Our grown children still come home for the holidays and make it a point not to miss a single fun happening. We hold an annual Christmas open house for friends and family, we do a big Christmas Eve celebration complete with entertainment by the kids and fun family games like Holiday Trivia Relay, where we actually call family that is not with us for help with the answers or Santa Bingo.. you can read about our family holiday traditions at our family site Celebration Ideas Online at http://www.celebrationideasonline.com/index.html Our family holidays are steeped in tradition and it is a wonderful thing.

My girls are still young enough that they start to whine after about 10 minutes. They can stay home. :s I LOVE looking at Christmas lights. :) Planning on going with my mom, sis, and sis-in-law soon.

When we were out a few weeks ago looking at Christmas lights, we came upon a church doing a living nativity. An unexpected treat! We do this as well!

I guess maybe I'm a teeeeeny bit stressed about the holidays right now.

It's so much fun. We don't necessarily do it in our pajamas (that could get chilly!) or take a family picture, but we love driving around listening to Christmas music, drinking hot chocolate, and looking at all the festive lights. We always did this on Christmas Eve when I was a kid and it was great. We do this every year! It’s so much fun.

She had all of the cousins over for pizza & cookie decorating, then we went to look at lights in our pajamas. Now I live in the country, and there are no lights to see! Something I miss doing with our boys! We used to do this when I was little with one of my aunts.
