So did ours! DH wasn't sure some of my gifts would make it, but here they were on our doorstep this morning. 
Right. It's five o'clock, and the in-laws are coming at 7:30 for gifts and dessert. DH is passed out on the bed feeling awful, poor guy (here's hoping he's better tomorrow!), and I have to finish cleaning the house, assemble the meringue mushrooms, whip the cream, make some custard, set the table, heat the pudding and make us some sort of dinner, while taking care of the baby. The eggs, potato salad, milktart, pumpkin pie, jelly and ambrosia are all done though. Ooh, and I have to fill the brandy snaps! And probably wrap FIL's present, too, DH being out of action.
Ach well, I'll sleep well tonight! Which is good, because I'm embarrassed to admit I still find it hard to sleep on Christmas Eve, and tend to wake up very early.
