Lady Raider Christmas Memories
Erin Myrick My favorite memories of Christmas time are when I think of my Grandpa Isaac being here. He used to buy me and my sisters roller blades and we would get to spend time with him, which was good because we didn't get to spend a whole lot of time with him when he was alive.
Kaylan Talley My favorite Christmas memory was when I received my first pair of skates. I had been wanting those skates for a long time after all the commercials I had seen about them. The first time I put them on I broke my arm because I was riding around trying to pretend like I was Barbie.
Jordan Murphree All of my memories from Christmas have been good ones. I get to spend time with my entire family. My favorite present was when I got the Barbie Dream House. I slept in that house every night.
Teddy Griffin My favorite Christmas memory is when my grandma gave Darrice and me our very own Doodle Bear. Doodle Bears were popular at the time and we both really wanted one. We were so excited when we opened them. I still have my favorite Doodle Bear today.
Ashlee Roberson My most memorable Christmas memory was in the year 2004. My entire family came together that year as one and put all arguing aside. I had a lot of fun because a few days later on New Year's we were still together to celebrate. From then on, we haven't had any problems and I love spending all the holidays with my family.
Dominic Seals I love all of the holidays that I get to spend with my whole family. We always get to catch up on life and have a lot of fun together.
Natalie Thomas My favorite Christmas memory is every one that I get to spend with my family. I loved spending Christmas at my grandparents' house with all my aunts and cousins. My family is the most important thing to me so I love the opportunity to go home. I love Christmas because it is the perfect opportunity to get together with family and friends and celebrate the birth of Jesus. I think Christmas is the best holiday. I love the cold weather, opening presents, and listening to my dad read Christmas stories from the Bible.
Alana Rumph I love every Christmas. Christmas time consists of Christ, my family and basketball. These three things are what Christmas is about and that is, and always will be my favorite memories.
Maddy Brown Every Christmas has been memorable for me in its own special way. A Christmas tradition that I love is being together as a family and going to church on Christmas Eve. Many times on Christmas day we will go skiing and sledding in the afternoon. Then we finish the day be sitting by the fire and drinking hot cocoa and talking about how much fun we had on Christmas.
Stanecia Graham I was born on Christmas so when my mom gave birth to me and my sister is my favorite memory.
Kalee Davidson My favorite memory of Christmas is when I got a basketball goal and a glow in the dark basketball. My parents surprised me and had it outside waiting for me.
Raquel Christian My favorite memory of Christmas is when I was nine-years-old. I really wanted a my-size Barbie but after opening all of my gifts I saw that I didn't get one. I was disappointed but happy with the Easy Bake Oven I got. When I went to get in bed that night, there was a my-size Barbie under the covers. I was so excited.
Tiny Henderson My favorite memory of Christmas is when I got a pogo stick. My sister and I had matching ones, but she didn't know how to jump on hers so I had to teach her. My stepdad tried to jump on it too, but he fell off. That same year my entire family got together and ate at my grandmother's house. It was so much fun!
Maria Moore All Christmas holidays are wonderful. I always get good gifts but none of them compare to being able to see my family. Being away at school is hard because I'm really close to my family and getting to see them is great because we are all very close.
