Comment from Mary Shifman
It sounds like your childhood Christmases were quite wonderful, family oriented events. I grew up in a small town and we only had a couple of general stores, but they carried a lot of things. My parents would drive the forty miles into a bigger city (town really) and do Christmas shopping, too. I always enjoyed getting ready for the holiday as much as the holiday itself. Nice retelling of your experiences. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I can tell you had wonderful Christmas' Good luck wit the contest. I'm sending you a pm.
Every year my dad would turn the Christmas lights around our house on.
He would go up the hill to cut down a tree for us.
I loved to help decorate the tree.
I realized that Santa Claus was actually my mom and dad.

This is a beautiful rendition of Christmas remembrance and how the event was celebrated in this particular part of the world - it evokes a sense of neighbourliness and appreciation

Pookie,
Well, now I have! These memories sound very familiar. You and I had a lot of the same kinds of childhood Christmases. *smile* They were warm and loving and filled with family and fun. This was a sweet look back! Thanks!

So fun to read your memories! I, too, have fond memories of Christmas shopping with my family. I played Old Maid with my grandpa more times than I could count--he always won! My sister got an Easy Bake Oven one Christmas. It was fun to share her creations. And I haven't thought about snow angels for a very long time! What fun. We are lucky to have such happy memories.

You have a lot of different fond memories From your childhood at Christmas time. That's great that what you started when you were a child you continued on into your adult life and that those memories have been a great tradition throughout all the years. Thank you for sharing, and good luck in the contest.
