My best memory will be the recent time that I got the tree and decorations out.My depressed and jaded mind was trying to tell me NOT to bother.

But when my brothers' children came round and I saw the glow of the lights on their faces and awestruck expressions...I Loved it !!

It was a 'middle finger' victory salute to the BP..for a while.

I'll never forget that.

Best Christmas was when my son was a around 4 or 5. It was the joy in seeing his face as we handed him each gift. A couple of years later he grew ungrateful (taking after dad).

But those early years are holy as far as I'm concerned.

Every Christmas holds a special memory. But two christmas's ago my grandma was dying in the hospital and I would spend every night after work visiting with her and we would share a Dairy Queen blizzard. This time of year always reminds me of that.

My best memory is one christmas when my younger brother and i were laying under the tree amongst the gifts, looking up at the lights and ornaments on the tree and talking about christmas.

so many good ones. The first xmas with my husband. My stepgranddaughter was only one year old, precious moments.

I have never had my own children and this experience of loving a child with the man I love is divine.

Never had children, but have another granddaughter 18mo.
this xmas promises lots of new wonderful moments.

My sister and I were at the age when we were doubting the Santa thing. It didn't help that Dad worked all night at the LA Times and wouldn't even be home on Christmas morning. There were no presents under the tree.
We went to Christmas Eve service at church, and when we came home, the Christmas tree was turned on, and there were tons of presents under the tree! We were with Mom and Dad the whole time! Santa really did come!

The best christmas I have had by far was when I was six and my parents sent me to PA with my grandparents. Their gift to me was $100. And they gave it to me in 100, $1 bills which they hid all over the house and the yard. Whatever I could find that week was mine! Smart people. Kept me busy like crazy. I think I found about 90$.... after that, we found ones everywhere in random places for a few years.

Best Christmas ever was when I was 15, I left my house to be with the guys and we bought some Red Mountain Chablis and I had about 30 MDA. (Pre Estasy days)MDMA.

We started laying skids all over the Jack in the Box parking lot and got pulled over. Of course. Then I got arrested and my parents had to get me out of jail on Christmas night.

That was the day my dad threw a gallon of Ice Cream as hard as he could at my head. He was a lousy shot.

He literally is like me no family. But he has no pictures of his...
