WOOT CHRISTMAS!

I love Christmas, I mean, who doesn't? Free gifts, good food and don't forget no school for two weeks!! Every Christmas I go to my grandmother's house in Vancouver. Everyone comes and we celebrate the festive holiday. LETS NOT FORGET THE TREE! Even though we leave to Vancouver, my family still gets a tree for our house. We decorate it and my dog eats the pine needles... And what about snow!? Snow is a ton of fun to play in and it gives you a good reason to throw snowballs at people. Presents! We get and we give presents! We have to do a hell a lot of shopping and then we wrap them up and put presents under the tree. On Christmas morning you run down and you see the pile of presents you got (half of them are most likely to be clothes) Another great part about Christmas is making cookies and other good food for everyone. Anyways, what Christmas means to me is being with family and friends and giving presents to people you love!

What Christmas means to me (:

In my opinion Christmas is a time of year when people celebrate all the gifts in their life. Not gifts as in presents but gifts as family, and friends. When Christmas comes around i get to see a lot of family. Usually at my house on Christmas eve, my whole family comes to my house and we throw a party. Then on Christmas day, for dinner sometimes we have family over but usually we go to my grandparents house for a nice turkey dinner. Every year Sydney, Madison, Paige, Mia and i all do a gift exchange then go to a movie. We buy each other presents under 20$, go out for dinner then exchange gifts. After the party on Christmas eve, we all get to open one present and its usually pajamas that we wear to bed that night. Then the next morning we all get up at the crack of dawn and open our stalkings then the rest of our presents. This year on boxing day were driving up to Mount Washington. My sisters and i are all taking snow boarding lessons, while my mom and dad take my brother tubing. This year i'm extra excited because i just moved into a new house in August. Christmas is my favourite time of year, and i love enjoying it with family and friends. (:

This is what Christmas means to me. :)

Christmas is a time of year that is a unique time to get all the family together to show love for each other. Around Christmas, tons of my family come from different places to celebrate with us and we always have a very good time. I live with my mom and dad at seperate houses, so i get to have two christmas's. I spend half the christmas day with each of them and there side of the family. We always wake up quite early on christmas morning, and have breakfast while opening our stockings. After breakfast we go sit around the christmas tree and open the rest of our presents. That night we always have a lot of family over for tasty christmas dinner and exchange gifts to and from each family member. On boxing day we have always gone up to Nanaimo to see my grandparents who live there, and meet my dad's side of the family there. We have different snacks and drinks through out the day and open presents together. That night we all have another christmas dinner and stay over at their house. I love christmas, it is my favourite time of the year. I think this is because i love to spend time with family, and everyone is always so happy. It is always a great day, and i look forward to it every year.

Christmas

Is important to me because I get to spend time with my family. Have a huge dinner with my family and putting up Christmas lights with my dad. I love to play in the snow and go to mount Washington and go skiing and tubing. I enjoy putting up the Christmas tree and drinking egg nog in front of the fire. I love Christmas morning opening presents and seeing peoples faces when they open their presents. I believe that spending time with family is more important than receiving gifts but getting presents is still important.

Christmas!

Christmas is the best time of year! Everyone is in a joyfully mood. All the kids are playing in the snow. Also, there's carolers singing in the street !! What Christmas means to me is family and friends...in the snow. The Best part of Christmas is the tree. This year I got an uncultured tree. that means it was grown naturally on farm in Saanich. ( it has pine cones on it teehee)And you know whats under the tree.... PRESENTS! I think Christmas is about giving and not receiving. I also like drinking hot chocolate!!!!!!!!! Snow is really fun to play in with Maddie. It is also great to throw a snowball at brothers face! Another one of my favorite Christmas drinks are EGGNOG!!!!!

