Welcome Christmas and New Year's Eve 2019!

_Elsa_

A hearty welcome to all King game players!  Christmas holds a different meaning to one and all.  Some countries have traditional cultures.  Many celebrate it as a religious holiday.  Yet, some might not celebrate it at all.  I created a Christmas story that you might enjoy reading here.   

 

Let’s hear from all of you!  Please let us know whether you celebrate this holiday and how.  My family never celebrated this holiday, but once my children were born we celebrated in our own way.  So, I would love to hear how you and your family celebrated it as you were growing up, or how you and your family celebrate it now.

 

Before closing this message, I would like to offer a link to help you find your way around the community.  Let's learn more about the King community!

 

Also, please make sure to check out the Contest Area for a chance to win gold bars!   You can check if your game is running any current contests, as well as the community contests (General).

Hi @QueenB, I never celebrated Christmas as a child so I think I am making up for it this year.  Do you have a favorite Christmas memory that you would like to share with us?

I will give you one of my favorite memories.  Since my family never celebrated the holiday when I was growing up when my children came I wanted to give them an idea of what it felt like with Santa Claus.  One year I wrapped 2 gifts and left them outside the back door.  I opened the door and said to the kids "What is this?  It looks like Santa left you gifts!"  They were so excited that Santa could include them in a holiday that we couldn't celebrate,.

Awe, that's nice 😍

My best memory was having time off from school so me and my friends used to walk around the neighborhood and build a snowman on peoples lawn, we made some ready ugly ones and our mothers used to get complains 😜😹 

We used to spend the whole day out and just playing on the snow and the best part was coming home and taking a nice hot shower and drink chocolate milk snuggle on the sofa until my mother was done yelling at me for making a mess on people lawn... I missed that 🤪

Thanks for sharing @QueenB!  That is so sweet of you to build snowmen on your neighbor's lawns.  Too bad you didn't take pictures because that would be cool to look back at them now.  I grew up in Montreal/Canada and we had a lot of snow!  I remember taking pictures of my kids when we visited my mother and the mound of snow on the front lawn was like a mountain.

@Elsa I love how much effort you put to give your children what you lacked in your childhood ❤️ If I ever have a child, I will remember you and do just the same 🤗

@QueenB it seems like someone was a naughty kid 🙈

I felt like a child again celebrating with my children.

QueenB

@firebombmarkus, I was a handful yeah 😏

@QueenB I wish I was a child with you and we could have done those together.
