Christmas Memories

[kpugh]

Soooooo many good Christmas memories! I just love this time of year!

Every year when we decorate the Christmas tree we have super thick chocolate milkshakes that my Dad makes. Seems silly to have such a cold beverage in the winter, but we enjoy it

Every year I pick one of the uglier ornaments I made as a little kid (although when I was a kid I thought they were pretty ) and I put it somewhere on the front of the tree and see how long it takes my Mom to find it and move it to the back of the tree again.

When my brother and I were little we would always insist on playing our Care Bears Christmas record on Christmas morning while we were opening our presents.

With my very strong and close roots in my German heritage, Christmas is "the holiday season" for us. With our season starting the weekend prior to Thanksgiving through January 6th, it is packed full of special days. Some of my fondest memories are St. Nicholas Day on December 6th, and the greatness of die zweite Weihnachten (Boxing Day/ 2nd Day of Christmas).

.... looking forward to even more xmas memories.
