My favorite holiday memory is at Christmas. I liked that Christmas because first of all that year I got everything I wanted. And I got to spend time with my family. This is why that was my favorite holiday memory.

One of my favorite holiday memories is when I got an iPhone 6 for Christmas. I was so excited it was the best day ever. It was an early Christmas gift. I had a good feeling at the time. I always wanted an iPhone.

My favorite holiday memory is 2011 Christmas. I got a four-wheeler. It was fast. I was four but I still had to wear a helmet though. So that is my favorite holiday memory.

My favorite holiday memory is, one Easter we went to church and the preacher was preaching. I was pretty much crying the whole time and something was telling me to go to the altar. So when the preacher said “does anyone have anything on their heart” I went up there and pretty much prayed harder than I had ever before. From that moment on I knew that I was saved. That is my favorite holiday memory.

I remember one time during Christmas that I woke up ran down stairs and ripped open presents then went outside to play in the snow. Then one Thanksgiving I ate so much that I passed out and had to see the doctor. The other time it was at Easter I was looking for eggs that were real and my dogs could smell them they made the choice to eat some. Also one Halloween I ate so much candy I got sick and didn’t have to go to school the next day. One Fourth of July I was setting off fireworks and I almost caught my house on fire.

My favorite holiday memory is when I don’t have to come to school. Because I don’t have to get bossed around. It is so fun I get to go hunting and play outside. I get to spend time with my family. The most important thing is Thanksgiving dinner.

My favorite holiday memory is hunting turkey on Thanksgiving. I like shooting turkey with a 22-250 rifle. The farthest I have ever shot a turkey was at 300 yards. I didn’t think I hit it but I did. It was with my pawpaw’s Remington mode 700 BDL 22-250

My favorite holiday memory is one on Thanksgiving because my mom gets me up really early and we watch the Thanksgiving Macy’s parade as we get ready. I have a lot of family and places to go to so we have to get up early so we can go everywhere that we need. I get really stuffed that day so I don’t eat a big breakfast. This is my favorite holiday.

One of my favorite holiday memories is when I woke up on Christmas and I started to open some of my gifts, I opened one and it was a 3ds. It was white and it had Mario characters on it. I was happy as a dog with two tails because I never got a 3ds before. I thanked my mom so much for it! So that’s my favorite holiday memory.

My favorite but worst memory is when I was about six or seven and it was Christmas day. “Santa” had brought me a present. I opened the pretty shiny paper with a big bow on top and there it said “Toolbox”. I was so sad that “Santa” had brought me a toolbox. I ran to my room and started to cry. My Mom came back and stood in the doorway and said, “Come open it, it might be something else.” So I dried up my tears and went to my Dad who was standing by the bright Christmas tree. I sat down and opened the box. What I had been waiting on my whole life, the one thing I wanted that everyone was talking about, the one thing I had asked for all these years and there it was MY DS.

My favorite holiday memory is the time I spent the night at my sister’s for Christmas and they did not know I was going to stay. So they gave me soap but it was foam soap so it was ok it smelled so good. When my sister and I go shopping to get food and when we get home we take the candy. Once on Christmas we went sledding and we hit a cinder block and my sister had to go the hospital. I will never forget those memories.
