Aloha Xmas
On a first look he definitely looked like Santa, Santa on vacation that is. My grandpa, and his full round belly, were dancing on the beach in red swim trunks. The Beach Boys Christmas Album was in playing from our deck and I was about to join him. I just changed into my classic christmas suit combo: The bottoms of my american flag swim suit and then a green halter bikini top. My green and red swim suit was perfectly accompanied with a santa hat and my freshly painted red toenails. Its March 29th and our celebration has begun. I moved to Hawaii when i was about 4 years old, I was angry to leave my home and so being the sneaky kid I was set up a deal of my cooperation. I told my dad that I would only go if I could invent another Holiday. In my small sphere of knowledge I didn't fully understand how absurd this was yet he agreed. I decided on a second Christmas, a special "party" christmas. My mom would make green shots of lime juice for me, my dad, and grandpa to take. And the activities continued. Ever since its been a tradition that is never skipped or forgotten. "Real" Christmas, in our family, is all about seeing other family, we usually travel to my aunts house in Ohio and have a white, snowy, freezing cold christmas. Thats why march 30th christmas is so special. We party on here in Maui at the beach in green and red swimsuits and play games. Tonight before we fall asleep my mom and I will make a coconut smoothie for "santa", who in our family, is actually known as granpa. I cant wait for it all to start, i love aloha xmas.
