For example, my dad always made brandy alexanders during the holidays, so we expect it. Also, we always put on the Alvin and the Chipmunks album/tape/cd because we loved it as kids.Mo Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13644902211036445323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-62622280958497243542009-12-05T09:40:34.530-06:002009-12-05T09:40:34.530-06:00Rachel, thanks for posting the link to your articl...Rachel, thanks for posting the link to your article!

We take turns opening gifts, one at a time, and make the fun last as long as possible.<br /><br />I <em>love</em> the holidays!Lee McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03388019900085158731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-65512249638759482202009-12-04T23:43:30.242-06:002009-12-04T23:43:30.242-06:00One I enjoyed when I was a child was we entered th...One I enjoyed when I was a child was we entered the living room, where the Christmas tree was, youngest to oldest. Then we each took a turn opening a present, youngest to oldest, including the folks. You could choose one for yourself or give one to someone else. Made Christmas morning last all morning long, and you were able to see what everyone else got.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07843239483061220089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-32675235296905368732009-12-04T19:03:15.198-06:002009-12-04T19:03:15.198-06:00I don't think we have any special traditions! ...I don't think we have any special traditions!

I like that.<br /><br />We decorate and make cookies, but I think I need to find some new traditions. This year we'll be spending christmas in the snow.

The girls always pick a charity to give to.<br /><br />Thank you SO much for sharing that link, I love Lee and it was fun to read the article. Actually, the entire magazine was great, I could shop forever with what was listed, and the best part? The very handsome man on page 6 or 7 would make a totally excellent hero. Seriously, ladies, go over and look. He's scrumptious. :)Gillian Laynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15772849187702478349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-8238532563639812072009-12-04T07:35:41.107-06:002009-12-04T07:35:41.107-06:00The one tradition that's stayed unchanged is m...The one tradition that's stayed unchanged is my family's big party in the community my great-grandparents moved to early in the 20th century.<br />Sixty or eighty of us from four or five generations get together on the same weekend every year and talk and eat and talk some more. Once in a while, a kid will sing or play the trumpet. Enjoying each other's company (and trumpet solos) is a fantastic way to keep family roots alive and healthy!<br /><br />I know that Noodler Lee McKenzie has a lot of other traditions – you can read about some of them on page 12 of the current issue of Victoria Boulevard Magazine <br />(http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/Launch.aspx?referral=other&refresh=rB05F16z1yC3&PBID=76a7b1cb-432a-4b3d-9d77-25968ca9417d&skip=)<br /><br />Happy Holidays!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675627800139471971noreply@blogger.com
