We spend some of our Christmas holiday at my parents farm. All the extended family gathers for the day playing with new toys, hiking through the snow, hanging out, dinner and a friendly game of Euchre. And then another day, Boxing day, of sledding and perhaps some hitting some winter sales. I didn't go out to set traditions, but learned they happen naturally. My 10 year old asks to do such activities - "Can we hike through that forest to the hidden hill where no one else goes and go tobogganing" - with fond memories, which makes me realize these are important events and thus traditions.
Merry Christmas to all, and a jolly good New Year to come.
