Christmas Traditions

Merry Christmas, friends!  Christmas is the most wonderful day of the entire year.  The whole season is such a joyous one.  The decorating, gifting, bringing joy to others, and most importantly, remembering that Jesus is the reason for the season all brings me excitement like no other holiday.  Here are a few of my favorite Christmas traditions.  I absolutely love Christmas Eve.  Each year, my family and I get dressed up and attend the candle light service at our church.  Following this, we go look at Christmas lights.  For dinner, we go to my grandparents house and eat cheese fondue.  The cheese fondue tradition has been around in my family for thirty-three years now.  On Christmas morning, we start out by opening a few presents.  My grandparents come over for the scrumptious Christmas brunch that my mother prepares (breakfast casseroles, monkey bread, french toast, etc.).  Then, we finish the present opening and enjoy the afternoon.  Christmas dinner follows.  I can’t wait to make more Christmas memories today with the ones I love so dearly.

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!  

For to us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government should be upon his shoulders: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6
