Christmas Decorations

My favorite Christmas decoration is our tree topper. It is an Angel. I like it because of the way it is decorated. She has red hair and blue eyes. She has the beautiful white and gold gown on. It is my favorite. Also, she has candles in her hands and you can plug them into the other lights on the tree and they blink on and off. I love the way it makes our Christmas tree glow. It's like the candles are a little glimmer of God's love for us.

Chirstmas Toy

A tradition at Christmas every year is that everyone gives someone else a gift, that they really want or really needed. One year for Christmas I wanted a movie. I hadn't gone out and bought it myself because I thought if I put it on my list I would get it. Well, I usually have two Christmases, one with my mom's family and one with my Dad's family. My mom's family's Christmas came first; I opened all my presents on Christmas morning. I was very excited to get all the gifts they were very nice and they were other things that I want, but I didn't get the movie that I had been hoping for, I was a little bummed because I didn't get the movie, but I was OK I knew I still had to go to my other Grandparent's house and they might give it to me. Well, we were very busy, so it was January before we got to have Christmas with my Dad's family. I had opened all, but one of my presents, still no movie. I open the last present, praying that the movie would be in there. I opened it up, didn't see the movie. I was really bummed, but I go on and take out the clothes that were given to me, and there in the bottom of the box was the movie. I was so ecstatic. I had finally gotten the movie I had been wanting; Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

Santa

I found out about Santa when I was in 6th grade. I found out because my sister and I had gone to bed and then about an hour later my mom and all the grown-ups came upstairs and were getting the presents. I had woken up, because I had to go to the bathroom and I could hear them talking outside my room and then I heard something rustling as they went down the stairs. I go on to the bathroom and on the way a peek down the stair to where the Christmas tree was and I saw them putting the presents under the tree. I was kind of disappointed, but I had already started figuring out their secrets.
