Previously on Stargate SG-1
"Hello little missy" A man said as he walked over to her.
"Hello" Rose replied.
"Where are your parents?"
"Right…" Rose said looking around, and then she looked up at the man. "I don't know!" she wailed.
"Don't worry I'll help you find them"
"Thank you kind sir"
"Don't mention it," the man said as he took her hand. "Were your parents buyinga Christmas tree?"
"Yes" Rose replied.
"Ok, come on"
And now the continuation...
----
"I don't see her" Sam said.
"She's got to be around her somewhere"
"DAD! MOMMY!" Noah shouted then pointed to a man holding Rose's hand walking towards them.
"MOMMY! DADDY!" Rose shouted as soon as she saw them. "Thank you mister!"
The man smiled. "You go have fun, and don't get lost ok?"
"Bye!"
"Thank you!" Sam and Jack called to the man.
Hesmiled and walked away.
"Rose!" Sam began.
"I'm really sorry mommy, Noah was chasing me!" Rose said pointing at Noah.
"It doesn't matter, don't run off like that next time, ok?"
"Ok."
"Come on, let's get that tree!" Jack said.
----
"Well, here we are!" Jack said as he walked into the room with two big bowls filled with plain popcorn, Sam smiled and took a bowl away from him, she picked up her needle and thread, then started stringing them on, then handed Jack a needle and thread.
"What are you doing mommy?" Noah asked as he snuck some popcorn out of the bowl.
"Stringing popcorn onto a piece of thread, then we'll hang it on the tree" Sam said as she handed him one. "Here, just don't poke yourself ok?"
"Ok" Noah said as he picked up a piece of popcorn then poked it through the needle.
"What about me mommy?" Rose asked.
"Here"
"Thank you"
"Please don't poke yourself" Jack said as he tied the end of the tread. "Sam this string is short" he headed to the bare Christmas tree and put the popcorn string on. "You guys finish stringing up popcorn, I'll put the Christmas lights on the tree"
"Can I help?" Noah asked.
"Sure" Jack said, he picked up a package of colored lights.
----
"That's all" Rose said as she took a step back and looked at the Christmas tree, covered in popcorn, lights, candy canes and ornaments. Everyone else took a step back and looked at it.
"Just a minute!" Jack said as he turned off the lights, which left the Christmas tree glowing.
"It's pretty" Sam commented.
"Good job everyone!" Noah shouted happily.
"You did good too." Jack said affectionally rubbing his head.
"You two should go to bed." Sam said.
"Last one there is a rotten egg!" Noah shouted and they ran down the hall.
"That'll be you!" Rose shouted.
Jack turned to Sam and hugged her. "Come on, let's go wrap up some presents"
Sam nodded.

It was a week until Christmas, and the O'Neill family had spent a lot of time outside building snow forts and having snowball fights, then came inside and told stories while sipping hot cocoa next to the fireplace. Tonight they were all going Christmas light looking with Janet, Cassie and Daniel. Teal'c went to spend the holidays with family,he was going to be a grandfather soon, and he was 'calmly' excited about it.
"Come on Rose! We're going to be late!" Noah shouted, Rose had insisted on buttoning up her own jacket.
"No we won't," Rose insisted, "Mommy!"
"Need help?" Sam asked as she walked into the room.
"No" Rose replied. "Do we have the hot chocolate?" she asked with a smile.
Sam grinned. "Yes"
"Good!" Rose said with a huge grin on her face. "All done!" she buttoned up the last button and put on her gloves. "Lets go!"
----
"That's a pretty one!" Noah shouted as he pointed to a house covered in lights.
"Yeah! The prettiest one yet!" Rose said.
Noah nodded in agreement.
"Ok, I think I have seen enough Christmas lights to last me until next year" Sam said.
"Ok" Jack said as he turned the truck around.
"Aww, daddy one more house?" Noah begged.
"You'll see some on the way home son" Jack said.
"Ok" Noah said as he sank back into his car seat.
"That's a nice one!" Rose cried a minute later. "The best one I have ever seen!"
Jack smiled as he pulled the truck into the driveway. "I'm glad you think so" he said as he took the keys of the engine, and stepped of the truck. He had decorated the front yard in colorful lights, they had purchased some reindeer for their yard, but Noah and Rose had tried to ride them, and accidentally broke them.
"Thanks for the ride" Cassie said as she got out of the truck. "Mom likes her alone time with Daniel" she said waggling her eyebrows.
Sam smiled. "I bet she does"
"Cassie, come on!" Janet called from Daniels car.
"Coming mom! Thanks!" Cassie said then hurried out of the truck and went to Daniels car.
"Bye Cassie!" The O'Neill family shouted.

