Mike and the boys thought on Christmas

Well I am back with another installment of a Christmas memory. I asked Aryan what his favorite Christmas was and he didn't have an answer but does enjoy having his nieces and nephews around. This happened in 2014 and at that time he only had one nephew. David didn't have a favorite Christmas either. He will remember when he gets old enough and reflects back.
Mike says he doesn't have a favorite Christmas but gave me a few memories from his growing up years so I will tell you those.
He always remembers going to his Grandma Payne's house on Christmas Eve and having a big family get together. They would have a big family dinner and open presents from the rest of the family. He can't remember what he received but most of the items were handmade.
One Christmas he remembers most was the Christmas he wanted a bow really bad. They were expensive as they are now. His mom found one on sale so pick it up for him. He came out on Christmas morning and saw this bow under the tree. He was so excited and started stringing it up. Then trying it out and realizing it didn't feel right in his hands. Comes to find out his mom bought a  left handed bow for him. He was a little disappointed because he wasn't able to shot it. He never did tell me if they were able to exchange it or not.
He also enjoys having family around for the holidays. He usually ends up having to work on Christmas so we rearrange how we celebrate. This year he gets off at 5:30am and will be home by 6am. He will sleep a little and then we will start our day.
Until next time enjoy your day.
