We ate turkey, steak, beans, cookies, and juice for a drink. It was the best Christmas ever. That I had. There was a lot of people there. My aunts, uncles, my cousins, and my grandma and grampa I liked it.

It is Christmas Day you think of all the presents you will get and the turkey dinner. You will watch football and fly kites, and play games. Then you eat all sorts of food. Like stuffing, juice, soda, turkey, steak, pizza, pies, cake, cookies, macaroni and cheese and chips and a lot of other good food. After you eat you play more games like Monpoly, Sorry, Bopit and Checkers. Sometimes you get to play outside in the snow for hours and hours!! If your lake is froze you can go ice skating. After you are done playing games we all go to bed.

Christmas Church When I travel to my grammaęs I go to church and see a play. We give out money, hold a candle and pray to God. We sing Eskimo songs. We sing them in Yupik I am starting to learn them. When they do the play I sit in the front with my cousins and watch. It is a funny play. My second uncle is the king in the play. We get a snack after church then we watch tv eat some of our snack and open our present at midnight and go to bed -last Christmas I got a necklace from my dad, my cousin Christopher got Lindsey and me the same thing. Lindsey is my other cousin she gets almost everything I get. When I wake-up on Christmas I wake-up Lindsey, my dad and sometimes my gramma, and grampa. Casey Coupchiak Age 9 North Star Elementary

A Christmas Memory When I was 4 years old our family got a ping-pong table for Christmas that we still never opened yet. We also got ping-pong balls and ping-pong mallets. My sister and I got squishy presents that were clothes. I lost a tooth on Christmas Eve and I lost a tooth on Christmas day. We also got tenna-shoes in Nike boxes. The ping-pong balls were whiteish orange. The ping-pong mallets were red and the other side was blue. I think the ping-pong table was green, black, and white. I also got a pull string action-figure and a motorcycle and a lot of candy. The End

Christmas How we get our tree at my house. We do not chop trees down we buy trees. We decorate it from top to bottom with lights, Christmas balls, Gold and Silver strings. We put up our stockings and put presents at the bottom of the tree everyone gets a present. Sometimes we celebrate early sometimes late. We sing carols sometimes. We sometimes buy presents late but Christmas is not just about presents itęs about things like sharing for instance. We have a Christmas eve party with chips, pizza, macaroni and cheese, christmas cookies, Hawaii foods, corndogs, buritos, hotdogs, cheese burgers, cheese sandwiches, bacon double cheese burgers and soda.
Bobby Hime Age 8 North Star Elementary

My favorite time was opening presents. We decorated a tree with bells and a star it looked good. We had a good time on a snowmachine. Tomarow is Christmas day and we will have a big feast. We will have a lot of fun playing games and playing with toys. Christmas is when Jesus is born so thats how we had Christmas.

Santa's Gifts It was the night before Christmas, nothing moved in the house; nothing that is, but me, and no mouse. Then, as the clock struck twelve, I saw him, him and his elves. Knowing who he was, I knew that he was Santa Claus. I had made a gift for him. Even though he is the one who gives presents to other people. I went out to greet him and give him his gifts. The gift I had made for Santa Claus was a new white and red hat. I had also got some cookies and milk for him. So in return Santa gave me a ride in his sleigh. That was the Christmas eve night that I gave a gift to Santa Claus.
Gabriel Strickland Age 9 North Star Elementary

Christmas Eve In 1997 I saw Santa Clauses fuzzy on the prsant. In 1998 my cousin and I saw Santaęs Elf and reindeer through the window but when we went to go see Santa and his elves and reindeer they werenęt there. I like the Macyęs Christmas day parade. On the 1st of December we wore red and green wich are Christmas colors. On Christmas Eve I say my prayes really fast so Santa will come. On Christmas morning I ripe open my presents after I ate brakefast. Then we lisen to christmas music and I play with my new toys. The End

The Best Christmas I had to go to the tree place to get a tree. I went shopping at big K. I was the one to pick the tree. I picked a brown tree for my mom and dad. I want people to have a house and to have a tree for presents. I hope you have a good Christmas in winter time. Santa is coming to town today. This is how we got our tree. We all went to the store to buy a tree for Christmas. My mom and dad made some cookies and some candy and some popcorn for Santa Claus. I have to go to bed at 7:00 p.m. I like Santa Claus a lot. Santa Claus is so cool in Alaska he goes house to house to give all of us presents and gives. Reindeer do not hurt you at all. I hope you are all having fun on Christmas day to have a Holiday. Sparkling lights in the air happiness over celebrate Christmas love god. Stockings in your house.

