(logo whooshes) - Best Christmas gift I ever got was a puppy.

The most memorable Christmas gift ever was having my dad come see me from military when I was 10.

- What inspires me is baking cookies, going to my church, and praying with my friends from church and my pastor, seeing the Christmas lights, the Christmas trees here at the courthouse, that really inspires me.

- For me it's just the, you know, the holiday decorations coming up, and like, you know, the temperature starts getting colder and it's just that right temperature that just gives you like that giddiness, you know, the holiday cheer and all that stuff.

I feel like, you know, at the end of the year, and like people going away for the holidays, it feels like there's just something magical in the air during that time.

- The most important thing for me in the holidays is spending time with your family and your loved ones.

I spent five years in the military and I spent many holidays away from my family and my friends.

And so I most enjoy being able to purposely set time aside to spend time with those that you love and your family members.

- The most memorable holiday gets I've ever gotten, my uncle, Jeff Crass, had to get a heart transplants in getting to go down to the Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia in December, about 10 years ago now, it's gotta be the most memorable.

It gave him many more years with us, and we gravely miss him, but very much appreciated it.

- The best holiday gift was when I got a little puppy, and I just loved him for so many years.

The most memorable gift was a trip to Disney.

I absolutely love going to Disney World, and that was definitely very memorable.

- What inspires me during the holiday is that everybody's happy.

They have food on the table, they're around good people with good spirits, you know?

That's the basic, and that you can help somebody out or give them some food if somebody needs something because I'm just wishing everybody to have a happy holiday.
