In 1st grade I had the most amazing Christmas. My whole family was with me, there was Annie, Dennis, Mark, Rosie, Theresa, me, Sarah, and Michael. It was 2:15 and Rosie, Sarah, Theresa, and I could not sleep. My mom said we can’t open presents until 4:00 and so we waited. When it was 4:00 we rushed down my house stairs and opened our presents. Santa gave us wonderful presents. We also went to church on Christmas day. My whole family had a great Christmas.

This was a Christmas i would never forget. My family and I were sitting in are livingroom sharing gifts and food and there was a knock at are doorwe heard a HoHoHo and in walked Santa and His big red bag. He asked for Vinny and ganan if we were being good and we said yes Santa said i have some Gifts for you and Ganon. We both sat down Santa handed us are Gifts and said we could open them so we did. After opening them Santa took pictures with us and ask us how old, We were, we told him i was 4 and Ganon was 6 year old. Santa said Merry Christmas and off he went with a Ho Ho Ho. the rest or the family left shortly after and are night came to a end and what a evening It was.