Noah took a big box of markers, crayons, glitter, coloring pencils, paper and scissors. He gently sat it on the kitchen table, and opened it. He didn't want to wake up anyone, he pulled out a big piece of paper and squirted a bunch of glitter on it, he picked up a big green marker and wrote Mary Christmas on it.
"Noah!" Sam cried as she walked into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, she looked down at the globs of glitter on the table and floor, Noah was also covered in glitter.
"I was making Christmas cards."
"While making a disaster" Sam said as she walked over to him and gave him a hug.
"Sorry mommy." Noah said as he looked down at his white shirt. "I'll clean it up"
"Don't worry about it" Sam said as she walked over to the sink and grabbed a washcloth and got it wet.
"No, mommy! I made the mess I should clean it up" Noah said as he took the washcloth away from her.
Sam smiled. "Ok" she said as she walked over to the counter to make herself some coffee.
"All done!" Noah said as he quickly left the room and put the washcloth in the hamper, then came back into the kitchen and picked up one of his cards. "Look mommy! Do you like it?"
Sam looked down at the card. "Yes, but this kind of merry is spelled. M-E-R-R-Y" Sam said.
"I know"
"If you know then why did you spell it as M-A-R-Y?" she asked curiously.
"Because last year Rose and I spelled it that way and mommy and daddy thought it was cute" Noah replied.
Sam stood there for a second, to be honest, she was jealous of the alternate Sam and Jack, they had gotten to see them grow up, and everything. "It is cute" Sam said as she rubbed his head.
"Mommy?"
"Yes Noah?"
"I miss my old mommy and daddy" Noah said quietly. "I mean I love you, but I miss them." Noah said.
Sam leaned over and gave him a hug. "I'm sorry."
"It's not your faul.t" Noah said. "God wanted daddy and mommy to be with their parents"
Sam smiled and smoothed his hair.
"I'm going to go put my stuff away." Noah said.
"Ok, you hungry?"
"No"
"Ok"
"I am!" Rose said as she skipped into the room and gave Sam a hug. "Morning mommy!"
"Hey sweetie"
"Can I have some fruit loops?" Rose asked. "Please?"
"Sure, they're in the pantry"
"Thanks!" Rose said as she skipped to the pantry. "Morning Noah"
"Hey Rose." Noah said as he closed the lid to the tote of supplies.

Jack sat up in his bed, he heard voices in the kitchen, he figured that it must be Sam and the kids. Jack rubbed his head, he still hadn't figured out what he should get Sam yet, he only had about a week to find something, but what? He stood up and went into the bathroom and took a nice hot shower, just then he got an idea. "Of course!" he muttered to himself, and quickly got out and got changed.
----
"Where you going?" Sam asked as Jack picked up the car keys.
"Christmas time is not the time for asking questions." Jack said as he gave her a quick kiss, then hurried out of the house.
"Ok…" Sam muttered.
----
Christmas morning...
Noah ran into Rose's bedroom, she was sleeping, he rushed over to the bed with a huge smile on his face. "Rose! It's Christmas morning!"
Rose smiled and opened her eyes. "Last one there is a rotten egg!" she shouted as she jumped out of the covers of her bed, and out the door with Noah right behind, they raced down the hall giggling, they ran into the living room where Jack and Sam were sitting on the couch both holding coffee mugs, there was a fire going in the fireplace.
"Merry Christmas!" Sam and Jack said together.
Noah and Rose ran and gave them each a hug. "Merry Christmas!"
"Why don't you open your stockings?" Sam suggested.
Jack smiled and took the stockings down from the wall. "Here you guys go" Noah and Rose had their stockings empty in no time, them immediately began working on the presents, the sound of children screaming and paper being torn filled the house for an hour.
"Mommy, this one's for you" Noah said as he read the tag.
Carter looked at the box, she took it from Noah. "From Jack…" she said as she read the tag, and glanced up to him, then started tearing the paper that said 'Sam' on it away, Sam looked down at the box she had in her lap, it was a brand new laptop! "Jack!" Sam said as she put it aside and gave him a huge hug.
"Well, the kids need a old laptop someday right?"
"RIGHT!" Noah and Rose shouted.
"Thank you" Sam said as she sat back down and began working on her new, 'really' cool laptop.
"You're welcome" Jack said with a smile on his face.
----
Acouple weeks later...
Sam and Noah were in their car, they had just finished grocery shopping and were heading home. "Oh shoot!" Sam muttered.
"What's the matter mommy?" Noah asked.
Sam turned the car around. "I forgot something"
"What?"
"Umm, it's a girl thing" Sam said she pulled into the parking lot. "I'll be right back, ok?" she said as she picked up her purse, Noah nodded and Sam hurried into the store. Noah sat there tapping his fingers on the door rest thing, when all the sudden the door opened and someone put their hand over his mouth, Noah tried to scream and failed, the person wore a black ski mask.
"Shut up kid" he said as he pointed a gun to his head. "Or else" Noah stared at the gun wide-eyed, and the man began to pull him into an unmarked red van and drove away.
Sam walked out a minute later and opened the car door. "Noah?" she called. "NOAH!"
