Kids talk back

The Daily Pilot asked students at Adams School in Costa Mesa: What are

you going to do for the holidays?

We’re gonna go to my grandma’s house in Connecticut. We’ve done that

every year since I was 6 months old. So I’ve never spent a Christmas at

home.

-- MIKEY MORLEY, 10

Costa Mesa

I am not going anywhere special for the holidays. I’m just staying at

home.

-- JOE LUDLOW, 10

Costa Mesa

First, I’m gonna wake up, have my breakfast and then go open my

presents under the tree. And on Christmas Eve, we’re gonna pack up to go

to our cousins, and then we’re gonna stay there for a couple days, and

we’re gonna open some presents there also, and then after maybe three

days we’re gonna go back.-- ERIC ESSEN, 10

Costa Mesa

I’m gonna go with my mom to Arizona to see our family up there -- my

grandma, grandpa and cousins. We’re gonna hang out and open presents. And

most of the time on New Year’s we do something. Last year we went to an

amusement park.

-- JADE NOVOTCHIN, 10

Costa Mesa

I’m gonna go to my uncle’s house and open presents there, and then I’m

gonna go to my aunt’s house and open my presents there. We’re gonna make

a little fiesta and eat tamales, posoles, enchiladas, menudo and carne

asada and tacos, and then I’m gonna go back to my home and leave some

cookies for Santa and milk, and then I’m gonna go to sleep, and when I

wake up I’m gonna go open my presents.
