Here are my personal answers to the Holiday Wish List Meme:
-
What is your holiday wish for your family? That we giggle and laugh and snuggle and get all cozy together and really feel that awesome Christmas magic. We are in the prime Christmas magic years around here. -
What is your Christmas morning tradition? Wait for the pitter-patter of Simon's feet in the hallway. Head downstairs and get all choked up over how excited he gets that Santa has visited our house. Just thinking about adding in Anna's excitement this year is almost too much for me to handle. -
If you could ask Santa for one, completely decadent wish for yourself, what would it be? This is my most decadent dream gift at the moment: Volvo XC90.
-
How do you make the holidays special without spending any money? Listen to Christmas music via Pandora on your computer. I think one of the greatest gifts we can give our kids (and ourselves) is just spending time hanging out around the tree - playing with toys we already have, talking about the history of our ornaments, reading holiday books from the library and our own collection, chattering about Santa, etc. -
What games did you play with your family growing up? We played Monopoly, Clue and lots of Super Mario Brothers.
-
What holiday tradition have you carried on from your own childhood? Opening one present on Christmas Eve (we do PJ's here - when I was a kid it was one we picked out - usually something from a relative) and having an ornament box. My family was a little unique in that we often went together the day before (or a couple days before) Christmas and all shopped together - literally picking out our own gifts. We'd come home, put them all into a big wicker basket/chest in the living room, and then open up the chest on Christmas morning. We usually drove to downtown Seattle for the day which always made it even more special.
-
Where would you go for a Christmas-away-from-home trip? My parents will be in Hawaii this year and I'd love to be spending the holidays with them. -
Check out GameStop and tell us, what are the three top items on your GameStop Wish List this year? Simon's a big Lego WII fan and I love Mario. It would be fun to add Lego Star Wars 3: The Clone Wars or Lego Batman to our collection.

My dad was always a game person and loved surprising us with a new game at Christmas. He isn't one for sentimentality but he has not been able to let go of many of the games we played together with my brothers. I don't think that I had a favorite board game but I really remember playing cards with the whole family when I could barely get my hand around the stack that I was dealt. Thanks for nudging memories! It will make a good Christmas topic when we all gather this year!

my son and I got Family Game Night 2 at the library and would love to have it in the permanent collection and we are both Harry Potter and Lego fans so Lego Harry Potter would be on the list too.

Our favorite game of all time is Mario. We play it on the Wii and on the DS (yes, WE! I play right along with my 7 year old son! :) If we win, we'd love to get the new Lego Star Wars III and Scribblenauts.

Hmmm...I love games so it's hard to pick. I love Catch Phrase and Taboo. Pinochle is probably my favorite but hard to find someone who knows how to play!

My favorite game is World of Warcraft. Sounds odd, but I play with a group of friends and it's a great way for us to connect and enjoy time with each other since we now all live so far away from each other.
My favorite board game Risk.

Our favorite game is Yatzee - so fun to teach the kids this tradition. Don't have a Wii YET, but hopefully Santa will bring me one :)

My favorite game at the moment is "radio freeze." My 3 year old & I dance (as much as we can restrained in the car!) until one of us says "Freeze!!!" & then see what funny position we end up in.

We played Frisbee Golf on the Wii at my sister's and it was wonderful to have the whole family playing together and laughing...so the Wii and Resort Sports are on our family wish list. Thanks for the chance to win. Have a wonderful weekend.

Our favorite family game is Uno Atack. Everyone can play, because you don't have to be able to read and more than four players can play at a time. My kids also love playing "Hide & Seek" and "Hot & Cold" around the house.

My favourite game is The Sims. But I'm thinking the new kinectimals game wil be a second fave soon enough.

Just about every male in my immediate family is a gamer and the #1 game on all of their wish list is the new Call of Duty-Black Ops. I would love to be able to give this gift to each of them. What a fun time that would be...all of them gaming, giving me time to sneak off and craft...lol
