My immediate family had two girls, and so do I. One tradition we always had was getting a special dress for Easter time. We also usually got clothes at Christmas.

I made sure my two girls had special velvet dresses their first Christmas. They KNOW they have to wear a dress on Easter, but I do let them help pick it out.

Other traditions:
family Christmas cooking making (sugar cookies everyone gets to decorate!)
getting our pet dogs to speak to us (row-row, mama, etc.)
never buying school lunch, always taking it
watching the Oscars!!
eating chips and dip on New Year's Eve
always having Thanksgiving together that includes green bean casserole
trying never to turn away kids with fundraisers at the front door
praying at bedtime and dinner
