        My best memories are ones I didn’t appreciate and cherish the way I do now and wish I always had because spending the holidays with my dad was the best thing about all of my memories. And those memories keep you with me dad. I miss and love you so much

        My favorite winter memory is singing Christmas carols with all my family members. So grateful of those precious memories with my grandparents before we lose them.

          I love doing that too, but it’s not my favorite. My favorite is spending time with the dying. I work at a Hospice Home and sometimes there are patients there that have no family, so I like sitting with them and talking with them. Even if they are not able to talk I will either just sit there and hold their hand or talk to them while holding their hand or even just sitting in their room with them. They can feel someone is in the room at least and they are not alone.

      I personally always enjoyed getting the family back together in general. We always lived really far apart and it was the one time of year I got to consistently see them. It wasn’t so much about the presents as it was seeing my aunts and uncles and cousins every year for me!

    The most magical and fabulous time of the year is approaching – a series of winter holidays, which both adults and children are looking forward to. New Year and Christmas are my favorite holidays, a time of joyful expectation of miracles. Especially for me in childhood, when I was waiting for the fulfillment of my most cherished desires and, of course, gifts under the Christmas tree.

    My favorite winter memory is going to my mother’s house for Christmas. All of my family goes to her house and we have dinner, stay the night and then our children open the presents in the morning. Later we went sledding down a hill in my mother’s backyard, not a very big hill but is fun and safe enough for the children. After sledding we went inside and spent the rest of the day playing table games and cracking jokes.

    My best holiday memory was the last Christmas we had with my grandfather. We lived a 20 hour drive from my grandparents and we told them we were not coming home but I packed up 3 kids and made the surprise ride. When we got there, we got my aunt to get my grandmom out so we could sneak my grandad out. He had alzheimers so she was really protective of him. The kids and I snuck him out to a pizza place and pizza was his favorite. He was so beyond happy and my grandmother was laughingly aggravated at us but it was an amazing memory to cherish forever and my kids to always remember because even as adults they still talk about it every year.

    My favorite winter holiday memory was when I was elementary school aged and my best friend called me one morning and asked if I wanted to come with her family to spend the night at the ski resort. I jumped at the chance and we drove the two hours away playing all kinds of car games on the way. Now, not one of us knew how to ski, including her parents, but we brought sleds for everyone. We drank hot cocoa in the lodge, had pillow fights in the hotel, and spent half the night and the next day hiking up a giant hill to sled in the snow. It is still to this day one of my favorite childhood memories and definitely my favorite winter memory. It was such an unplanned spur of the moment trip that absolutely made my year.

    My favorite winter holiday memory is the day my son was born. It started snowing abnormally early the day he was born and it seemed like an absolute gift to see the gentle flakes falling outside while we were dealing with all of the hectic activity in the delivery room. I’ve never felt more peace from the snow before and it was just perfect.

    My favorite winter memory is back when it finally snowed for the first time in my town in Georgia. It’s never snowed here since but boy did I love it when it did.

    My favorite Christmas was when my son was 2 years old. This was the beginning of the magical years. I could see the excitement in his eyes every time he saw the twinkling lights and his infectious smile as we listened and sang to Christmas songs. His anticipation of Christmas morning made me excited. The days leading up to Christmas, I tried to imagine the expression on his face as he walked down the stairs that Christmas morning, but nothing I imagined came close to the moment he saw what was waiting for him as he ran over to me and gave me the biggest hug with a smile on his face I will never forget.

    Thanks for the opportunity. In response to the question posed (briefly describing a favorite winter holiday memory), I would have to say it was the first year that my daughter could walk down the stairs on Christmas morning to see the Christmas tree and the presents under it. Her Mom had to walk with her, as she was almost running down the stairs and we had to make sure that she didn’t fall – she was squealing with delight all the way down the stairs! Honestly a cherished memory!

    My favorite Christmas memory is the excitement of getting up really early on Christmas morning as a child to open presents from my parents.

    Christmas eve when I was maybe 8 or 9. It was held at my granddad’s and grandma’s home in the country. Grandma took us out to the chicken coop where we gathered about 2 dozen eggs and grandma squealed when she saw a large black racer slithering up the chicken coop wall. Granddad took us fishing on the river and showed us how to dredge up a few oysters. Then the whole extended family — there were at least 40 of us! — gathered around a large dining table (or one of several smaller tables for the kids) and enjoyed turkey, ham, oysters and more veggies than I could count, all of it grown within a mile of the house and all of it lovingly prepared by one person — my grandma (if you tried to help, she would snap “get out of my kitchen!”). Thank you Pops and Hilda! Love you still!

    I remember it snowed one year on Christmas. I sat by the window all day watching. My mom and I walked to the store after it finished and I remember thinking that any other time we walked to the store, it always seemed so far away. For some reason, walking in the snow wasn’t so bad.

    I remember (and miss) the time when climate changes weren’t so noticeable like today – it doesn’t feel like Christmas when, instead of cold rainy weather, you have warm and sunny days!

    A favorite winter holiday memory of mine is coming in from playing outside in the snow as a child, and my mom making my brothers and I hot cocoa.

    One of my most favorite winter memories is with my grandma. Every Christmas break she would come pick me up. Our first stop would always be to the library. We would both pick out a few chapter books and maybe a VHS or two. Then we would stop at Big Bear grocery and we would go to their salad and make the biggest salads that would hold in the containers. Go grab a block of colby cheese and a bag of grapes. Her little apartment had a fireplace and she would always have a small fire going. She didn’t have much, but she made sure that I always had my own chair. They would always be in front of the fireplace. We’d enjoy each other’s company while reading our books. Once we were finished we would share what they were about. Something so simple, but something I look back on. I’m grateful she is still a live at 85. Although our rolls have reverse, she is my best friend. I wouldn’t change anything in the world.

    Having never seen snow as a kid & growing up in Florida, my favorite winter holiday memory is going outside, turning on the water hose and having it shoot out a ton of cylindrical ice cubes. Only to be compared with walking outside and being amused by all the grass being frozen & breaking like glass as you walked over it.

    I always used to love riding around in the car with my family when we would search for neighborhoods with houses lit up by Christmas lights!

    My favorite holiday memory was helping mother in the kitchen with the holiday baking. I loved the smell of the cookies and bread and just being together and spending time with her.

    Love the holidays. Busy busy time. Then it slows down and gives me a chance to cozy up with a drink and a book. Happy New Year!
