Christmas Memories...

[holidaytwinkle5289]

My most memorable christmas's
were when I was between the ages of 5 and 12
The reason why
is because those christmas's
were spent in my most favorite home.
The home I grew up in...
This was between the years 1995-2002
I had the best holidays in this home.
It was a great time for me & my family...
Every christmas seemed just wonderful..
These were the years when it always snowed..
And times just seemed wonderful daily..
The 90's were just great years.
I really miss this home.
Today I'm 18 years old..
My parents sold this home back in 2003.
It's funny because today, I drive pass this home once in awhile and those memories suddenly comes back.
In my heart..
I still live in that heart..
Although I'm there in body.
I'm there in soul.



Are there any special holiday memories you guys have?

I get nostalgic all the time, It's not just a place,it can be a smell, the way something looks, or anything and it just gives me that Chrismassy feeling.

One of the best Christmas memories, I think I was five years old or around there, was when my neighbor from across the street showed up in my house around midnight in a santa costume. ( of course i didn't know it was him at the time. ) My dad came upstairs and woke me up, carried me down the stairs and as we were going down, I could hear him ringing a bell and saying ho ho ho. It was SO exciting, and a little frightening, and as soon as my dad and I approached him, he took off out the door with his bag because you're not supposed to see santa of course. It was amazing. I was telling my brother all about it the next morning because he slept through it and I was practically choking on my words I was so excited. cheesy

Growing up every Christmas was special and wonderful. My parents made sure we had good memories. I remember one Christmas my dad had helped a local business remodel and they gave my dad all their old decorations, well my dad had our house decked out. He was the one that was into decorating, my mom loved the decorations but was never creative in that department. They passed on a wonderful legacy to me.

And one Christmas Eve after I was married with children it was snowing very heavily and my husband went out to shovel. He was gone a very long time, I was getting concerned. Well it turns out that when he was close to the road shoveling an elderly couple stopped in their car and needed some assistance, the man was sick, so my husband helped them. It's always a blessing to help others and forget your own needs and wants. We were glad my husband was available to come to their aid.

My memories would have to be when I was youngster, watching christmas specials on tv with my dad and my younger brother, and going out and chopping down a tree, just the smell of pine brings back fond memories, and having the whole family and relatives ( I had a very large family with heaps of relatives too) around for christmas day, which were always fun, and since my dad passed away some years ago, it's not the same without him, but we make it special day any way, which would make him proud as he was a big christmas lover as well...
