Grandma and grandpa come early in the morning and we have our Christmas tree cinnamon rolls (big cinnamon rolls positioned like a tree worth a candy bar for the trunk).

I buy a new ornament for each person in the house every year because when I started celebrating Christmas I had no decorations. 11 years later....you should see the tree now and all the ornaments are special. When my daughter grows up and leaves the house it is my plan to send her ornaments with her so that she does not start from nothing like I did. When my daughter was little I always made a birthday cake for Jesus. I would tell her the story of Jesus. I'm not Christian now so I make Pineapple Upside Down Cake and tell her The night before Christmas instead.We burn a Yule Log and I make a Yule Log for eating along with a Solstice dinner either Dec 21/22. For Christmas Eve we have either Mexican or Italian for dinner. Only 1 present gets opened. Christmas day we open presents and have another big dinner. I guess mostly we eat A LOT.

One very special thing is that this nativity is one I grew up with (and miraculously, all pieces are still intact) so it has even more meaning to me.Suellen Roleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09347192521634583340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-70455067463865907112012-12-17T20:34:13.360-06:002012-12-17T20:34:13.360-06:00I love how Christmas traditons are so important to...I love how Christmas traditons are so important to a family ... ours include the Bible reading as well - and new jammies on Christmas Eve too! :) <br />Miriam has her own nativity set this year (a playmobil one) - and she is entralled with the "Butterfly" (angel) who watches over Baby Jesus.
