The Christmas of My Dreams

 

The Christmas of my dreams is having a real Christmas tree decorated with doves, angels, Santas, elves, stars, bells, snowflakes and other nice ornaments, and packed with presents for all of my family, relatives and friends. It would also be celebrating the birth of Christ on Christmas Eve with all my family members who would be alcohol and drug free.

We would go to the Christmas program as one big family in nice clothing and looking forward to the exciting night with other families who enjoyed the holiday as much as we did. We would go caroling with other families and friends on Christmas Eve. Then on Christmas day we would open presents and thank those who gave us gifts.

After spending the holiday at home, my mom, dad, Carlene, Theo and I would travel to St. Mary's where we would visit my sisters, Augusta and Elena and Elena's kids for three days. Then all of us, including Jacob Isaac, would leave for Anchorage from St. Mary's to visit Sophie and her boyfriend, Gary, for five days. We would shop at the malls, go out and eat and go to the movie theater.

Then I would go to Orlando, Florida, for one week with Jake and Theo to visit Disney World. We would have a grand time taking in all the rides and going out to the beach to swim every day. I would take a lot of pictures so I could remember the good times we all had. After getting back to Anchorage, I'd tell the family about our fun in the Lower 48 and show everyone all the pictures I took. After staying there for another three days with my family, we'd come home four days before school started.
