    My best Christmas memory was the Christmas I was 17. I spent with my (later to be) husband and his parents, picnic lunch at the beach and so much fun. Sadly he passed on a couple of years ago after 52 years married.

    dont know as i have a favorite xmas but last year was rather nice. we were all at my son troy's place in LeCenter, mn. We had finished opening gifts and were sitting talking when Troy blurted out " there's one more gift to open". he quickly disappeared but returned in few minutes. He come up behind the armchair where his girlfriend was sitting. Holding a small box in his hand, he extended his arm til it was within her sight. Her jaw dropped, she grabbed the bo, whirled around in the chair, grabbed him and kissed him. Settling back in the chair, she exclaimed " i guess the answer is YES! as happy tears overflowed. We all laughed as we all knew he had bought the ring and had intended to give it to her on New Year's Eve but he claimed he couldnt wait. They were married last June.

    Great stories everyone. Keep them coming.

    Also, just a reminder to post that your package has been received. Please refrain from using names. Your swap partner knows who you are. I have had a couple PM's wit members wondering if their package has been received because their tracking says it has been delivered.

    Also, be sure to PM me that you have received your package. Will save me from having to PM you asking if it has been received.

    Thank you swappers.