Christmas to me means spending time with your family, and spreading the Christmas spirit all year around. I believe Christmas is mostly about creating memories with with your family, and eating delicious food. When my family and I wake up at about 9:00 on Christmas morning, start opening presents and eat a awesome breakfast. I enjoy it when my family comes from Alberta, and celebrates the wonderful holiday. We usually just sit at home and visit with my loving family, and eat lots of food. To some people Christmas is just about opening presents and eating food, but our family mostly loves the wonderful family we have around us. I love to be old fashioned and just spread the Christmas spirit all year around. Usually when my family comes we throw a big party, and celebrate Christmas with my family and friends. To me, Christmas means having the right spirit, and being jolly all year around. :)

What christmas means to me.

Well I'm not religious, so christmas doesn' t really hit me as a religious thing, but pretty much all my family does is exchange gifts. My auntie and uncle normally come over to my house and join us and so does my dad. So it's normally me, my sister, my brother, my other sister, my other brother, my mom, my dad, and my step dad, and auntie and uncle. We all go to my moms house, eat breakfast/lunch and open presents and stockings. Winter is a very cold time, and normally at my house i get a lot of snow, but there is no snow in Victoria yet, i wish there was. Christmas is a very warm time at my house, with our fire going and all the presents, and my tree is always the best! My tree this year is like, 11 feet tall and like... 6 feet wide. It's insane. But that's about it, merry Christmas guys!

What Christmas Means To Me.

Christmas is a beautiful, loving holiday that is full of joy and giving. In my family, we buy each other gifts and have a turkey dinner where all our family attends, it's really nice because Christmas is when all our family comes together at once! We also decorate our house and blast Christmas carols in our house to really get us in the Christmas spirit. I belt out the good songs, even though I'm a terrible singer. On Christmas Eve my cousins, aunts,uncles and I, go to my grandma and grandpa's house and open gifts. It's nice to have a gift on Christmas Eve because it helps calm down the excitement for Christmas morning. Christmas is by far my favorite holiday. My favorite part is that everyone is in a happy mood! I also LOVE watching Christmas movies and drinking hot chocolate by the fire place, that is, after coming in and playing in all the snow! I love having snowball fights with my brother, I win every time. Usually we have a family snow ball war, it gets pretty exciting, I tend to think that i am champion! To me, Christmas is about family, giving, and turkey dinner. :)

What Christmas means to me!!

It's Christmas time!!

Christmas to means a time of warmth. A day when the family sits at the dinner table and where my brothers and my sisters and I stay awake all night and wake up at like 6 am in the morning! And decorating the Christmas tree and play in the snow and listen to Christmas music and get to see my younger siblings get all happy about Santa ! And usually family members who live far ways away come to visit. And than my friends would come over and say what they got and plus the yummy Christmas food comes out like egg nog which my brother always drinks all of it before we even get to see it!! And we always sneak the candy off the ginger bread house when our older brothers aren't looking...! When they notices we just run for our lives..! And always turns in too a big snowball fight! Plus it's always fun to shop for people and see the smiles on their faces when they get it! And i love to ride through the city and see all the lights on the houses it's just way better than driving around and seeing just plan old houses with no curator to them cause the streets are all lid up and in the malls the kids get really happy because they get to have their picture on Santa's lap!! That's what Christmas means's

The Artic Monkeys

The Arctic Monkeys are a band that got together in 2002 surprisingly because "they were bored", which is a weird reason for a band to get together. They originated in Sheffield, England but their music is playing all across the US, Canada and other places around the world. The band consists of four band members which are Alex Turner, who is the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Jamie Cook, who is the lead guitarist. There is also Nick O'Malley, who is the bassist and the back-up vocalist, and finally the drummer and also the back-up vocalist, Matt Helders. The first song which reached the number 1 charts (UK) was their second single "I Bet You Look Good On The Dance Floor". Their first album, "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" was released in January 2006 and became the fastest selling debut album in British history. So far, the Arctic Monkeys have 3 albums up to date, "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not", "Favourite Worst Nightmare", and "Humbug". My personal favourite album is "Favourite Worst Nightmare" because it's really fast and really loud. My favourite song from that album is "Brainstorm" because it's also very fast and i can play it on my real drums.
