    Whenever I hear the kids. I love to see their faces when they see Santa came.

    No specific time...since there are no little ones around anymore I usually just get up when my internal body clock says "Get Up".

    The kids are usually up at like 4am, but we make them wait until at least 7:00. Last year they slept until 7:00 because we were out late. Hope that happens again..they are too tired Christmas night when we have to visit family and then they turn into grumpy bunnies.

    When the kids were little we made them wait till 7 to wake us up.

    Now they are teenagers and since they pretty well know what they're getting, they usually sleep in till at least 10 or 11.

    We are usually up and opening presents with my mom by 8am or earlier. I feel like a "grumpy bunny" by the time we finish our Christmas marathon going from Mom's house to Dad's house, Aunt's house, to Mom's again for dinner with stepfather's family.

    Though I am the youngest child in the house - when we all lived together - my sister would come in and KICK my mattress until I woke up, just so we could go and open presents.

    This year its when I wake naturally

    When I was a kid I always woke everyone up at 5 am to go open presents. Now that I'm an adult I wake my son up at 5 am so that he can open them LOL!
