Do you know how many day’s are left before the big day ? Well let me inform you not enough if you are a person that leaves everything to the last-minute! I just took out my calendar book and counted out the days and guess what, I scared myself into a frightful frenzy, 38 day’s left before Christmas Day EEK ! Until you sit down and count you really don’t realize how close it is. But do not fear common sense is here
Do we really need all those large gifts and all that debt NO, do we need all the hassle and grumpiness that we see in the line ups NO. What we need is spending quality time with family and friends, having great food. Making Traditions that last generations, no amount of money can buy that?
Well the Graham Family Tradition is Christmas Eve we always have lobsters for our supper served with butter and wine then we will get ready for the Christmas Eve Service @ the Westport Baptist Church I sing in the Choir and looking down at my family at this time give me such Joy and Love because in reality material things can not come close to these feelings that I have at this moment! After Church we have a gathering at our home with close friends, my parents and some of Jesse’s friends they love the spread of food that is there:) My son is 20 years of age but we still read the book ” Tis The Night Before Christmas” I know what you are thinking come on enough that is a bit much, but it just isn’t Christmas until we read it, we tried going with out one year and it was like something was missing!!!
I think many kids like stability and continuity and to me that is what traditions are about don’t you think? I hope this Christmas you have the chance to build a tradition in your holiday’s , if you have one please comment I would love to hear about yours. I know this is a bit early but as I said 38days people!!! I also thought I would give you a glimpse of the Church I go to is it not beautiful
