Traditionally, these season, CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR are the holiest and grandest of all occasions all year round.It is the best season for family reunion. It is the time of merrymaking for it is expected that all family members should gather and enjoy the company of all the members of the family. Whoever you are, whatever you do and where ever you are you should find time to be with your family on this very SPECIAL DAY of the LORD. Oh yes I truly love this tradition of ours, for it is the time I can be with all the members of my family and all the members of the community as well.And mind you! this is the most pompous feast of the year for it is a common tradition that we serve lots of food so that we gonna have a bountiful blessings all year round, just don't forget it is the BIRTHDAY of our SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST! So enjoy the season.MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A BOUNTIFUL YEAR for each and everyone of you out there!!!

my family used to gather at my grandparent's home at christmas. since they have been gone, it became tradition to go to my parent's home. due to moving across country, and other things, this year will be the firat for all of us to be together at christmas in 4 years. the only ones that won't be ther is my s/o and my sister's husband, they both had to work. and it will be a big surprise since my family doesn't think i am coming.
