My favorite Christmas ornaments are the ones my mom bought my sister and I when we were young. Every year we would get another ornament for the tree.

Merry Christmas to you all and have blessed Christmas Day and fun at Disney World! 🎄🥰

[@shellycampis6226]

Merry Christmas to you and your families! My mom died in 1990. She was the biggest cheerleader when it came to Christmas. She loved wrapping gifts, would put tons of stuff on layaway 2 months beforehand. We always had a tree, artificial or real. When she died, it took the wind out of our sails. So to breathe life back into the holidays, I found a scraggly pinon pine on a friend's ranch that just matched our emotions, the kind of tree that had the side you would face toward the wall😁I brought it home and decorated it. It was like the tree that could, and we realized that we could go on with our lives without her. That tree was a turning point. Thanks Chelsea and Priscilla. Your last words were touching and heartfelt😢❤

My favorite memory is spending Christmas Eve every year with my grandparents. We lived in Virginia and traveled to Washington DC where my grandparents lived in a small row house. My aunt, uncle, and cousins came from wherever they lived. It was a joyous family time. We always drove by the President’s outdoor Christmas tree near the White House. It was very tall and beautifully lit. Then we hurried back to Virginia where my Dad was sure he had seen Santa headed that way! I think of these special times often and miss all those family members I can no longer see. The pattern I would like is 4 Thank you so much for all you do and Merry Christmas!🎄🎁 ❤

CONGRATULATIONS! I am so hooked on your videos …. The best Christmas I ever had was the last year that my mother was alive. We had all gone in together to get her a Christmas present that she could use while she was getting her chemo treatments. The whole family was there when she was opening it. It was a Kindle Fire. She absolutely loved it. Her comment was I don’t even know how to open the sob! We all laughed and every year at this time we talk about that and watch the video of it. 1,2,3,4,5,7.

[@shannonnotestine1562]

My favorite Christmas memories was having Christmas dinner. Growing up my dad was an infantry platoon sergeant in the army and I thought everyone had 20 extra people besides family for Christmas dinner. My mom would cook an amazing feast (usually a large ham and a substantial turkey) and we would make stockings for the soldiers who were coming over so they at least had one present. The soldiers who came either didn’t have anywhere to go for Christmas, or weren’t able to leave to see family for whatever reason. My mom would make sure that all the soldiers called their families to wish them a merry Christmas and get caught up with family, back in the spray of paying long distance fees. My mother always said family was most important and treated my dad’s soldiers like extended family. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7

[@kimrae6752]

Oh! I forgot to answer the question! One of my favorite Christmas ornament stories is about a small fabric rabbit that I bought from a craft’s faire when our oldest (33 now,) was 1. It was handmade and when you pressed the belly, the song “We Wish You a Merry Christmas “ would play. Every year when we got out the ornaments , I always wondered if it would still play. When our now 30 yr old son was 15, it finally stopped playing and I 😭😭😭. I was SO sad because to me, that represented the end of our kid’s childhoods. Our sweet son did a little surgery and repaired the ornament for me and I was so happy. Today, i still have it and it is silent, but I’m okay with that because I treasure the memories and am thankful for all of our wonderful memories with our amazing boys. Xx

[@loriwilliams-whitson5125]

The first year my husband I were married , I put out our stockings. Christmas morning came and my husband stocking was chocked Full but mine was empty. my husband got all flustered and said he didn’t realize we actually filled the stockings. He thought they were just decoration the funny part about the story is he actually went to a pantry and started digging through for old candy and put it in my stocking, which was much more offensive than just not putting anything in the stocking to begin with. Every year since then he makes a big production about. He’s going out to get things for my stocking he will never ever forget. Lol I’m so excited for your new little one. That is such a blessing thank you for bringing me joy when I watch as I’m just getting in to cross stitching and your patterns so hopefully I’ll have a finished project soon… I’m slow.😊

When my brother was about 4 years old, all he wanted was a pedal tractor and wagon he had seen at the implement dealer while with our parents. His 3 older sisters knew what he was getting for Christmas. We were so excited for him! Money was tight at the time, so he only got one present. When Dad rolled out the tractor from the secret room, he looked at it and said, "Where's the wagon?!" We looked at him and all started laughing. To this day, some 40 years later we still chuckle about that comment at Christmas! 1 2 3 4 6 7 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all! 🌲⭐️

[@jessicaheronemus71]

My favorite ornament is a “peg-leg”Santa that adorns the top of the tree. When we were growing up things were very tight financially, and my parents couldn’t afford an angel or Christmas star to top the tree - so they bought a velveteen covered plastic Santa standing on one leg at the drug store, ripped off the stand and fastened him to the top of the tree with a hairband. As we became older, my mother longed to replace “peg-leg” Santa with something else, but all 6 of us kids firmly refused. We loved our Santa! Several years ago when we were all grown with Christmas’s of our own, my mom gifted each one of us a “peg-leg” Santa of our own (she had hunted through flea markets and antique stores for years to find 6 of them). She declared “You all have one now. Put him on the top of your tree if you wish - but I am putting a Christmas star on mine.” And yes, he lives on top of our tree and I have started hunting for “peg-leg” Santa’s for my kids. ❤. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.

Congratulations!! 💕 Can’t wait to “meet” her! My favorite memory would be when I was a kid we’d always go driving around a neighborhood called “Christmas Card Lane’ where each house was decorate and had giant painted Christmas cards on their lawn. It was a citywide thing. Then we’d go to a nearby park that was all decked out in lights and oversized snowmen and candy canes. Finally we’d head home and have milk and cookies and leave some out for Santa. Have a very Merry Christmas, ladies! ❤ 🎄 4, 6, 7

Our first Christmas as a married couple, my husband couldn't wait to give me my gifts. He has a hard time waiting to Christmas, even now! So I got all my gifts before Christmas. I made him go out and buy me something to open with family at least. lol Merry Christmas to you and your families! Happy Stitching! 1, 2, 3, 4. 6, 7

One of my favorite ornaments is a wooden Hawaiian angel I picked up in Hawaii when I was pregnant with our first child. It's 44 years old. 1, 2, 4, 6, 7. Congratulations.🎉

Congrats Chelsea, Matt & Cash on your upcoming addition!! My favorite Christmas story/memory was the year my folks completely surprised by younger brother and I (we were 9 & 11) with our puppies Abbey & Corky! It happened a few days before Christmas and it was THE BEST Christmas surprise EVER!!! As a mom of a now 17 year old, nothing is better than seeing our daughter's face light up, even now, when we surprise her with cool/unique gifts...I KNOW somebody in the VERY distant future, being able to surprise/send time with any grandkids we are lucky enough to have will be EVEN BETTER than our own daughter!! Blessings to you both and all your family members...you make this world a better place and THANK YOU for all your creativeness you share with all of us in KZbin land! 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Congratulations on your pregnancy! What a fun holiday surprise. My mom used to buy our kids Hallmark Christmas ornaments, Crayola for our daughter, and Snoopy for our son, which the kids enjoyed. ❤
