I know there are alot of families that are all about traditions. I unfortunatey did not grow up with any traditions so I'm always trying to think of some that I can start with my husband & children. One tradition I did have was when I was married to my ex husband. Every Thanksgiving when we first woke up we would listen to Alice's Restaurant. We did this for 10 years. This year on Christmas morning we will be listening to a story/poem called Happy Birthday Jesus and I plan to do this every year on Christmas morning.
What tradition(s) do you have?

we have lots of family traditions during holidays. let's start with the 24th of december. the whole family gather together on my grandparents' house. so i have my parents there, my brother, uncle and aunts, and my cousins. we play games and talk a lot. when 12:00 comes we pray and thank the Lord for the blessing. then we eat. we exchange gifts. then we will just continue our party until we are so tired. on new year's eve. were not allowed to eat chicken. we must have at least 12 round fruits on our table. coins must be all over the place with cottons under it. and at 12:00 we get all the coins. we should also have coins on our pocket. and if we want to grow taller we must jump very high. can't think of others but i know we have lots of traditions.
