    We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of my grandniece Miss Marilyn Rose. She is due on January 2nd, but a Christmas arrival would be lovely. Even better, a December 29th arrival would be a special birthday present for the aunt who has already purchased infant sized pink cowboy boots with faux black snakeskin uppers to start my grandniece’s shoe collection in the proper way!

    Most memorable gift is a plastic drum set I received when I was around 6 or 7 years old. I remember banging on it with the drum sticks. One day the top of the drum broke. I was very sad until I realized there were other musical instruments inside. Nobody in the family knew about them. It was a nice surprise.

    The most memorable gift would be hard to choose but it has to be anyone of the many gifts made for me by my children when they were in grade school. They are truly priceless.

    A wrist watch from my parents was my most memorable gift.

    It is hard to choose. One would be a pink ballerina doll.

    I get an annual calendar with pictures of the family from the prior year – I get to look at their smiling every day & see a new set of pictures every month.

    One of my most memorable gift was a puppy I got on my seventh birthday. I named the poodle Baby.

    My most memorable gift was I got my horse. I was around 9 yrs old, I still think about him today, like it was yesterday. My horse was my best friend.

    This is really hard to answer, because there are a lot of gifts I remember from over the years, especially the ones I still have. I think, perhaps, my most memorable gift would be the year my husband gave me a sewing machine for my birthday (especially since I went into labor early the next morning with my daughter!).

    That’s easy. It’s when my 8 year old daughter went into remission from Bone Cancer and after spending 11 months as an inpatient she was released to go home on Christmas Eve. :)The greatest gift of all time. I’m so Blessed to say that was 15 years ago and she’s a beautiful and healthy young woman today. 🙂 Happy Holidays everyone.

    One of my most memorable was a gift DH gave to me when he proposed–he’d kept a journal of our time together, and it was such a treasure to see in his own words what some of that meant to him 🙂

    Back to my childhood days when I was 10, my mom got me a beautiful bride doll as part of my Christmas gifts. I loved that doll and really enjoyed playing with her. Still wish I had her today. Maybe that’s why I have a small collection of dolls!

    A bottle of my favorite perfume: Snow, Glass, Apples. It’s from the Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab and was produced in a very limited run.

    I was about four and I received a stuffed animal from my older sister, one from her own collection. I cherished it. lol
