I was thinking of starting a new tradition this year... My kids NEVER get sugar cereal except on vacation. Would it be too corny to wrap a box up for them every christmas? :)
ReplyDeleteWe make latkes and home made applesauce. The house smells oily and yummy!
ReplyDeleteEvery member of my family get pajamas made from the same fabric to wear on Christmas Eve. My children are only little - I wonder how long it will be before they protest!
ReplyDeleteGetting a stocking from 'Santa' even though I'm 24 and my brother is 21!! And the christmas day evening stuff-a-thon buffet. Nom!
ReplyDeleteOur family has a fun tradition on Christmas Eve - whoever says "Christmas Eve gift" first to you gets to open one gift under the tree. Now that most of us live far away from eachother you know when that phone rings you better answer it with "christmas eve gift" so you can get the jump on the family!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Christmas tradition is making breakfast pizza to eat after we open presents!
ReplyDeleteIt's Dungeness crab season in the SF Bay area, so we have a big crab feed for Christmas dinner!
ReplyDeleteWe make homemade chocolate candies that have a yummy powdered sugar/butter/nut type center, roll it in a ball and dip in chocolate. Yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteWatching holiday movies all cuddled on the couch :)
ReplyDeleteEvery Christmas morning I make cinnamon rolls for breakfast. They are super easy and sooooo yummy! My ds even put "cinnamon rolls" on his Christmas list this year!
ReplyDeleteEvery christmas day, we watch our home movies from the past year- so fun to see how the kids have grown!
ReplyDeleteI loved to spend Christmas eves at my grandparents house. The whole famili was comming. Those are the most magical memories... Thank you for the chance to win :)
ReplyDeleteWe have a house nisse (gnome) that visits every year. The idea came from the book Gnomes by Wil Huygen when my brother and I were children.

ReplyDeleteWe always read the Christmas story and thing sing Christmas carols before opening gifts.
ReplyDeleteWe love making Christmas Chocolates each year :)
ReplyDeleteWow, beautiful giveaway.
ReplyDeleteAt our house, we have an "indoor snowball fight" every Christmas. We head to the basement, bundle up in our best outdoor gear, build forts at either end of the room, and throw giant marshmallows at one another. Loads of fun, and a great way to burn off that extra energy they have from being trapped inside all day during the cold-weather months.
Thanks so much, and have a great giveaway week!
we love dinner and church all together on christmas ever
ReplyDeleteI hang up the kids' stockings in *my* room. Then, at a reasonable time (like, not 5am!) they all pile into bed with me to open them. It's a favourite tradition with all the kids, even though they're now 21, 19 and 18!!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and I set aside one day of the week before Christmas (we both work outside the home) to take off and make Christmas cookies together for family and friends.
ReplyDeleteNow she has two sons (2 and 6) who have started getting in on the action! We have such fun and it's great bonding time.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
What a great giveaway! Thank you for the chance.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite holiday traditions is our family celebration of the Winter Solstice: we make bird feeders with pine cones, we bake a cake, we light a candle and have a delicious feast for dinner.
Until us "kids" starting having babies of our own, we'd always empty out our Christmas stockings while barely awake, in our pj's, crazy hair and all, first thing Christmas morning. Even though we were all adults we made sure to at least wake super early and head to Mom's house (if we didn't sleep over) earlier than anyone really wanted to be awake. Family stockings will have to wait until Christmas dinner this year.
ReplyDeleteGreat fabrics, btw. Love the colors!
I really love cuddling with everyone on the couch, and watching TV. It's nice to have the family time.
ReplyDeleteI love our Christmas Eve family gift exchange. We have to be creative (no wish lists), so it is interesting to see what everyone gets each other.
ReplyDeleteAah, I love the fabric!
ReplyDeleteI really love going caroling on Christmas Eve!

ReplyDeleteI love the advent calendar tradition!
ReplyDeleteOur Christmas tradition is that Dad makes a full cooked breakfast on Christmas morning - its fantastic, especially as most of the rest of the food for the day is cold given that Christmas in NZ is in the middle of summer!
ReplyDeleteOne of our family traditions is to drive around, drinking hot chocolate in the car, listening to Christmas music and looking at lights. We've been doing it for as long as I can remember.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite family traditions is making a nice warm Sugar Crumb Coffee Cake on Christmas morning!
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who I've known since I was born. Every Christmas, her family put on a party and carol-singing night - where we all gather round the piano with candles and sing.
ReplyDeleteThe tradition was always that the kids had to sing the first verse of "Away in a Manger" on their own - but as we "kids" have gotten older, the rule changes - first it was "still in high school", then "still in college", then "under thirty". Now it's "anyone who has ever been a kid at one of these parties".

ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the ornament exchange. We wrap an ornament and put them a in a pile. Everyone draws for numbers and that is the picking order. The first person picks one and opens it. The second picks an ornament and can then, before opening, trade with person #1 or choose to keep theirs and open. The third can choose person #1 or #2 or stay with theirs and so on and so forth. We do this at the extended family party and we usually have 25+ people/ornaments. The cute ones always trade hands a lot before the end lol