Last Years Christmas Last year I had so many toys I just didnęt want to cont them. Here are some of the toys I got: a cy player and cassettes. A Kelly doll and it coms with a stroller and a small bear in a stocking. I like last Christmas because my cousins Adrinna and Geselle came over. That was special because they are the only part of my family that lives in Alaska. They told me about their new dog Chuky. He was just a puppy but was really rough. I liked last years Christmas because it was snowy. Every Christmas is so special because that is when Jesus is born.
Jodannah Nunez Age 8 North Star Elementary

Christmas is Coming Snow is sparkling and Christmas is coming. Trees are white from the frosted snow. Nothings better than Chirstmas. Opening presents, singing song and Christmas carols. All the children are having fun bringing back the best memories ever. What could be better than Christmas? Children playing, owls hooting in the trees. Wolves howling in the brisky and silent forest. There is nothing better than to have a family full of love and joy. Christmas is not all about having presents its about having a life and a family. Christmas is the best time of year.
Jordan Harrison Age 8 North Star Elementary

The Present That Is A Wish I would like to give my aunt a trip to Conecticut. I would give it to her so she can go and see her mom and dad. Another reason is because she needs a break off of work. I also know that she had a lot of friends there that would really want to see her again. I know this isjust a wish but itęs the best I ever wished.
Christina Fischer Age 10 Mt. View Elementary School

A Gift to Mom This is the present I want to give my mom. I want my mom to go to Hawaii because she wantęs to see her brother. She would rather be in Hawaii because itęs hotter weather then Alaska. I want my mom to go to Hawaii because she has been wanting to go there. I hope my mom goęs to Hawaii. Christopher Quiriarte Age 9 Mt. View Elementary School

My Favorite Christmas The best christmas was last year. I liked it because of the presents I got. A walky-talky, slinky, and the car that flips back and forth. We put up decorations and we bought a small buket. We put candy under the tree. Santa ate candy too.

For Christmas I will want to get my mom Pokemon Thunder-Storm and a lot of rings because my mom loves Pokemon and rings. If my mom doesnęt get Pokemon Thunder-Storm, Hot- Water, Misty Deck and Thunder Bug she will be sad. If my mom gets what she wants she will love me my dad and my brothers a lot. A Gift for Mom

Your friend Dillon Covey Ninilchik School

My best Christmas In 1997, I had snuck out of bed and into the living room. I opened a VTech play computer that had to Dustin on it. After that I hid the present wrapings under my bed. When my Dad saw me playing the computer I got in big trouble! About an hour later, we opened the presents. My favorite toy was a Jurassic park dinosaur race track. It has an electronic T-Rex that tries to bite your car. Then I opened another present. It was an awesome, awesome remote controled airplane. My next favorite item was a bean bag. My next favorite toy after that was a lego helecopter. My favorite, favorite, item was a twenty two pistol. It could fire each bullet 2.5 seconds after the previous bullet. Then I went to my great grandmaęs house and opened some more presents. That was my best Christmas ever. Merry Christmas! by Dustin Winters Age 9 Redoubt Elementary

Dear Santa I wish for a sony-play station. I wish for a game called Need for Speed Hot Pursuit. Bike with gears on it. I wish for my parents to get a long. I wish for a monster truck. Remote control. I wish for a remote control monster truck for my dad.

A Big Gift For My Parents
By Eilza Chadwick Age 10 Mt. View Elem. Sch.

I would like to give a trip to Hawaii to my parents. I would like to give them a trip to Hawaii because they are not liking this weather. It is so slick and it wouldnęt be good if my mom slipped because she is going to have a baby in about a month. In Hawaii I donęt think she could slip very easily. Also because my dad and my mom like hot weather more than they like cold weather. I know it will probably be a long time before I get the money but I will do it for my mom and dad. Christmas Brother Dear Dan Rich, You have only ben gone for about 3 weeks but I still miss you becuse your my brother. And thats one of my greatest Christmas gift ever. I canęt imagen a grater brother than you. becuse, your the gratest and your not mean. And plus your ful of joy and you always cared about me. And your funny and I canęt stop becuse your the best and merry Christmas.
Love, your sister, Emily Rich Age 8 Soldotna Elementary
