  1. My Christmas Family Tradition is
    To Spend the Christmas Eve with
    Our Family! Every year we choose a
    Different house to Celebrate!
    We also play “Secret Friend”
    I love my family! I am thankful
    To have them!
    Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas
    To you and your family!

  2. My Mom passed last year so we have started new holiday traditions. We spend more time with my Dad and have Thanksgiving at my sister’s house. Christmas is still kinda evolving 🙂

  3. I have to say ‘ I don’t think I could ever spend more than $25 on a tree, real or fake. I got robbed before I moved into this new place i’m at and last year was my first Christmas here . so I had to grab a real tree which I really don’t like hurting trees. I will be buying a fake tree, I don’t care if I get one at a thrift store. I won’t pay more than 25 and I like a fat tree LOLL.

  4. We always celebrate Christmas Day in the morning at my house with breakfast then go to my aunts for Christmas dinner.

  5. Our traditions have gone with the kids growing up and spreading out. We used to all gather for presents on Christmas Eve and a ham or rib roast on Christmas Day. Maybe those days will return.

  6. we always put the Christmas tree up on Black Friday; we turn on Christmas music and decorate the tree while drinking hot chocolate and singing carols

  7. Christmas gift giving can get over whelming, especially when you have a large extended family. One fun way of “giving” is to place a lottery scratch off under everyone’s plate at Christmas dinner. It doesn’t break the bank & someone usually wins at least $25.00!!

  8. Each year I take my son and we pick out a building for our mini Christmas town. When he moves out eventually, I’m going to give him all of them.

  9. My favorite holiday tradition is making Christmas cookies with my daughters! We play music and tell stories of holidays past! It’s more about the fun then the cookies, but they are good too!

  10. Candle light service every Christmas Eve to celebrate light coming into this dark world … not to condemn it but to save it! John3:17

  11. I started the matching Christmas pajamas for everyone this year. I always did matching pjs for the kids but now mommy and daddy are joinging in on the fun. I plan to extend this tradition to regular family movie nights as well.

  12. Our family loves to go to a tree farm a few weeks before Christmas to choose & cut down our Christmas tree! One of my favorite days of the year! Always fun!

  13. One of our traditions fr Christmas is to watch the Polar Express movie all together while decorating our Christmas tree. I usually have to DVR it since we lost our DVD a few years back.

  14. One of our traditions is to buy new pajamas and a movie and open it on christmas eve. We watch the movie as a family and enjoy eachother’s company.

  15. We started our own with our twins last year. We were in the NICU in 2015 so last year was our first year home as a family. I got a beautiful snowman box full of gifts in 2015. Last year we bought each baby a new pair of Xmas pajamas, a movie and a book (because too young for hot cocoa n popcorn at the time). We open this box on Xmas eve.

  16. One of my family’s traditions is to have tree gifts. These are small gifts marked from the tree. We open them before bed xmas night. It is more of a heritage thing than anything else, but most people I have encountered think it is weird. My fiances family does a find the pickle on the tree search to win a prize. I think theirs is weirder..
