Favorite Christmas Memory


Do you have a favorite Christmas Memory??? I was thinking mine was when Santa brought me my "Kid Sister" doll. It was the BIGGEST box in the living room. What my parents would do is set up chairs with our names on them. Then Santa could place our presents on each chair. And when I headed down the stairs Christmas morning, there was my chair with a HUGE box! Every Christmas we would play with all our toys in our PJ's. And the image I would always get and remember to this day was this sister Laurie on the couch reading a book. OH how I love Christmas!

One of my favorite Christmas Memory was making a Gingerbread house and grandmothers time. She just made everything so magical. I miss her sooo sooo much. Is this the first christmas without her? I am homesick for her right now. She was always so fun and easy to talk to!!!!!!

We used to go to a neighbors house for breakfast every year.

Patience, I am homesick for her too. I think everyone in our family is feeling the same way. Walking into her house she's seemed to always be in the kitchen making some kind of candy!

Sarah-Remember one time I went to Utah and grandmother took us shopping and bought us dresses that matched? Mine was either green and your blue. Something like that. We got our hair done, nails done and went out to eat. She always spoiled us kids. But she also did give us a lot of her time. I think I need to make sure I have a box of see's Candy out at my house to remind me of granmother. She loved sweets and candy. Oh, Remember the cinnamin sticks that was in the gray marble dish? I would sit there for hours and try and ground it. I miss her so so much!!!!
