Christmas Kiddos

Christmas has been my favorite holiday since I can remember - The traditions, the lights, the family time, and the presents, and even now, I still act like a child every Christmas morning. Up at 6am, sneaking a peak at the tree, and sorting stocking goodies before my parents wake up.

Now that I am older I still spend Christmas Eve at my parents, waking up without my brothers and them would just be weird and until I have my own family, I am sticking to traditions. 

Now don't get me wrong, I know that Jesus is the reason for the season, but I love some good Christmas present surprises! Here are a few of my favorite:

* Barbie Camper - seriously #1 on my Christmas list and I was too excited when I opened it. Now looking at it, it looks cheap and boring - but when I was 8.. It was amazing!

* Easy Bake Oven - every body wanted this and I got it. Longest cook time on a brownie even but I loved making them!

* American Girl Doll - BEST PRESENT EVER! I wanted Molly because she had glasses and so did I - when I got her I think I cried - especially after my brother drew X's on her feet with permanant maker, but that's a story for another time.

Now a days my presents are more expensive and I get less of them, but honestly my favorite part is the memories I make with my family during the holidays. Someone always does something crazy - usually during our annual Just Dance competition and we just all have a blast together :)

 I mean just check out the video... amazing skills my dad has right?

Hope you all have a very Happy Holiday season :)
