❄ What is your favorite family tradition? ❄

With the holidays right around the corner I decided to do a sort of "holiday themed" question. My prompt is what is your favorite family tradition?

For me this would have to be everything we do on Christmas day. The day always starts with me being woken up by my loud (and excited) brothers wanting to open their gifts. I walk into the den in my Christmas PJ's and all of our gifts are sitting out on the chairs. Everyone has their own section so I walk over to mine and we open up our presents and possibly get a little too excited.. (is that possible?). We snatch our stockings off the mantle and reach into them to see what we got. Before we know it the entire family is sitting down at the table having Christmas breakfast.
"Katie! Pass the breakfast casserole!"
"Shh Jack its early I'm tired!"
We enjoy out french toast casserole and biscuits and then proceed to fool around with out presents even more. Once we have calmed down a bit we usually sit and watch Christmas movies or take a little family time break. Next, we head over to my grandmothers house, open our gifts from her, and have Christmas dinner. Just thinking about all of this is making me so happy. I love the feeling of walking out of her house into the crisp air. When we drive home suddenly lights and decorations on all the houses start to blur and I find my favorite day of the year over.
I literally cant wait for Christmas this year.

  1. Katie,
    Just thinking about Christmas makes me happy too! My family tradition is eating spaghetti on Christmas Eve for dinner. Good job!

  2. Hey Katie,

    I love the way y'all have a ''section'' of presents. Your brothers must be young, or very festive about christmas. Do they believe in Santa? What do you typically ask for? Does your family go out to eat or anything? I hope you have a good Christmas this year and get everything you want.

    Love Brooke
