The Best Christmas Present
What was yours?
Mine was a roll of Scotch tape, sour punch straws and a Milky Way bar. (see boys, not every woman is hard to shop for ) |

Our first Christmas together, Chris got me "Proficient Motorcycling," a pair of riding gloves, and a G.C. to take my MSF class.
(I'd say he did rather well in those selections... ) |

The best Christmas present? I don't remember... Seriously.
Oh wait.. Now I remember. My Z-28 Camaro from my parents when I was 16. |

My Mom surprised me in 2002 with a week long trip in New York, just her and I. She flew in from Spokane and I flew in from Miami. We did everything tourists are supposed to do, even though she'd been there a million times.
We took in a few Broadway shows, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Ground Zero and a million other things. My only request for the trip was to see snow....... and boy did we see it. 3'+ worth that had fallen in one night. Manhattan was shut down. No one came in and no one went out, the bridges were closed and the streets were deserted, it was the worse storm Manhattan had seen in years, not a single car was on the road. I stood out in the middle of the street on Park Avenue and fell backwards and made a snow angel where cars would usually be gridlocked. Since my mom lived on the other side of the country, I didn't get to see her often at all and when she passed last November and I flew out to Oregon to help with arrangements, there was snow on the ground. It was only a few days after Thanksgiving but I knew it was an early Christmas present from her. Last night I was walking through the mall and I found a silver snowflake charm on a chain at JC Penny and knew I had to buy it........ just for Mom because I knew she would have bought it for me if she was still here. She's still giving me little gifts even though I bought it.
