Christmas Holidays

1981-1988
"...Christmas is a holiday that we celebrate not as individuals nor as a nation, but as a human family -- and not merely as a family living in this age and time, but as a family linked through history, in ways we still cannot fully comprehend, to that First Christmas in Bethlehem."
--Message on the Observance of Christmas, December 11, 1986
The Reagan Library collection contains gifts given to President and Mrs. Reagan as Christmas gifts, as well as Christmas ornaments and other decorations used in the White House.
