My Favourite Day

My favourite day of the year is Christmas Day. It is on the 25th of December, and it's a very exciting time. We always decorate our house with a big tree and lots of bright lights.

In the morning, my sister and I open our presents under the tree. This is my favourite part! Later, all of my family comes to our house for a big Christmas dinner. We eat turkey and delicious roast potatoes. It is a very special day because everyone is together and happy.
