Christmas

Christmas, children, is not a date. It is a state of mind. ~Mary Ellen Chase

Christmas With The Liles'

Paul & Sue Liles Circa 2004Welcome to the Liles Family Christmas pages.  We love Christmas time and spend the entire month of December quite actively pursuing family activities.  

Activities? What Activities???

For almost twenty years now we have taken our family and close friends  to the Candlelight Dinner Pavilion Theater for the Christmas Play.

We go to Disneyland on Christmas Eve early in the morning and stay until about 5PM and sometimes even watch the fireworks! Of course, with family and friends!

Rogers Gardens is always a must and The Five Crowns for prime rib and bell-ringers!

Huntington Harbor Cruise Of Lights is an enlightening experience.  We also like to walk through Naples and see the houses so decorated. A good Christmas Dance is also needed. 

The Christmas Story is a mandatory movie and watching Scrooge at the Orange County SCR is mandatory! Other festivities keep us hopping.  Come join the fun from Christmas 2007

Christmas' Past...

This is us at Christmas time! Our most favorite time of the year (other than summer!!) Carols and Christmas Cards are fun!

What's In This Site???

We have collected Christmas thoughts and Christmas humor. We watch all the Christmas movies and get even more romantic  and visit our friends as part of the season.  We always remember the soldiers who put their lives on the line to protect our culture and make us safe. Since 2000, we have added some of the activities to the website. Please join the fun! Don't forget the music of the season!

Christmas Quotes

"Christmas is a time when you get homesick - even when you're home." ~Carol Nelson

"I have always thought of Christmas time, when it has come round, as a good time; a kind, forgiving, charitable time; the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys". ~Charles Dickens

Best Of Christmas 2000-20xx

Best Of ChristmasCome and visit each year. For family it is a great way to see the kids grow up and remember the things we have done over the years!

"Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose." ~From the television show The Wonder Years

"We do not remember days; we remember moments." ~ Cesare Pavese, The Burning Brand

"What we remember from childhood we remember forever - permanent ghosts, stamped, inked, imprinted, eternally seen." ~ Cynthia Ozick
