My best Christmas memory centres around a Christmas in which my entire family decided to exchange scratch lottery tickets instead of individual gifts. Each of the 10 of us, bought $50 worth each. Most tickets were in the $2-$5. We put all the tickets in a big bag, shook them up and each took turns drawing a lottery ticket and then scratching them to see if they were winners. The whole process took about 3 hours. We laughed and teased each other and then my Grandmother (who is now passed) won $50 and you would've have thought from her excited reaction that she won $500,000. It's a bloody wonder she didn't have a heart attack on the spot! It was a better experience than any other Christmas because it was so relaxed leading up to the event and we had so much fun, laughing as a family. :)
