When you were a kid, what was your FAVORITE Christmas?

[Stepharoonie!]

I remember it like it was yesterday!

When I was 9 years old, I was HUGE into My Little Pony. I begged and begged and begged Santa Claus to bring me the My Little Pony Dream Castle for Christmas. My poor Ponies didn't have a home!

So, Christmas morning around 3 or 4, I got up, went out to the living room, and there on the floor was a HUGE Mickey Mouse tent set up for me! AHH! I was so excited, I ran back to my room and got a blanket and a pillow, and zonked out in the tent. I had completely forgotten about the castle.

The next morning, my mom and dad found me sprawled out in the tent. When I woke up, I was actually very embarrassed to be found in it...I guess I wanted to act surprised for my parents.

I ended up getting the My Little Pony Dream Castle as one of my last gifts...I screamed so loud, I thought I popped my dad's eardrum! I drug the tent to my bedroom, and slept in it for many, many days with the castle inside.

My dad also took us to the Magic Kingdom the next day....sigh. I wish being little That was one of my favorite Christmas memories!

What a neat Christmas memory!

When I think back to xmas past, oh, so long ago a favorite memory is about a school program. I had been chosen to be the girl lead in our second grade show and I was pretty excited about it. I guess I was bragging or showing off one day so the teacher called me to her desk. She said, we didn't pick you cause you were better then the other kids, we picked you cause you talk louder then anyone else! I guess she told me. i didn't care why they picked me, I was a star, my grandma said so!

They were all good when I was a kid, but I suppose I must have really enjoyed it when I was the "angel captain" in the kindergarten play. I got to stick a star on top of the tree, I probably thought I was pretty cool. Too bad the star ended up somewhere in the middle of the tree and nowhere near the top.
