I'll go first, my parents had bought for me and my little sister these adorable ginormous teddy bears that were twice our size :haha: A brown one for me and a white for my sister.

They were there under the Christmas tree once I got home on Christmas Day after travelling with my grandpa on the train back to my hometown all night. It will always my most precious Christmas memory.

Funny thing is, I had seen them at the local Christmas store a few weeks earlier so that got me a little suspicious about Mr. Claus :haha:

Mine was when I was 5 I got my 1st pair of figure skates...I knew then that would be my future. It lasted until I was 14...When My Mom passed it was too expensive to continue. My Dad would take me every year to see The Ice Capades... I still love to watch it on TV. My fav skater is Kurt Browning. I cried when he shaved his head for fellow skating friend Scott Hamilton who was diagnosed with cancer..Oh the memories Thanks Vas :thumbsup: :hug:

My favorite Christmas present I recieved was a barbie doll house. I loved barbie and I still do. In fact, I had taken a 4 plus year break from yoworld and decided to log on one day during the summer. Yoworld had the barbie theme and that theme brought me back to yoworld. I have been playing everyday since. :heart:

When I was like 5 years old, I saw Queen Elizabeth's Crown Jewels and commented to my Mother that I thought the Queen should share some of them. So my Mother bought me a little gold necklace and ring that had hearts on them for one of my gifts, and told me they were my Crown Jewels. I still have that jewelry. Pretty much the only thing still remaining from my childhood.

Not necessarily a gift, but as a kid, I would look forward to every Christmas, my aunt would make homemade chocolates and candies. Always my favorite!!

Oh, it was definitely a miniature, electric toy train that my parents bought for me. Dad and I used to play together for hours - it was obviously his favorite present, too :haha:

I love this! And I love all of the sweet memories being shared :heart:

Probably my favorite Christmas memory is waking in the middle of the night to the sound of my parents playing our new Nintendo. My mom was always a kid at heart and if we made it until Christmas morning (usually she caved on Christmas eve), she would wake us superrrr early bc she was so excited to watch us open gifts. That Christmas in particular, she and my dad couldn't wait to try out OUR new video games and got a little too roudy... we crashed their party and caught them in the act! :haha: Needless to say... we opened presents at midnight that year. :heart:

Thanks for the contest!

My favorite would be my baby :D like literally. I have never received gifts from my family since we usually give "aguinaldo" or cash envelopes. So when I conceived my baby, it was one of the most exciting and precious gift I have ever received. We didn't expect to actually conceive early since I have problems with my reproductive system.
