After Mass is over we head to the local pizza joint and pickup our pre arranged pizza and head home. We started this pizza tradition long ago when our children were small. Somethings are better left the way they were intended in out house.... <br />BroncoMom.is.ann@gmail.comBroncoMomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11702267283331662045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452129936503893768.post-57138881920016647122009-12-13T15:22:26.935-06:002009-12-13T15:22:26.935-06:00My favorite tradition is pulling out my recipe books and baking and cooking.

We return to the same farm every year to search for a tree then warm up with hot chocolate in the cabin that doubles as gift shop in the winter. After the tree is up my younger sister and I put up the ornaments and as well as the other Christmas decorations and finish by watching an old Christmas movie with the family. Even as a college student it&#39;s a tradition I&#39;ve been able to continue, which is the best part about it.Tipsymadrashttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16310770998668579070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452129936503893768.post-1029186941483844952009-12-12T21:05:13.509-06:002009-12-12T21:05:13.509-06:00Love the Lilly ornaments.

We celebrate Christmas with lots of traditions, but the one my children love the most is having English &quot;crackers&quot; with our Christmas morning breakfast. We all wear the silly paper crowns and ask each other the riddles. I usually find boxes of the &quot;crackers&quot; at T.J. Maxx, but maybe Lilly would like to do some in a signature holiday print! That would be so fun!Town and Country Momhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00842299632895569707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452129936503893768.post-23020771915927727252009-12-12T17:00:31.336-06:002009-12-12T17:00:31.336-06:00We go to waffle house!! how fun!! i&#39;ve always wanted a lilly ornament!EKMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13118985231465893505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8452129936503893768.post-58902308601691510572009-12-12T16:44:59.576-06:002009-12-12T16:44:59.576-06:00Oh what a fabulous giveaway!!
