For me, Christmas always began in the middle of the cold, windy month of November．My sister Alice and I sat down in front of the fire and wrote a  1  to Father Christmas, telling him about all the presents we  2 ．We carefully posted the letter to “Father Christmas, the North Pole”…

     Christmas Eve came．The whole family helped to  3  the house, put up the Christmas tree and blow up the balloons．Then, in the afternoon．When Aunt Kate and my two cousins arrived．4  was ready．Before we went to bed, we left some wine and meat for Father Christmas and then put our  5  at the end of our beds．We tried to keep  6  as long as possible to see Father Christmas, but the next thing we knew it was  7  —Christmas morning!

     We couldn’t wait to  8  the stocking．It was now full of all kinds of small presents and sweets．Christmas morning was bright and sunny．After going to church, my cousin David and I went out into the garden to  9  our new presents．Lunch was always late, but what a lunch! Delicious turkey with all the vegetables followed by fruit and ice creams．

       10  lunch, Father, Mother and Aunt rested on the sofas in front of the Queen’s speech on TV．We took out the toys, put on the funny paper hats, laughed at the jokes and played 11 ．Then came the afternoon tea and a large  12  cake covered with snowmen．It didn’t seem possible, 13  we still went on eating．By bedtime all of us children were very_14__．As soon as Mom  15  the light, we all tell into a deep sleep．
