Christmas Memories


Christmas has come and gone yet for another year. Every Christmas I think back of when I was little and how much fun Christmas was. As I searched through the family albums I found myself laughing at how much fun we had as kids during Christmas time. I'm sure Mom and Dad wanted to strangle us kids on Christmas morning because we were always up so early....no really, like 4am. I remember getting told to go back to bed for a couple more hours....those couple hours took a lifetime to pass!! Every Christmas Eve Santa would find our house and always leave us spoiled rotten. I remember times being tough when I was young, but Mom and Dad always made sure our Christmas was one to remember. Thank you Mom, Dad and Santa!! I've added a few pics of us kids and our Christmas trees over the years.

One of my favorite gifts under the tree...Tazzi, his favorite place to be this time of year.

I hope that we always remember those fun Christmas memories and never let the child in us die!

All of your pictures are so cute. I'm glad that you remember how great Christmas was when you were little and that it was hard to provide for 6 kids. We always tried to make Christmas extra special also. Great memories. Your Dad looks like a punk! HAHA.

Those pictures are classic! I love how you update about when you were little. It brings back a lot of memories to me too! We got some of those same presents for Christmas when we were little.
