We have several family traditions.

Every year after Thanksgiving we get together at my Mom's to make gingerbread houses with the kids. It started out with just my 2 boys, this year we had like 12 kids, ranging in age from 15 to 1. The teenagers liked it just as much as the little kids did.

We also get together Christmas Eve and make Christmas cookies with my Mom. Even though they don't believe in Santa, they still LOVE making cookies.

The week before Christmas we get together with my DH family (all their kids, grandkids, friends of the family, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins) and decorate the Christmas tree together. And every year his parents dance to Elvis' Blue Christmas.

My boys are 14 and 11 and they STILL look forward to doing these things every year.
