Darth Vader's Christmas In a galaxy far, far away Darth Vader was watching TV when Commander Cody walked in. Commander Cody said, "Time to open presents." Then Commander Cody left. When Darth Vader came to the hanger Cad Bane, R-2 Dee-two and Luke Skywalker yelled, "Merry Christmas." After everybody had opened their presents they went back to their room to play with their toys. Darth Vader got a new light saber, a new cape and a flat screen TV. Darth Vader went to his room, but before he knew it Commander Cody was telling him it was time to eat. Darth Vader asked, "What was there to eat?" Commander Cody said, "Ham and a light saber pie." Darth Vader said, "Mmmmm." During dinner Darth Vader said, "We should play Destroy the Clone." Cad Bane said, "Sure let's go." Before he knew it they were playing Destroy the Clone. When they walked around the corner and saw Ben Kenobi waiting for them. Ben Kenobi said, "Hello Darth may I join your game of Destroy the Clone?" Darth Vader said, "Ok." So they all went and played Destroy the Clone. When they were playing Destroy the Clone the battle started in space. So Darth Vader went back to the hanger and got his tie-fighter and escaped the huge mess. He flew right towards Corasont. When he got there Luke was already there. Luke convinced Darth Vader to turn back to the good side. Well, this is Darth Vader's Christmas. I told you about opening presents, eating ham and cake, playing Destroy the Clone and the battle in space. Cason Nichols

Santa Claus I have never seen Santa before but I have read stories about him. I Most of them say he has rosy checks and a red nose. On Christmas I always leave cookies and milk for him on the table. The stories also say that he wears a red suit and black boots. The coolest thing about Santa is his laugh. Also, Santa has a white beard. I think Santa is cool because he gives all the kids presents and I think that is really nice of him to take his time that, but he couldn't do that without his reindeer. Oh yea that reminds me this year I am going to put carrots on the plate for the reindeer. I always wonder what the sleigh looks like. Maybe this year I can write a note to Santa that says take a picture of the sleigh, so I can see what it looks like. Therefore have a merry Christmas HO! HO! HO! Kirsten Miller

Four Wheeling in the Snow I called my friends to see if they wanted to go to the mountains to four wheel on snow in their Toyotas. We got to Bluewood and then took the snowmobile trail #25. The trail goes around back to trail #26. We saw a cougar with two cubs and also two deer. I did a 360 off a really big snow jump on my snowmobile. We went back to our trucks and got the ramp and drove our snowmobiles up the ramps onto our trucks. We then four wheeled down to Waitsburg where our other friends were. Finally, after picking up my friends we went to Jasper Mountain and four wheeled the rest of the day. I took them down a dangerous fire road. We also played in the snow. We had a great time!!

Celebrate Christmas I like to celebrate Christmas in many ways. I like to open presents and play with my new toys. I enjoy eating good food and treats. I like eggnog and candy canes especially the blue ones with the red stripes. One of my favorite Christmas books to read is "A Bad Kitty Christmas" I like to make up stories too. I wrote a story about a Christmas Swan named Lewis. It's about how to have a good Christmas. On Christmas Eve in my family we all get to open one gift early if we want to. We go to church on Christmas Eve, I like to listen to Christmas music. On Christmas morning we open presents. Finally, Christmas is a very important day of the year. It is important because it is about the birth of Jesus. Huntyr Clarno

The Christmas Tree Hi, my name is Alexis and I'm going to tell you a little story. On one cold snowy afternoon I decided to go to my friend's house, his name is Carlos. We asked his parents if they could take us to the mountains to go sliding. So they did when we got there we ran outside and headed for the hill. Then Carlo's mom said, Be careful!" When we got to the top of the hill Carlos said, "Last one down has to eat snow and make snow angels. "So we raced down the hill. It looked like a tie but then I hit a rook and flew up and past Carlos. I won! Carlos grabbed a handful of snow and ate it. Then he made a snow angel. We both saw two huge trees and we asked Carlos's parents if we could use those for Christmas tree. They said yes so we went back and got a saw and a truck to hold it we went back up and cut it down. A week went past and it was finally Christmas Eve. We finished decorating our house and our tree. I saw so many presents I couldn't wait I was so excited I couldn't sleep when I woke up. I ran to my living room I and I tried to find presents with my name on them. I found ten presents with my name I got an x-box, games for it, jacket, new snow shoes, a toy helicopter, gloves toy cars, pants, a bathrobe, and shirt. Finally, we all ate ginger bread cookies with milk. I didn't want Christmas to end but it was time to go to sleep. My sister and I were sad. Alexis Espana
