Merry Christmas to All

We hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas Eve! We can't wait until "Surf" is here and Santa decides to visit our house. I loved watching the NORAD Santa tracker as a kid and can't wait until he is big enough (of course now it isn't just on tv, but in 3D on google earth). What did you love about Christmas Eve as a kid?

I remember going caroling with all my sisters and we would all be shoving each other to the front of the group. You didn't have to sing as loud in the back.

i loved all sleeping in the same room and watching movies...but my favorite christmas memory was having cooper crawl under moms legs and knock her on her butt.

I can't really remember specific memories, but Mom and Dad always had big Christmas days! I can't even imagine how much time and money mom spent looking for our gifts, but we loved Christmas morning. Thanks Mom and Dad!

My Dad would build a fire in the den when he went in to see if Santa had come. That room didn't have any heat and it was freezing in there. We would wait in the kitchen until he said Santa had been there and we could come in. It seemed like it took forever. That's what we did with our family, too. Minus the fire in the fireplace! I loved having everyone watch the TV and see where Santa was on the radar. I loved going to get a huge Christmas tree to decorate. I loved eating all the goodies on Christmas day. Chocolate for breakfast -- anything goes!! I loved the big mess with paper and presents and going outside with all the neighborhood kids. Too many fun things to name!!

Just wondering if Surf will be too young next Christmas to get his frist surfboard?? Just wondering! Hoping to be in Hawaii with everyone in March 2010! Put it on the calendar!

My memories as a child were of the big Christmas Eve party at grandma's. The boys always got dart guns and ran around the house shooting each other.

Christmas at Grandma Reed's was all about dinner. Before Christmas she made chocolates......
