My fondest memory is actually of Christmas Eve night. We all gathered at Grandmas and waited for Santa. The whole family was their. My Parents and their 4 kids. My 2 Aunts their husbands and they each had 2 kids. My Uncle and his Lot of children. I don't know how many he has. It was just a full house. We had dinner, played Christmas music, Santa came and gave us gifts. We traded gifts (we drew names earlier that month). Grandma is passed now and we are all grown. The family did this right up until last year, Grandmas last Christmas.
the presents.always.
Getting this giant telescope one year. A sweet freestyle bike another year. My late Grandmother coming over w/ treats in the morning.
Sneaking downstairs for all the toys when I was small.
PRESENTS AND BEIN WIT MY FAMILY!!!!!
I was five years old and I got a 20 gauge shotgun I was the happiest kid alive (it was my first gun)
I have two; I don't know which is my favorite. The first is one year when we had to move a couple of months before Christmas. My son was really worried that Santa would not be able to find us. On Christmas morning, he came pounding down the stairs. I was standing in the room with the tree, and he was on the other side of the glass French doors leading into it, which were closed. He slammed himself against the doors, saw the presents and shouted at the top of his lungs, "HE CAME!!!" That was great.
The other was a few years later, after my daughter was born. She was two and she'd seen the tree and the decorations and all, but she didn't really understand. We didn't put any presents under the tree until Christmas morning back then, because Santa brought them. Christmas morning, my son came thundering out again, with her following behind, running just because he was. They ran to the tree, and he dived for his presents, but she just stopped dead and stared. We had set up a gigantic Pooh Bear in a child sized chair we had bought, with her other gifts around. She stared, completely transfixed, and didn't move for several seconds. That was a really sweet moment, too.
