What is your favorite holiday?

December 22nd. Know what day that is? That is "National Short Person Day" in your country. I am shocked that this is not your favourite... or maybe it is. What is your fave holiday @bigpaula?

It is the celebration for all you shorty munchkins. A celebration of those who cannot celebrate growing up. I think it is a pretty cool holiday. You get it all to yourself to. You must be the master of ceremonies for the parade or whatever you little folks do.

@Agape93 @emiliamazing @msputiton @blackcupcake have you seen what festivities they have for national Pauly day? I doubt fireworks. That is too grand for such a little holiday. I notice it is also close to Christmas. Do you get extra little gifts?

I now have this marked on my calendar. Though, I will be busy with an upcoming holiday and pending nuptials, I will make certain that I send a congratulatory DM to you on that day for your lack of height. To the rest of the team, mark that day down.

I do really love Thanksgiving. We host several friends and a good amount of family in our home for the holiday. It's a wonderful time to catch up and reunite with those we may not have seen all year.

Easter Sunday by a million miles. It is like Christmas only in far better weather and without the blaring in your face intensity.

To be sure, in our family growing up it was a huge holiday. My mother decorated the house. She had a little Easter village with Bunny figurines, she had a wreath on the front door with an Easter there - flowers and colored eggs and a couple of Bunny figures, and suchlike.

We would get up and look for the Easter baskets that the Bunny had hidden. These had always been hand made by my mother and were wrapped in colored celophane with a big chocolate bunny in the center - in the Bicentennial year of 1976, I still remember this, it was "Peter Patriot." The Bunny also brought us a few wrapped presents as well - and again these were all hidden all over the house and we hand to hunt for them.

Then we would go to church - which to be fair as little kids we were not all that keen on. Then to my mother's parent's house for brunch and --- guess what? ------ the Easter Bunny happened to have visited there and we got another smaller basket and a couple more presents.

Then after that to my Dad's parent's house where there was a huge dinner party - probably 60 or so people, friends and cousins - that would go fairly late into the evening.

On top of all that, in those days the public schools actually gave you an Easter break that ran from Good Friday through the whole week after Easter Sunday. So you got home late on Easter night but knowing that you had a whole week ahead of you to do whatever you want. The weather was finally - we lived in Michigan - turning warm after a long winter and as little kids we were out to run and play all day. When I was I high school, my friends and I would make day trips to local parks and such.

Suffice to say I have nothing but fond memories and my girlfriend and I do essentially the same things with our own children. Plus we have the extra advantage of living in the Washington, DC area so the weather is generally even better than it was in Michigan.

(We also added our own tradition of driving across the Chesapeake Bay bridge - and then back across - "breaking the seal on beach season" we call it - and then going to Annapolis to walk around and maybe take a bay cruise. Then we go to her parent's for a dinner party.)

As I say, it is all the fun of Christmas but without the blaring in your face television commercials, the lousy cold weather, and the garish colors. (I much prefer Easter pastels to Christmas primary colors.)

So as far as I am concerned we can dispense with all the other holidays. As to my kids, (ages, 11,10, and 8) I have to admit that seeing their excitement at any of the holidays warms my heart - but I still have to admit that when I think back, even to my own surprise, it is the Easters that I get the most sentimental about.

Growing up it was Halloween but these days I just stay in and watch movies or play games. Every other holiday since childhood was very lonely, watching the rest of the family go get family pictures taken, being left out of a lot. Halloween was different, my dad took all us kids out until we out grew it or until we were old enough to go with friends. I was either 8 or 9 when I started going by myself because I said I was going with friends and would get home later than everyone else, I also never had to have my candy inspected, I would take it to my room sort out what I liked, hid that and bagged up the rest to take to school just to get rid of. So Halloween is my favourite holiday but I just don't celebrate it anymore, I don't celebrate any holiday.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I like Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year's almost equally. Easter was fun when I used to go to church but once I became an adult we no longer did the cool stuff like decorate eggs or buy chocolate. Thanksgiving is fun cause of the turkey and Christmas cause of the family food and New Years cause of the goal setting.

Titanic1912 · Answer

Christmas is my favorite holiday because it’s celebrates the season of giving. It’s also celebrates the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And I always say “Merry Christmas!” I don’t say “Happy Holidays!” And don’t say, “X-mas!” If you do that, you’re “X-ing” out “Christ”. Do remove “Christ”.

It was Christmas. Cause it's so festive, pretty, and lasts a whole month. But not so much anymore. It's become too riddled with complications and loss.

JulianGronkowski · Answer

This is a tough one. I choose 4th of July, but Thanksgiving is a close second. Usually I spend the morning playing golf with my dad, and the rest of the day cooking burgers and hot dogs with the family. A lot of story telling and laughing ensues. Thanksgiving is a fabulous holiday too, but I end up feeling sleepy by 6 PM.

xJeremyx · Answer

Used to be Chinese New Year. I have a huge extended family on both sides, and that meant huge reunion dinners and lots of red packets (红包). But more than anything I enjoy the buzzing atmosphere with so many people around. However, all my grandparents are either 6 feet under or sitting at the cemetery in an ash pot.

Now, I do not really have a favourite holiday. If I were to pick one, it would be Christmas Day.

Oigit · Answer

Halloween. Because it's all about having fun and next to other holidays there isn't much pressure to it. Also I don't get roped into being around family members that I can't stand.

Even though my birthday is July 4, my favorite is Christmas. I've already got the Christmas music and movies going.

Fireguy17 · Answer

For me it is still Christmas.
Our family, then myself owned a retail business for 52 years, so our Christmases were not really normal ones, but now that I am retired, sort of, I can do all of the things that I missed out on.
