. Well most the time ignoring Warrior and Thomas's antics at times.

Time Skip to that night everyone watches "A Snoppy Christmas" (I know this is wrong tittle and I love "The Penuts" but my brain is fried so go with it.) Then the adults set up the kids sleeping bags and gives extra pillows. The older kids leave enough of a line for Santa to get to the tree and then the adults turn on "Home Alone" so the kids can wacth that to go to bed.

It's Christmas now(unlike in my last chapter their are one to many kids so I won't show what they got but I will show some things that are important for my next  chapter.)
Warrior unwraps her present from Tara and it's the dinosaur shower curtain that Tara refused to have in the bathroom.
"You will let me hang it up?" Warrior asked near tears
"Yes I know you love dinosaurs and I know how bummed you were when I said no so I got the one closest to our bathroom." Tara says
Warrior pulls Tara into a hug and keeps saying you are thr best sister ever and nothing will trump this gift.
After everyone gets done unwrapping their presents their is one left under the tree. Addressee to Noah, Carly, and Lia. They open it and inside is the date they will go to court to officially get adopted along with three frames to put a copy of the papers in. And underneath the date paper their is slots to add photos of the day they get adopted. They hug their dad's and discuss what they will wear and who will be their. And then the kids suprised Thiam with one last gift with the help of Mason and Corey asking them to be their God parents and then Thiam is a crying stuttering mess of yes's.
