My sweet mother-in-law introduced to our family saying something you're thankful for before opening a present. And my sisters and mom and I always used to decorate the tree together with Christmas music and hot cocoa late into the nate just after THanksgiving, before we all moved around.

When I was little and living in Hanover Park, a bunch of us kids in the neighborhood (including your mom, i believe) would go Christmas Caroling to all the houses....fun times!

My favorite tradition is opening a gift the night before. Or stockings. It's mainly about relaxing and spending time with family, however. Thank you for this giveaway!

This is a beautiful wreath..so unique. My favorite Christmas time tradition is getting together with my moms side of the family on Christmas Eve. My grandfather is now 91, so it is wonderful that he is there in the center of it all

Beautiful wreath, I have started working on my own...but I just keep making plain ones. I have not been able to accessorize them great!
My favorite tradition in my family is on Christmas ever my family trades off dressing up as santa there is over 50 of us in one living room, its just so special seeing the little kids reactions and joy when santa comes.

My favorite tradition is to make my own Christmas cards and mail them to close friends/family with a small hand-made gift, like candy or ornaments.

That wreath is just beautiful!!

I reposted on facebook, followed your blog and now it's time for my favorite holiday tradition to get a few entries in on the Chiefs…err…holiday wreath! Coming from a pretty large and separated family there are many to choose from, so I will just give you the first that came to mind.

My whole life, my Dad has made wheat germ cookies in the shapes of santas, Christmas trees, etc. When I was a kid I never understood how something called "wheat germ" could taste so good (it’s the frosting). We always had a great time decorating those cookies each year with frosting, red hots, and sprinkles.

To this day, my Dad still makes them each year and if I am lucky enough, I get to try my hand a decorating a few to keep the tradition alive.
