December 25th is my favorite day of the year because it's 
Christmas Day. My family likes celebrating Christmas 
together. We all go to my aunt's house on the 24th and we 
sleep there. On Christmas Day we get up early, because my 
cousins have small children. The children love opening 
their presents! We have eggs for breakfast. After breakfast, 
we go for a long walk. It's usually very cold, and it 
sometimes snows! I don't like walking in the snow, but the 
children love it! When we get home, we make lunch, and 
the children play with their toys. We have a big lunch, and 
then we watch a movie on TV. We like watching comedies. 
In the evening, we play games together. We go to bed very 
late and we're all very happy.
