Christmas Memories Long Letter Swap [USA]

I hosted this swap back in 2011 and thought I'd have another one this year ... sounds like fun, huh?! : )

Okay, this is a long letter swap so please don't just write a page or two and be done with it but write your memories out and give lots of details ... it makes it so much more fun to read [and to write!]

This isn't just about one Christmas and also isn't just about Christmas Day - it's about the Christmas season and can be a combination of memories from childhood up to now if you want.

Is there a favorite gift you got growing up? Family traditions at Christmas-time? Maybe you were in chorus in school and have memories of the Christmas songs you sang? How about church programs at Christmas time. Did you ever sneak around and peek at your presents? [I did. ha! ha!]

The size paper I use is regular writing tablet size [I know - how boring, huh? lol] Still, what I'm trying to say is that it is around 6 X 9" size and to me, it doesn't matter if you want to use bigger paper for it but I'd like to have at least 5 pages front and back written on paper that is that size or bigger. It really shouldn't be that hard to do.

If you get stuck -- what about gifts you saw in stores or catalogs and really, really wanted but didn't get. Did you get company on Christmas Day - if so, who and was it fun because they came? Who were they? That's all I can think of to help out so hey - Just write and have fun with it!

And of course, your memories don't need to be USA only but due to the cost of postage, ya do have to live in the US to join the swap.

I will angel for this swap if necessary but hope everyone will send so I don't have to. : )

** Please make sure and clearly mark your swapbot user name somewhere and what swap it is so it'll be easy when it comes time to give your ratings for the swap.

** Please note that I have the right to ban anyone from the swap if their ratings aren't what I think they should be. It's Christmas and though I'll angel, nobody wants to get flaked on, especially this time of year, right?
