All Decked Out in Holiday Cheer

Christmas Fun with Brian & Johnny Clarke

Get ready to jingle all the way with brothers Brian (11) and Johnny (8) Clarke, who are sharing their favorite ways to celebrate the season right here on Daniel Island! From matching Christmas pajamas and cookie skillets to ice skating adventures and laugh-out-loud gift exchanges, these two know how to make the holidays merry and bright. So grab a cup of cocoa, turn on the twinkle lights, and enjoy a peek into the Clarke boys’ festive world of fun, family, and holiday cheer!

What’s your favorite thing about the holiday season on Daniel Island? Are there any traditions or events you look forward to every year?
Brian- I love going ice skating at Credit One. It’s always so much fun, and it really feels like Christmas when we go!
Johnny- I love all the Christmas lights! I love all the Christmas parties we go to with all our friends.

The holidays are all about fun and family—what’s something special you love doing together this time of year?
Brian- The day after Thanksgiving, we always get new Christmas pajamas. Then our whole family puts them on and goes to pick out our Christmas tree together — all matching! On Christmas Eve, we have a big brunch, and all our friends and family come wearing their matching pajamas too.
Johnny- We do this funny gift exchange where everyone picks a present, and you can steal someone else’s gift if you want it. It always gets really funny!

If you could plan the ultimate Daniel Island holiday celebration, what would it look like?
Brian- parties, parties and more parties while having fun!  
Johnny- the same as what my brother said 

Do you have a favorite holiday treat or recipe that makes the season extra sweet?
Brian- My mom’s French toast casserole — we eat it every Christmas Eve morning, and it’s the best!

Johnny- Cookie skillet!

What’s the best or funniest holiday gift you’ve ever received—or given?
Brian- Gaga ball pit 
Johnny- My motorcycle! It’s my favorite gift ever!

We hope you both have the best Christmas EVER, Brian and Johnny!  Bring on the parties and FUN!
