The cat I had when I was growing up would love sleeping under the tree, we had a super fuzzy tree skirt for her to lay on and she often looked so very happy sleeping on it. She always seemed disappointed when it went away again but got excited again when it came back the next year.

I don't have any particular memory, it's more the feeling that comes every year around the season, people are so happy and it's contagious.

West Germany with the only clothes I wore..I was united with my mother and siblings who were bombed out during the war,and lived in a small coldwater flat.Things were very bad.But for Christmas we got a large  C.A,R,E, Paket (Parcel). from a charity .Inside was a canned turkey ,coffee and other items .The most importend a lot of used clothes,There were dresses for my yonger sisters but for me a winter coat  from Cashmere Wool. and a dress  that fitted.The first proper winte rcoat that kept me warm for many years.I still wished we could have thanked the American people who donated the stuff.

My favorite holiday memory is spending a whole day skiing with childhood friends that came home for the holidays a few years ago. It was special to me because they don't come home often.

My favourite moment during the holiday is being with myself, working out, and reflecting on the past year while preparing for the next one.

Getting my Kuwahara BMX bike as a child under the Christmas tree.....something I will never forget.  Rode it in the basement as there was snow outside.

Holed up as a kid with my hilarious favourite cousin, listening to the newly-released-at-the-time Grease movie album on repeat.  Happy times.

I always loved setting up the Christmas tree. It's always such a family affair and really brings the spirit home.

A snowy Christmas with all the family over and the wonderful feeling of exhaustion and relief once the turkey dinner is on the table and everyone is eating.

I was working in Germany from 1980 to 1984, and in 1981, we had our first and only "white Xmas" during that time.

Favourite Christmas memory is from when I was a child, around 11-12 at Mum and Dad's house and all (and I mean ALL) the family, Great grandparents, grandparents, Aunts on both sides, Uncles on both sides, their kids and their kids.  The house was full.  The women would all putter about in the kitchen and dining area, setting up the food festivities for lunch.  There was the adult table and the children's table.  Must've been at least 30+.  🇦🇺

As a kid, waking up ridiculously early to open gifts, waking my parents was a whole other task. But eventually, we were all awake, all gifts open, playing with new things and sipping hot chocolate all before the sun even started to rise ❤

The year we got a fire place and all the family kids came over to send letters to Santa. Apparently, this was the most effective way to get your Holiday wishes to the Big Guy!
