Holiday Traditions


Hey dolls,
Today is day 2 of Amber and Neely's Fabulous Holiday blog challenge!!

We're talking about holiday traditions. 
Growing up we would have Christmas Eve Dinner with friends and family kind of like how you would have dinner on Christmas day. At midnight we would be allowed to open presents! I always believed in Santa but I guess my parents just did things differently. I didn't mind =) We also watch Christmas movies and go every year to see the Christmas lights at the Seneca State Creek Park.  

Since, I had Little Miss I decided to do things differently with her. So, now we have Christmas eve dinner but we can only open up 1 present. Santa comes and visits when she goes to bed. We also read "T'was the night before Christmas" and leave Santa cookies and milk =) We have a BIG ihop style breakfast and open up presents Christmas morning!! We still go and see the Christmas lights at the state park. I'm thinking of taking her to see The Nutcracker this year but that's still undecided.... We also visit Santa for pictures!!

xoxo
