Christmas traditions

Everyone has their traditions, some weird, some wonderful.  Hopefully, our family falls somewhere in between.

Tonight we will have a family dinner and then decorate the tree, while listening to A Christmas Carol narrated by Patrick Stewart.  This tradition started when we lived in Chicago and watched Star Trek:TNG regularly.  Someone gave us the cassettes of this (I know this dates us) and then when online shopping became the rage and cassette tapes stopped working, we finally found it on CD.  So, now we listen to that each year while decorating. 

Another tradition is to make a cookie for each member of the family during the month of December.  Anna chose sugar cookies, Klara (Gabriel's girlfriend) chose snickerdoodles, Gabriel wants cornulete, Marian wants gingersnaps, and Bogdan has yet to determine what he wants.

Blessings of the season and celebrate those Christmas traditions!
