So, we got on our sleds and flew down the living room stairs (and immediately got in trouble). From then on out, we used our sleds as boats (on the blue carpet) and piled them high with all our gifts and played.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797634231980014686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13557348.post-69302465852046395082006-12-21T17:27:00.000-05:002006-12-21T17:27:00.000-05:00...funny to try to think of my favorite -- I LOVE ......funny to try to think of my favorite -- I LOVE Christmas!<br /><br />One vivid memroy is when I was 3 or 4 (yes, I do remember back that far) and I got a Barbie Dream House for Christmas. Obviously I was BEYOND excited and jumped up on my dad's lap to give him a thank you hug. I was a pretty short kid, so I was actually standing on his leg and moved in close to wrap my little arms around his neck. In doing so, I stepped on his man-parts. He let out a load roar of a yelp. I was so confused and scared that my dad's reaction to my hug was to shout. My mom gently explained that I need to be careful not to step on daddy.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14988342066217077928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13557348.post-7544449415540935552006-12-21T15:04:00.000-05:002006-12-21T15:04:00.000-05:00Paul,

The whole family was done with presents and everyone was getting tired and very full of food. My father got two books by Patrick F McManus ... "Never sniff a gift fish" and "They shoot canoes, don't they" as a present and he started reading the hilarious stories outloud. The whole family sat there and laughed for hours and hours. All the kids were laughing too hard to play with other presents, and did not want to miss a single scene. <br /><br />Great memory! Thanks for bringing it back<br /><br />sAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
