my favorite Christmas memory is when i was little: the night before Christmas i prayed before i went to sleep that i would get a stuffed animal…and asked God if possibly it could be a dog. the next day when my family and i went to my grandpa’s house for Christmas, i found out that my cousin went shopping for my present that morning. when i opened it, it was a stuffed animal dog! this really effected me because i realized that God answers my prayers in beautiful ways and that He cares for me always. i will never forget that night when God revealed Himself to me, in the wildest way, through a stuffed animal.

Great memory to have and cherish. Thanks for sharing that, Arianna! God works in funny ways sometime!
My favorite Christmas memory was 3 years ago when my friend who owned my horse at the time called me up and said that she sold Abby to someone else (she thought i knew that i was getting abby for christmas, but i didnt) i burst out crying and she panicked and called the caribou store manager and demanded to talk to my mom and dad. she told them everything so they came home and they told me that they bought abby. Then we went out to see her (my friend) and she had pulled tinsel off of her windows and wrapped it around abby’s neck and was standing there waiting for me when we got there. it was super depressing at first, but it turned out very good.

Very cool!
my favorite Christmas memory was when i was about 7 years old. in the basement of my aunt’s house, my sister and cousins and i turned out all the lights making the room pitch black. then one person would hide a small stuffed animal somewhere in the room. (like in almost impossible places to find) then we’d crawl on our hands and knees searching with our hands for the animal, because we couldn’t see anything. it was so much fun.

Neat. A different type of hide and seek! I bet you still play games like that, right?
my favorite christmas memory has got to be when i went to my grandma’s house for christmas, and i had been wanting this like realy cool game and when i got to her house and we were done eating all are awsome food and sort we opened are presents, and i didnt get the game… but the thing was, what i got was even cooler because my grandma had got it. And it made me think about if i even wanted that. Because my it does not mater what you get, its that somebody was thinking of you>:)

Very cool grandma you got there.
One of my favorite Christmas memories is two years ago, when my family went to my Grandma and Grandpa’s house and one of my presents was a big rectangle shape wrapped up. My cousin and I were guessing what it was and we were saying a guitar. When we were opening presents and it was my turn and I opened it up and it was a guitar!

Wow! Can’t beat getting a guitar for Christmas!
One of my favorite christmas memories was when i was little (like 3 or 4) and when i woke up i rushed to the stockings to get the stuff out of them, and i got my head stuck between 2 metal poles on the railing while calling my parents upstairs!!!! It took like an hour to get my head free!!!
My favorite Christmas memory was the Christmas that i got my first phone, I kept telling my parents that i wanted one and the morning that we opened our presents in the living room. i was surprised and sad that i didn’t get one but then my dad said “do you hear that?” i could hear a faint ringing and i went into the office room and the ringing got louder… I checked everywhere and then i finally flung the couch pillows behind me and there it was! my first phone! it was a sweet Christmas.
i think my best christmas memory is last yr in Tulsa, Ok it was 75 degrees the day after christmas so we went mini golfing. it was tons of fun and something i will never forget.
That must have been weird to go mini-golf at Christmas time?
That was a cool way to get that!
That is too funny! Did they have to get the butter out and put it all over your head?
My favorite christmas memory was putting on a play for my family. My grandma would help my sister, cousins and I prepare to act as Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, and the Wise men. We would reinact the night of Jesus’ birth. We would also sing Chritmas songs and read the story of Jesus’ birth. Even though the audience would only consist of my parents, my grandparents, and my aunt I wouild always be so so so nervous.
I hope there is video of this!
