Although his family is no longer doing this as a great family (and do great media) and that I should be preserved for our children and grandchildren. We all expect and have maintained a tradition since 1987, when our children were still very young.

Then or7 about 6 years ago we started the tradition of Father Christmas to watch the movies and drink hot chocolate before going to bed. You wake up at 6 every morning for Christmas and open our presents from each other. We just spend the day together and have some little food all day long on the table so that we can choose only this one. It 'something funny i always treasure and hope one day that passes and keep it alive with my family !!!!! So everyone enjoy the holidays and are always the best !!!!!!!!!!!!

It 'also to free my family to visit their spouses, relatives and friends.

It's something I always look forward, as it rarely eat together as a family on weekdays, even on weekends if you do not eat dinner in a restaurant. Recently, I attended a seminar of Christmas traditions in our church and that really inspired me to jumpstart another tradition that is not only fun for my family, but a significant one as well.
