Who has a funny holiday story they'd like to share?

It can be related to pretty much anything, family suppers, opening presents, etc… Mine’s from a few years ago. I did my shopping pretty last minute, and was looking for a gift for my Mother. I eventually settled on a pair of boots that were on sale, they were pretty nice boots. I wrapped them and put them under the tree. So the next morning we’re opening presents, and I open what I assume is one of mine. Lo and behold, there are the boots. So I’m sitting there thinking, “Oh sh!t! I just opened my Mom’s present!” And I’m just staring at them silently. Then, I hear my Mom say, “Well,do you like them?” with a mildly concerned look on her face. I clued in at that moment and realized we’d gotten each other the same present, she just hadn’t opened hers yet. Once she finally got to hers, she realized why I had reacted as such. I don’t know, I found the whole thing pretty amusing, and I kind of want to hear more stories.

Answer #1

That’s hilarious Cassie, lol…I remember one year, oh, about 25 years ago (that long, really?) my sister (12 at the time) had taken on a new fashion sense with her recent growth spurt and was all dolled up in her blue tweed coat and matching beret…we arrived at my grandmother’s house for Christmas Eve and she took one look at my sister and tried to shoo us away from the house because she thought we were Jehovah’s Witnesses, lol.

Answer #2

Haha, On Christmas day a while ago, my mum was passing a napkin over the table to my sister and it obviously got too close to the candle and set fire! She’s sitting there holding it because if she had dropped it the table would have caught fire. She has since lit fire to various ornaments 4 more times during family gatherings. We don’t use candles anymore.

Answer #3

lol! Quite the firebug, your mother

Answer #4

That’s funny! I remember when I was about 5, my grandparents hadn’t seen me in a few months and so I put my hair up in like 6 ‘water spouts’ sticking up from my head. For the whole visit they ignored me and it wasn’t until the end when they asked where Renee was, that we realized they didn’t recognize me and had thought I was a random child. Lol.
