What is your favorite holiday tradition?

What are some of your favorite holiday traditions? I’m excited to see what you do and then I can get ideas to maybe add on to mine!

🎄Every year my extended family does a gingerbread competition. I love coming up with complicated designs and themes!

☃️ I love decorating the house in decorations from my childhood. It really gives me a warm and cheerful feeling to remember what Christmas was like when I was a child.

🎅🏻 After Thanksgiving, my family kicks the Christmas season off with watching the movie Elf! Nothing better then starting the season with Will Ferrel making us laugh!

🍪 Since my sisters and I have all grown up, we don’t really make Christmas cookies too much anymore. But my mother still makes the BEST peppermint bark! The store bought kind doesn’t not even come close to hers!
