Favorite Xmas ... I have a few...

The first Xmas we got to spend with you (Mom) after you got out of the Hospital.

The Xmas I asked Jane to marry me.

The first Xmas I spent with my daughters,

the family parties when we were kids;

and the last Xmas I had with my boys Buster and Samson.

The Gift I didn't get ... Star Wars X Wing fighter

The Gift I got that I really wanted ... My first guitar

What made Xmas special....Time with family,

playing with my cousins, the laughter and happy times. (Where did they go?)

Favorite food.. NUTROLLSSSSSSSSSSS!

Least favorite: Ham

Gifts opening.. as a kid I remember opening some Xmas eve and Xmas morning.

Now we do gifts on Xmas with my girls. Xmas eve, with Jane's family.

Xmas rituals...Get woke up too early.. Open gifts.. Then Jane and I cook breakfast... then take a nap if we're lucky.. then we spend the evening with Mom and Dad.

Decorate. Inside only

Adjustments...not spending too much.

I wish everyone in my family a very merry Xmas.
