    Decorating the tree for my momma when she got where she couldn’t do it anymore.

    The book, Glitterville, looks great and creative enough to start a whole new tradition. The one tradition from my family is to share a Christmas Eve meal, especially like that of “The Feast of the Seven Fishes”. Such a special Italian tradition and yummy, too.

    Every Christmas morning before we open gifts we make hot cocoa with a candy cane as a stir stick.

    My favourite tradition is putting up the Tree with my daughter on 1st Sunday in December! We also make Gingerbread cookies

    I love absolutely everything about Christmas from finding the perfect gift to the decorations and music and movies. I love it all.

    My favorite tradition is to bake cookies with my family.

    My favorite tradition is opening stockings on Christmas Eve while listening to Christmas music and eating Santa’s cookies.

    My favorite tradition is having my son put the star on the top of the tree. I have pictures from every year and he turned 18 this year. I don’t know what I’m going to do when he leaves home next year for the United States Marine Corps.

    Growing up we never had any kind of Christmas traditions. I knew, when I started my own family it would be very different. When my children were young, I made a big deal about having a wonderful scrumptious “All out” Christmas breakfast. Now that they are older, we are still getting together, no matter what, to have “our special Christmas breakfast.” This will always be a fond memory for me.
    Thanks for letting me share, and for the chance to win that great book!

    I’m Jewish but I make Christmas ornaments and decorations for my friends.

  12. Kate Oliver says

    My favorite tradition is getting new ornaments for the tree that the kids each pick out, & I like picking out a new nutcracker each year, sometimes more than one.

  13. Ronnie G says

    My favorite Christmas tradition is the weekend after Black Friday- after we have gotten shopping out of our systems, that weekend we decorate the tree- remembering all the stories and the history of each decoration. Truly wonderful family time!

  14. Christine Miller says

    October 19, 2014 at 7:04 pm

    The afternoon my son and I decorate the tree we also spend it watching “It’s Christmas, Charlie Brown”, with lots of hot chocolate.

  15. Metta Matuschke says

    Our traditions gather in our tree – it’s filled with ornaments from when my 85 yr old mom was a little girl, to ornaments my sister & I made when we were little – which are blown eggs we decorated & we’re so amazed they’re still intact – through my children’s ornaments from PreK on up to their current adult-hood. Each year is like the first time we’ve ever seen them & we laugh through our tears as the memories fill our nights. This will be our last full family Christmas as my mom is moving several states away for twilight years. It will be hard, but the memories will always glisten on our trees.

  17. Elena Tucker says

    Aside from decorations, I love the food that we share. We make old family recipes and family favorites and take turns hosting/visiting.

    Picking a gift tag off the “Giving Tree” at the Local mall and making a Christmas for somebody who would not have a Christmas without this project.

  19. Beth Watson says

    October 20, 2014 at 11:31 am

    Ever since the kids were old enough to craft, we have made special Christmas Tree Ornaments for each member of the family. We have already begun to plan this year’s ornament!

    As a retired teacher, I think giving your child a book to read each Christmas Eve is important.. Instilling a love of reading at a young age is so easy!

    We always bake cookies from old family recipes to turn into cookie platters and go around the neighborhoods delivering the cookies and a handmade Christmas card for everyone (even the people we don’t know).

  22. Karey says

    October 20, 2014 at 4:13 pm

    My favorite tradition is making cookies with my mom and giving them to everyone we know!

  23. Sarah Tron says

    I love all the baking that my family does between Halloween & Christmas! My sister and I now have a weekend dedicated to baking as many types of Christmas cookies that we can get done in 2 days.

  24. Carmen Hartling says

    October 20, 2014 at 10:51 pm

    Our Christmas Eve tradition is having all appetizers for dinner. Everyone gets to request two or three favorites. It’s a grand buffet of munchies!

  25. Carol says

    Decorating the entire house with as many lights as I can!

  26. Robyn Madison says

    One of my favorite traditions is placing my large collection of Santas around the house

  27. Maureen says

    October 24, 2014 at 11:49 am

    One of my favorites is coming home after Midnight mass and making a batch of warm cookies for “Santa”.

  28. Catherine says

    October 28, 2014 at 2:04 pm

    My favorite tradition is decorating the trees as a family – listening to Christmas music, sipping hot cocoa and reminiscing about each ornament as it comes out of the bosx
