:lol: merry xmas BG...wake me when it's over :)
I remember as a kid sitting up with my brothers talking about what we thought we were getting. I don't think we ever went to sleep.

How tragic. I've become jaded as h*ll over the last few years when it comes to xmas, but I still revert back to a little kid in that final week.Quote:

yeh......Christmas was soooo much better when your a kid.......**** it...i wish Santa was still real.........lol.......all you had to worry about was getting presents..........now your just buying presents for everyone else.........
When I was 6 i got a shiny red pedal car - I will never forget driving it around on Christmas day...
Now when I see the intense and pure joy on my daughters face when she opens her presents - well it just takes me back.
I'm with Big Green - I love Christmas.
:lol: :lol:

what about waiting to play with all your toys and your dad takes over and starts playing with em 1st........that really used to piss me offQuote:

Hey thanks...you too, though I'll never understand how xmas can happen in the presence of palm trees?Quote:

Santa doesn't really come that way; i'm convinced he has some sort of assistant who handles that neck of the woods.Quote:

Mary christmass to all on AR :) .

Thing that sucks about being spoiled during my young years of christmas: Getting motorcycles, horses, bikes, tonka toys, transformers, legos is..... It is gonna be hard for me to give my kid(s) a better Christmas than I had.
Isnt that the main goal of raising a child. Try to give him a better childhood than the one you had as a kid.
It really doesnt feel like Christmas when the day is 75 degrees and sunny with blue skies. I mean it is VERY peaceful cause there is NO TRAFFIC ANYWHERE. But, the day after, it feels like Christmas happened six months ago cause it feels like spring time still.
Im hoping the rain stays and it gets colder. At least murkey skies and rain helps make it feel like the season of Christmas with a warm fire to sit by. Kinda gay to sit by a fire when it is hot and sunny outside.
It's the best...there's nothing like going to the beach the day after Christmas! Anything under 70 degrees is way too cold. Especially when your used to not wearing a whole lot.Quote:

I think you'll be a great dad someday........a strange one.....but a good dad none the less. :)Quote:

yea...xmas in warm weather is the way to go...i've done both...JMO
i still get excited...i love christmas, but now it's more about the giving...and food...than about my own presents. I don't get to see my family much anymore (we're pretty close) so holidays are fun for me.
i will say this though...this xmas eve has blown big time...i spent 4 hours in the ER 'cause i broke my friggin ankle playing basketball...now i'm home popping some vicodin and going to bed...
