The other day we were talking about traditions that take place in our household in December.
Joe shared about his sister's birthdays.
Kylie shared about celebrating Hannukah.
We heard about bird nests in Christmas trees and other fun things we do in December to celebrate.

In my family we have a few December Traditions. We always have a big "Trim the Tree" Party where family and friends come over for dinner and then to help us decorate the Christmas Tree. We always get new Christmas Pajamas on Christmas Eve and stay in them ALL DAY LONG on Christmas Day! We also celebrate my brother, Dylan's birthday! This year we will be in Disney World on his birthday in his favorite park- Animal Kingdom. I can't wait!

Can't wait to hear about it!

DeleteWe have everybody come over to someones house(this year my house)and we bake cinnamon cookies,red velvet cupcakes with a "welcome home !!!!!!" on it,last but not least a nice big merry Christmas!!! vanilla and chocolate cake and everything is so yummy!!!!!
DeleteI celebrate Christmas in December,and my traditions are every year all my cousins,Aunts,and Uncles come to Grandma and Grandpa´s house and eat thirteen different kind of fish stuff and open our presents and for dessert we smash a ginger bread house with our fist/hand and of course me the almost only girl in the Gallagher family get to go first it´s so much fun! I also do another tradition and it is simular to yours because we look under our pillows on Christmas Eve morning and stay in them all day even if we go to stores! Christmas is so much fun!
ReplyDeleteDo you wear your pajamas all day on Christmas Day too? It's such a comfy way to celebrate the holiday. Do you make the Gingerbread House yourself or does someone else?
DeleteI do the same thing Abby my family and friends and cook all different kinds of fish.
DeleteWell my cousins on the Gallagher side make the ginger bread houses but my cousins on the Murphy side we make it homemade because my great aunt makes the ginger bread pices and homemade frosting and we buy the candy and decorate at my house. Ogh and yes on Christmas we were our pj's all day but since I said we go to Grandma's and Grandpa's we do have to get dressed up and I forgot to say that at Grandma and Grandpa's we do track down Santa!
DeleteLast year i tracked down SANTA it was fun!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteYay it is really fun when I do it with my cousins cause the place santa is in we sometimes try to speak that lauguge
DeleteI watch rain dear in the north pole from a canera.
DeleteOne of my Christmas traditions is opening all of our presents on Christmas Eve. This is a German Christmas tradition we got from my Grandma Oma she is from Germany. So, we continued the tradition. when we wake up on Christmas Eve morning we get our stocking and see what we got. In December we always bake some Christmas cookies and make chocolates. We usually stay in our pajamas all day. We decorate our Christmas tree in December. Ever year me and my sister and our parents go to a store and buy things for kids that don't have a lot. We put them in boxes and drop them off at a church that sends them to the kids.
ReplyDeleteIt is great that you and your family spread some Christmas cheer to those who are less fortunate. It is a great way to celebrate the holidays. It is also great that you keep your Oma's tradition alive!
