On my Christmas break I had Christmas with my families. I gave gifts to my mom and dad. I also received many presents like a Zac Efron blanket, high school musical board game and sing it for the playstation. I also got tons of clothes.

On Christmas Eve I went to church to have a Christmas Eve service. We do that every year. Then we go home and open gifts. I got a ripe stick and a snowboard from my brother and mom and dad. From my grandparents I got a golden boy rifle. From my aunt and uncle I got $10 and a sweatshirt. On Christmas day I got a Nintendo DS. I gave my brother a racing clock. To my mom I gave her a necklace and earrings to my dad I gave him a ww2 book.

On the day after Christmas we went down to our grandparent’s house in Iowa. I got $10. Then we went to my other grandma’s house. When we got there we had pasta and bread sticks. I got a tie and hankies. Sounds funny for a 12 year old right that’s what I thought. Then we went home and watched TV for the rest of the time. Just kidding we did chores. On New Year’s Eve we had a party at the church and watched the ball drop that was my Christmas and New Year’s. NC B6

I went sledding with my friends all Christmas break. Corey, Nick, Kyler, Josh, and I went sledding at Sylvan Lake down by the hospital. We built a tunnel in the big drift that was there. I went to my aunt uncles house for Christmas and it was a packed place, as soon as I got there I wanted to leave you couldn’t breathe.
Just last Friday Josh, Kyler, and I got in trouble with the cops. We were having a snow ball fight when some of the snowballs went into the street which wasn’t good. The cop wasn’t mad he just warned us that it could be dangerous. Kyler and I went to the movie bolt it was an all right movie. It wasn’t the best movie I had ever seen, but Kyler and I would just talk and not really watch the movie. On New Year ’s Eve I had the Johansen’s over it was really fun. We stayed up till 3:30 in the morning. We played tag in the dark and played playstation2 all night.6B-ZN

Well one of the things I did this over this amazingly long vacation is I went sledding. But you may be thinking… “Wow sledding cool” in a sarcastic way. But this was no ordinary sledding trip. No I went sledding behind our big, old brown four-wheeler. And we made our very own sled. It was made of a HUGE chunk of thick plastic, some very strong string as other would call “ROPE”, and tied it all on to the hitch of the four-wheeler. So that was my sledding experience.

Now my Christmas wasn’t all that exciting. But I did get A Wii. It is so cool I love it but I have to share it with my sisters Grrrr. I also got this weird face wash that is like a mask and I and my sister Erin wanted to try them so we did. Her was different then mine. Mine was cold and gooey, hers was warm and slimy, and hers had to stay on for 5min.But mine had to stay on for 15min.But my face felt great after it was done anyway I had a great vacation, and can’t wait till next year BK/B6

Over the break, I watched SportCenter and Watched the Vikings. It was not the greatest Christmas ever. I only got two awesome presents and they were seven logic puzzle books and a sports trading card case.

The rest of the break, I played computer and read. I also went to dinner at my dad’s friend’s house. It wasn’t a very active time for me. I played a little with my sisters, Kaylee and Kortney. I am happy that we got the time off. KL 6B

On my Christmas break I didn’t do anything much but on Christmas Day I went to Watertown.
I ate out at McDonalds. Then on Friday I got only 1 present because my parents couldn’t buy stuff in Marshall till Friday night. So I got a box of axe. Then on Saturday I got a lot of Presents. You could barely see the tree stand. On New Years night, Greg came over and slept at my house for a New Years sleepover. Then again on Saturday he slept over.

On Sunday I watched the Vikings and Greg didn’t leave till 5:30pm. The Vikings sadly lost. Finally I read and fell asleep watching the Minnesota Wild. That was my Christmas break. J.P 6G

Over my Christmas break I got a whole bunch of gifts. I got an Xbox 360 from “Santa”, a packer’s jacket from my aunt, a silent hill game from my dad, and an IPod shuffle from my cousin. The silent hill game and the IPod shuffle I am going to have to return, because the game is for the wrong system and I already have an IPod shuffle from my mom for my birthday.

During my Christmas break I went to a hotel with my mom and the rest of my family. After a while, a bunch of families started to arrive. The Jelens, the Durffeys, the Petersons, the Kings, and the Kamraths. We all had a really good time especially when Kyler, Jamison, and I were playing catch with a football. Kyler and I started to play then my brother joined, and he has really bad aim, so he threw it and I had to block it so this lady wouldn’t get smoked in the head. JH/6G

For my Christmas I spent time with family and relatives by giving and receiving gifts. I even talked with my relatives a little bit, but most of all we played games like the monopoly game the Canby edition. That was the most fun. We even had teams. When I was with my dad we went to a place where all the relatives meet and talk about things like how their lives have been so far and what they plan to do in the future. After we talk we go eat. It’s kind of like a potluck where everybody brings some type of food. That’s what we did for our Christmas on my dad’s side. On my mom’s side we also bring food but this year we had it at our place so we didn’t have to really bring any food anywhere. We almost do the same thing at my dads but it’s a little different. We first talk then eat and finally at the end we talk to each other and open gifts. Well that’s what I do for my Christmas. What do you do for yours? 6G-GB

Over Christmas break I got a lot of gifts and went sledding at my friend’s house. I got I Am Legend, Wall-e, Chronicles of Narnia Prince Caspian, and a Wii. I Am Legend was great because Will Smith is not the only man left on earth. The Wii was fun because I am pro in bowling in wii sports.

The New Year’s party was great. We got to go swimming and go down the big blue slide. Play DS all night long. Play spoons again and again. We were with the Jelens, Bursacks, Vandersyns, and Doug and Betty. We stayed up till 1:00 AM.
