Why We Love Funny Christmas Stories
A lot of the time, when we think about Christmas, the first thing that comes to mind is a great laugh. Christmas and laughing go hand in hand, whether it be Santa's deep belly "Ho Ho Ho - Merry Christmas!" laugh, or the giggle of excited children ripping apart the wrapping on their Christmas presents.
So when we think of Christmas stories, naturally we gravitate towards those with humor. People love to laugh, people love stories, and with Christmas time being so lighthearted the combination of the three makes it a perfect time to share funny Christmas stories with our friends and family.
Sometimes we do that by passing along emails with funny pictures and narratives, or ebooks with funny Christmas stories. Othertimes we do it by just sharing our funny stories of past Christmases. After all, if you celebrate Christmas I'm sure you can recall at least one thing that has happened which made you laugh so hard your belly hurt!
Perhaps, these most personal stories - the stories of our own Christmases - are really the ones that we love the most. Not necessarily because they make us laugh (although that always helps), but really because they help us connect our hearts with those we care about. We find that deep human connection that is sometimes only found through the unique element of telling stories.
One story almost everybody can relate to is the movie 'A Christmas Story.' This classic Christmas movie is really a long story about knowing what our heart desires and not being afraid to express that. Whether it be the Red Rider BB Gun (see video below), or the famous 'Leg Lamp,' there's no shortage of humorous yet touching Christmas "mini" stories in this movie we all can relate to in one way or another.

- The Overeating Elf
Once there was an elf named Frez that would get so nervous during Christmas time that he would eat two lunches at the elf cafeteria.
