I was sharing this crazy holiday story the other day and I thought it would make a funny blog post!
One Christmas Eve, as the excitment and anticipation of Santa's visit was building, my dad played a mean, evil, Scrooge-like trick. Thinking he was so clever, he pulled out a piece of cardboard and made a huge sign that said:
"Don't Stop Here, Santa! These Kids Have Been Naughty!"
After a lot of screaming and crying from us kids, and chiding from my mom, Dad brought the sign in the house just in time! Whew! I don't remember what we got that particular year, but I know that Santa did find the King Kids, despite my dad's "naughty" claims. Looks like Santa knew better!
So, now that I've stirred up these Christmases past memories, I just might have to share a few more stories. What are your fondest holiday memories?

we used to have family scripture study when we were all little and my dad would draw cartoon illustrations of the stories right in our scriptures with a black marker. then we would color them in while my mom read the stories. on christmas eve, or morning, (all i know is that is was dark out)we heard a loud thud outside the door. we opened the door to find that "santa" had dropped off a huge new crayon set for us to color in our scriptures!
