So I’ve been really bad with being consistent with these. The rate I’m going I’ll make it to Christmas right when I hit the end of the list, even if I started way earlier… :)

Day 5: My favorite Christmas memory… was probably when I was 10 or so. It was my family and two of our family best friends and we rented a condo/cabin up in Big Bear. I don’t believe that it was actually Christmas like Dec 25th, but it was definitely for Christmas break. There was snow all around us and all the kids were pretty much around 6-11 years old, so it was when anything was fun for us. I vividly remember just lying down on the carpet almost blocking the doorway with the other kids while we were playing war (the card game). We were all in our turtle necks and sweats and it was just a relaxing time. It just felt really good because I was with some of my best friends (Joanna and Jonathan) and it was exactly how I picture the winter season and I felt so carefree and safe with my family. It was relaxing and fun and even though that’s the only memory of that certain trip, it was just a great feeling :).

Day 6: Favorite reindeer is Rudolph, duh! Who else would you choose?! None of the other reindeer have character (or a red nose, of course)!
