I would like to offer a Christmas goodie box giveaway here at our Henhouse. You can take the contents and use it for yourself or give parts of it to others you know could use a fun surprise.
If you wish to participate, just leave a special surprise memory you have of the Christmas season so we all can have fun hearing your story. I will choose a winner on December 5th so I can get the box to you to use as you think best. Ho , Ho Ho, Here comes Santa Claus! |

Winnie, what fun to kick off the Christmas season!
A memory I'd like to share is one of my daughters. I think they were around 12 and 10. The eldest loved to draw and she just had a natural gift for it. Her sister on the other was gifted in language. So unbeknownst to us until Christmas morning, they had written and illustrated a short story depicting a hilarious rendition of our family's Christmas morning. I still have it and will always treasure it. I'm a so proud they were able to do that at such a young age. We were rolling with laughter when we read it because they were quite spot on for all of us. |

My Christmas memory is one that happened when I was in grade school, but I didn't know ALL the details until I was quite a bit older. My mother told me about this one Christmas when I had come home from college for the holidays.
My mother always did her Christmas shopping early and then hid the presents in the attic and wrapped them Christmas Eve. One Christmas Eve, she opened the box for a metal car garage that she had gotten for one of my brothers. The box was in perfect shape, but the garage was completely dented; it was so dented that she couldn't put it under the tree. But what was she going to do? She always had the exact number of gifts for each of us, and now she was one Santa gift short. She often thought out-of-the-box. She got the Sears Christmas catalog and cut out the picture of the car garage she had purchased. Then she got a Christmas note card she had, pasted the picture of the garage in the card, and wrote a note to my brother and signed it Santa. The note said that Rudolph had stepped on his present and dented it, the elves were making another one, and it would be delivered in 2 days. After Christmas vacation, my brother bragged to everyone at school that Rudolph had stepped on his present and Santa had sent him another one. My mother ordered another one and it arrived in a few days. |
