Christmas Poll #5
What is your favorite childhood memory or what was the best present you received as a kid?
Re: Christmas Poll #5
I remember the year I got my dollhouse. Loved that damn thing.
It wasnt until I was way older that my parents told me the story about how they wer so drunk trying to put it all together and put the stickers on it.
By far...when I was 8, my dad got each of us kids our own ATC. Best. Gift. EVER!
There are seriously SO many. My parents were (are) awesome and we always had great gifts and amazing memories!!
I guess one of the best stories I've been told (that Angi's reminded me of, hah) is the year they... I mean SANTA... got us a bouncy horse, like this:
They were putting it together in the middle of the night, and were pulling against each other to stretch the springs. Well my dad needed to look at the directions again, so he let go.... BAM!!! Plastic horse ass to the face for my mom!! Oh we laugh so hard at that story now!
Waking up at the a$$ crack and saying "HE WAS HERE!!!!" and because my sister always slept in I'd have to sit around waiting for what seemed like an eternity to open gifts!!! It killed me!!! I would also lay awake at night for as long as I could on Christmas Eve hoping I'd hear some reindeer on the roof
)
I think my favorite gifts as a kid was my Barbie Dreamhouse and the original Nintendo. Those two were very exciting for me.
Christmas was always crazy and hectic since my parents were divorced and both were remarried... so I never really enjoyed Christmas EXCEPT for the year that my sister had chicken pox. I was in the first grade. We had gone to my grandmas on Christmas Eve and my sister was itchy and my grandma is the one who realized she had pox... so we didn't go anywhere else but home. Everyone came to us and it was great. I don't really remember what I got that year, but I do remember that I got to stay in my PJ's and play with all of my new toys and everyone came to my moms house.
