Our Little Family Traditions

Ever since I can remember we have spent Christmas Eve with Mom’s entire family, grandma & grandpa, aunts & uncles, cousins..everyone around eating, talking, laughing..pure chaos, I know, but I absolutely love it! But this Christmas Eve..it SNOWED, and it SNOWED, and it SNOWED..very disappointing. Yes, you are all probably thinking, how can snow on Christmas Eve be disappointing..it’s PERFECT, this is what everyone wishes for..a WHITE CHRISTMAS! Normally I would agree, but not this year, oh no, it meant no Christmas Eve party with my noisy, crazy family. After Garth told me that snowed equaled no traveling I became a little irrational, with tears in my eyes I decided then and there it was time to move out of Logan, and this is when Garth had to remind me that we now have our own little family and it was time for us to make our own family traditions (sometimes he can be soo smart)! I’m still not convinced that being surrounded by my family on Christmas Eve is a tradition I’m willing to give up, not quite yet anyway, but I also know that I am looking forward to starting a lot of new traditions with my own little family.
