  2. Sorry, I forgot to add my holiday tradition (so I canceled my post above). First off I have to say WOW this year has FLOWN by. Can you believe we have all been doing this for a year already?! Secondly, my favorite holiday tradition is opening at least one gift on Christmas eve with my family here at home and spending time with my parents at their home (which seems so far, far away this time of year). :) Kel

  6. Every year I look forward to getting my initial made of chocolate. This is actually a Dutch tradition and my parents carried it on here in Canada. When I got married, I also got one for my hubby and when the kids arrived they each got one too. I have you on my google reader and am also following your blog and will post a comment on my blog.

  7. Hello! I think my favorite holiday tradition is wrapping gifts with my mom. We have some wine and gab away while my dad and the boy take the kids off for a few hours. Since my kids were born it seems that my mom and I haven't had a whole lot of that special one-on-one mother-daughter time, but every year for gift wrapping we catch up on everything and I remember why she is not only my mom but my best friend! :)

  12. Ohhhh, I can't hardly believe that you have had your blog for only 1 year!! It feels like it has been forever!! Okay, my favorite holiday tradition is going out "hunting" for our christmas tree! We get a permit and drive out into the back country...and tromp around the snow looking for the perfect tree (like Chevy Chase!!) and we always bring a picnic. Sometimes it is fancy and sometimes it is just good ole peanut butter sandwiches ... but they taste absolutely awesome out there in the woods!!

  18. My fave tradition.....so many of them, love it all but as it is almost trimming the tree time, I guess at the moment it will be that. Always the weekend nearest to Dec 1st I put trees in the childrens bedrooms, they decorate them with their own collection of ornaments, many were gifts from their godmother. We also decorate the tree in the sitting room and we play christmas music to add to the festive feel. It really is the beginning of christmas for us and we love it!

    Congrats on your blogaversary my friend!

  19. Hi there, I just saw your blog link on Kelly's blog. Congratulations on your blogaversary!!! What a great idea to have people share their favorite holiday tradition! I've enjoyed reading each one of them! My favorite Christmas tradition is sleeping in the family room with my DS with the Christmas tree lights on. It just amazes him that he never hears Santa come and go!!!

  32. I hope I'm not too late.

    Our family tradition is, on Christmas eve. we gather around our tree with our three girls and my DH will read a story on Christ's birth or a Christmas poem titled "The Night Before Jesus Came...". Then we'll each take turns sharing one thing that we are most grateful for, before the opening of presents. Following on Christmas day, we will gather with family members & friends and celebrate Christ's birthday with cake, singing "Happy Birthday Jesus", pot luck, gift exchange, and Christmas carols.

    Happy Blogaversary and I have linked your candy on my sidebar.
