Simplicity in Tradition

I have always found the simplest things to be the most enjoyable.


For instance holidays, With me being a newlywed and having both family's so close I'm lucky. Now you may think that there is a internal fight as to who's parents get to see us for Christmas like you see in the movies, but that's not so. It has always been and will always be, we go to my Husbands parents a week before Christmas for a caroling party, then Christmas eve for family time, gifts and have salmon chowder. Christmas morning is for, us with waffles and sausage for breakfast. Christmas day is for my family usually with a huge family gathering and a pot luck. Then a few days latter we have dinner at My Grandfathers with the family again. This is our tradition and it works. No one feels slighted we get to spend this time for family, with all our family. That is one of the best parts of Christmas, family. I like our tradition, It makes the holiday season easy to plan.

Merry Christmas!
