My favorite Christmas ever was two years ago in 2017 when our whole family and my cousins came to a Christmas trip to Big Sky with us and it was so cool.

The next day, we all decided to go ice skating so we went there. It was hard at first, but I got used to it. And we stayed at Big Sky for five days. So we got to go ice skating every day so it was a lot of fun.

The next day, my uncle said he will take me and my cousins to the movies to watch the new “Star Wars” movie.

So when we got done, we went to go get something to eat. Then when we got back, we decided to go sledding. So we got our sleds and went sledding and me and my cousin made a speed bump and it was so fun.

When we got done, me and my cousins went to go sit in the hot tub and it was really warm. When I got out, it was so cold.

Then we went skiing on a big mountain.

My favorite holiday is Christmas and my favorite thing I got on Christmas was a Fuji film instant camera.

It takes pictures and I  took a picture of my family, but my dad was sick so that was a bummer. I live in Fort Belknap, so I took a lot of pictures.

I received other things but I love my Fuji the most. The reason why I like Christmas is because we get free presents, and if we get other presents we give the presents to other people.

The other reason I like Christmas is we get to eat with our family. When we’re done opening our presents, we play outside with them, then we go inside and warm up and watch TV. Then we go to our gramma’s house and do what we do on Christmas.

Last Christmas, one year ago, I got an Xbox 1 and a Chromebook. Those were my favorite Christmas gifts I received in my whole life.

When I got my Xbox 1, I was playing it all night and all morning. But through the day I would go sledding, and when I finished sledding I would go on my Chromebook and watch videos while I warm up.

All the gifts were from my grandma and my dad. I like the gifts because they will not make me bored when I am inside.

I asked for one gift and that was all I asked for was an Xbox 1S. My favorite games are Minecraft, Rocket League, Red Dead Redemption, Skate 3, 2K19, 2K20. I used to like Fortnite.

My favorite show is “Family Guy.”
