The year we took the kids to Disneyland for Christmas Day! Totally magical!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 5, I got a bike from Santa. Best ever.
ReplyDeleteA couple of years ago we took our kids to Disney World over Thanksgiving. It was a wonderful, nontraditional way to spend the holiday.
ReplyDeleteWe love going out to the country for their country Christmas celebration. It's become a wonderful tradition that we look forward to each year.
ReplyDeleteThe year I was 12, got a handheld AM transistor radio (complete with mono ear plug). Goodness, that was a while back!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite memory is my oldest child's second Christmas. She didn't care about the gifts. She played with the wrapping paper and ribbon. I enjoyed that so much!
ReplyDeleteTaking our kids to the snow for the first time!!
ReplyDeleteSpending Christmas Eve at my aunts with all my cousins.
ReplyDeleteMy grandpa playing Santa!

ReplyDeleteThe first Christmas after we were married we cut down our first Christmas Tree.
ReplyDeleteChildhood family Christmases with over 50 of us - these days no one has a house big enough for us all!!
ReplyDeleteI wrote a letter to Father Christmas and had a response but bizarrely it was on some of my notepaper and in my eldest brothers handwriting - makes me smile everytime!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely prize, please count me in.
ReplyDeleteWhen my son was just over a year old we had a Christmas where we managed to get most of my family and my husband's family together. There were over 30 people including about six babies and toddlers. It was chaotic and fun. Now everyone has moved all over the place and it's hard to get a bunch like that together.
ReplyDeleteMy mother made Christmas Eve so special. She would work so hard that day and then had everything perfect for the celebration.
ReplyDeleteThe year my daughter got married (on Christmas Eve!) we had everyone in both families plus all the remaining wedding guests over to our house for Christmas breakfast with the newlywed couple - who of course stayed in town for Christmas morning so they didn't miss out on any gifts that might be coming there way! Over 50 people in my house for breakfast - but what fun!! A great way to celebrate the season!
ReplyDeleteWhen my kids were little the first year my husband was home for Christmas after he had been deployed and missed 5 Christmas's straight. It was just magical having him home with us that Christmas
ReplyDeleteAny time I can spend with the whole family is the best gift.
ReplyDeleteGoing to my grandparents house and having my grandma play piano, my grandpa play the fiddle and my uncle on the guitar. We have a family full of beautiful singers and musicians. We would sing all kinds of Christmas carols and hymns. These truly were Hallmark moments that I treasure to this day. My grandparents have both been gone several years, but those memories are like yesterday. xoxo
ReplyDeleteMy Aunt bringing down our presents early on Christmas Eve with no names on them. We had to wait until nighttime to find out which one was ours. It kept us quite busy while food was being made.
ReplyDeleteWhen our children were little, my husband and I would take them to a tree farm for our Christmas tree. Of course, it took forever for them to choose a tree and my poor husband always got muddy and wet, cutting down the tree, but it was always fun for them.

ReplyDeleteWe love going to the city and see the lights and decoration
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite childhood memories is reading in a chair in my bedroom. The chair was moved into my room to make room for the Christmas tree. I can remember reading late into the night over school break, curled up in that chair, feeling safe and at "home".
ReplyDeletePlaying Santa for younger siblings and then for my own daughter.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 12 I got a new bike. My dad walked two miles to the hardware store in the middle of the night Christmas Eve and rode it home to put in front of the tree Christmas morning. That was the first year that we ever had anything big on Christmas Day. My parents would buy a few things to open on Christmas and then go shop the after Christmas sales for more things. It was sort of like having two Christmas'
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 7 my great grandfather gave me a half gallon milk jug with 1000 pennies in it. It was the best! And one if my favorite Christmas gifts ever!
ReplyDeleteI love the evening before Christmas, when we exchange family gifts. We don't shop off of wishlists and it is really fun to see what everyone chooses for each other!

ReplyDeleteOur youth group took a bus around town and caroled at church members houses! Thanks for the chance!

ReplyDeleteMy grandparents and cousins always came to our house for Christmas and this was wonderful for me as I was an only child. Thinking back I can't imagine how my mother put up with it all
ReplyDeleteMemories of Christmas for me is a long standing tradition of going to the same Christmas tree farm each year. This tree farm has been owned by the same family and is now being run by its 4th generation. I've gone to this tree farm since I was a small child and then after growing up, took my own children there every single year, and now we're taking one of my grandchildren there as well along with my son/her Dad, and my future DIL. I've gone to this same tree farm each Christmas for over 50 years now, aside from a few years which health problems (being in the hospital or just out) prevented us from going.

ReplyDeleteI have few favorite - each one of the kids first site of a Christmas tree and presents! Once when I was a young teen my family had no money for a tree much less presents. My friends came over with a real tree and decorations and we ate cookies someone Grandma had made! It was their spirit of Christmas that made me realize it wasn't about what you got but what to gave! They gave me love that day! Still brings tears!
