Couldn't get skis off
One day I sat down at
the table and wrote Santa
Claus a letter. I told him
I wanted skies.
Since the firthsnowfall
I dreamed of`'s'Ituing down,
the big hill behind the
barn.
On Christmas Eve all I
could think of my skis. It
was morning and I came
down stairs. I opened up
all my presents under the
tree.
In one box there were
my skis. I put them on
and.•went to practice on.
the lawn.
It was fun but I kept
falling down and I had a
' lot of bruises on me.
Sometimes I wish I would.
have gotten a toboggan.
After I had skied for a
while my mom called me
in for dinner. When I
came in I tried to get my
skies off but I couldn't.
My mom couldn't either.
That night I had to
sleep on the couch
because I couldn't get
upstairs to my own bed.
The next day my dad
finally got them off.
Now I know how big
bird on Sesame Street
feels.

THE FUNNIEST
'CHRISTMAS
On Christmas day my
mom set the dressing on
the_floor.
I thought it was for the
clog so I called him. I
thought the dog could not
get it so I threw it on him. '
He started to eat. `
My mother bent down
to get it. She asked me
why I did it.
I said, "I was feding
my horse so I could ride
hint.'• .
My mom forgave me.

THE FUNNIEST
THING
It was Christmas Eve,
and I wrote a note to
Santa, it told him he could
help 'himself to the
cookies for . him and a
carrot for each reindeer.
Then I sat it on the table
andwent to bed.
In the morning I got up
at 7:00 a.m. My mom told
me to go back to bed so I
did. I layed on my bed, in
a few minutes I must of
fell, asleep. I woke up at
8:00 a.m. I could • hear
yelling and srearrming
from down stairs. In a
minute I got my best
clothes on and went
downstairs.
lyveryl dy but- dad
was sitting\ down in front
of the tre waiting for
father and me. Dad came
down about 10 'minutes
later and said sorry. he
was late-.
We opened our presents
and I got what I wanted. I
look in my stocking and
saw something that was
very .strange.
It was a cookie with a
bite out of it, eight carrots
with teeth marks on
them. I started to laugh.
"Well," I said, - "he
couldn't of been very
hungry on his big trip".
The End.

Once upon a time there
was a cruel king.and his
mime was Herald. He
was very.cruel, he was so
cruel that he told his
soldgers to kill all .the
babies in the village.
That night god told his
men to put some blood on
the door. A week from
then, the king heard that
all of the babies were all
'killed except the ones
with the blood on the
doors.
The king heard that a
baby out of the city was
not killed, the king was
cross, he sent out all his
men. But god- punished
him, god made him ill
and the baby Jesusus was
born.

Blast off! The rocket
Titan towered thirty five
stories like a modern
monster.
It was heading for
Volcania for Christmas
celebration. It was
millions of light years
away however the
modern ship could reach
there in a month with
time.. warp. They left a
month before Christmas.
Everyone was .-bringing
presents.
It was a long and
treacherous trip for the
people were not use to
outer space. They were
overjoyed when they
arrived at Volcania.
The rocket landed near
the Dome City. Everyone
stared at the large
metropolis. The planet
was baron, mugged and
made partly of lava.
The pioneers were
greeted warmly. It was
December 24 Christmas
Eve was especially
cheerful. The Volcanian's
set up an immense, lawn
green tree.
T�Fere were blood red
lig s, sky blue lights and
sun yellow ornaments. At

)
the top was a golden
angel.
We had a small party
and tried to guess how
. many space freighters or
galactic patrols we could
see through our space
spectacles. After this we
went to sleep in our done
beds.
It was Christmas morn
and everyone was ex-
changing gifts. There
were mini -atom
smashers, transmutors,
visiphones, uniforms,
laser guns, light sabers,
utility belts, land vehicles
and laser cannons.
It was a 'very joyful
occasion. There was a
feast in the headquarters.

After the great dinner
everyone tried their
presents out. People fired
at targets, had light sabre
duels and smashed
atoms.
The Titan was
scheduled to leave in five
minutes. I gathered my
things and left. .The
rocket looked like the
apartment buildings.
As I climbed into my
seat I said good-bye to the
planet. That was my
favourite intergalactic
Christmas.
