Our family reads scripture and lights a candle on our advent wreath every night in December - love this tradition!

i enjoy so many traditions this time of year but my favorite is loading everyone up in the car and driving around to see the beautiful lights and decorations on the houses. The kids faces light up and it warms my heart to see how bright with excitement they are. We sing to Christmas music and drink hot coco. So much fun!

my favorite tradition is buying the annual tree ornament... I believe it's bad luck not to have at least one new ornament on the tree a year... so I get a family ornament from the same company every year with the year on it... and I also started getting an ornament for my kiddo each year.

Love the canvas wraps & headbands
happy holidays

My favorite December tradition is watching Polar Express. The movie reminds us to believe.

Loved reading people's favorite traditions. I love having the lights turned on on the tree whenever I am home. I like giving my kids Christmas pj's on Christmas Eve so they look cute and coordinated on Christmas morning. I like picking wrapping paper and having the packages wrapped and under the tree. Watching Christmas specials, seeing Christmas lights as we drive but most of all I like getting together with my extended family.

I grew up in a small Mississippi town where Santa rides around on the fire truck on Christmas Eve passing along good wishes over the microphone. If you bribe the firemen with hot chocolate, Santa will come at a time certain and even call out names over the speaker. The kids go crazy! It is a tradition that I talk about all year! This year is especially exciting as it will be the first for our baby girl. I can't wait to hear Santa call out her name!

picking out our christmas tree and decorating it while watching a christmas movie

My favorite tradition as of two years ago is Dazzle the Elf that shows up December 1st and watches over my kids until the 24th, reporting to Santa each night! What a difference that little Elf has made!!!

We started a new tradition with my husband's family to get together with my family and sing carols and decorate cookies. So fun for my little ones!

One of my favorite traditions is our advent calendar. It's made from ribbon, clothespins, and socks that that belong to my kids and myself. The socks range in size from newborn to adult in various shapes and colors. My kids get so excited over the tradition of it, seeing their baby socks compared to their bigger ones, and being able to alternate who gets to take down a sock each day and collect their goodie. Believe me...no one forgets when it's their turn. :o)

I love to pick our Christmas tree out. We have to look for the perfect tree each year!

Playing the piano duet, "Sleigh Ride" with members of my family. Someone in the family will starting vamping the introduction and then it is a race to the piano to play the other part. Hooray for having a whole family of pianists!

reading Christmas at the LIttle Zoo. It was my book as a child, I've read it to my two (now grown) sons, and I hope to eventually have a grandchild on my lap and continue the tradition. I always cry, but they are the good tears.

We have a little truck with 24 tiny drawers and each morning, I put a little "something" - a treat, handwritten note, silly gift in the drawer for the day. My daughter, Schuyler, gets up every morning and asks "Can I go see what's in the truck?" Her enthusiasm is magical! This year, I am including a picture of the goody in my December Daily!

i think my fave tradition is going to the Christmas tree farm & hunting for our tree & having it cut! I just love ding that :) love having a fresh cut tree! love the family time & the yummy smells of the tree :)

my favorite tradition is new to us this year. does that count? :) we started an advent calendar to do with our 3 year old daughter. we have something special to do together that is Christmas related until the big day. she loves it and so do i!

My favorite recent tradition is taking my girls (21 and 15 yrs old) over to their grandmother's house to help put up the tree and decorate it. We put Christmas music on and the girls sing and Mom basks in the Joy of having her girls with her for the afternoon.

Making Potica Bread is a family tradition in my house. It started with my Grandma, and my Mom, sister, niece and I still make it together. And it tastes wonderful! Thank you for the opportunity!

My favorite tradition is picking out and giving my kids their Christmas pajamas. I know they probably aren't too excited but I hope they appreciate and remember it when they have kids of their own.
