Each day between now and Christmas, I'll offer up some of my favorite memories from Christmases past with my parents, my brothers Ben and Teddy, my sister Allison, and recently Teddy's wife Tiffany. My siblings will help me out a bit, my hazy recollection will hinder me a bit, and somehow I'll embroider it all together. I'll strive to be somewhat poignant, somewhat funny, and somewhat concise, which should ensure that I achieve none of those three.
I think I'm writing this for my parents but not to my parents; I need to pretend my reader doesn't already know these stories, because otherwise it would feel like my parents are staring at me the whole time. Also, I'm totally going to link to this from Facebook.
These stories are in no particular order, except that on the first days I'll probably write the ones that seem the easiest to write. Feel free to heckle me as I go.
