It's Holiday time. I'm done with everything but the big meal (obviously). I never liked the holidays much, I always felt it was over-hyped. But now that I have kids, I see it in an entirely different light.
The look of amazement on Grace's face when my husband put up the Christmas tree was precious.
And even though I wasn't going to do gifts, I felt that Grace should have a few things to open, and that as long as I kept it simple, all would be well.
As far as traditions go, my husband and I love Bing Crosby's voice, so we always play his Christmas music. And my fond memory is of watching the 1960's classis "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" - Can't beat the Burl Ive's soundtrack for that either! I always felt like the misfit-dentist-Elf - and Bumble is just too adorable. I hope Grace likes this classic as much as I do. I already played it for her one night and she could care less about the movie. Maybe she'll jive to some "Silver and Gold" on the soundtrack :)
What are your favorite holiday traditions?
