    I enjoy putting a star on my head and holding a flashlight while standing in my neighbors front yard at night pretending to be a Christmas tree

    For the last 12 years my busy season at work has coincided with the holidays and i feel like my holiday spirit has almost completely dwindled during that time. However, every now and then I’ll be in someone’s home and they’re making Christmas cut out cookies and listening to Christmas music and burning candles and it transports me back to when i was growing up. My mom loved the holidays and she made them so fun and magical. It makes me sad that I’ve not given my kids the same experience. I need to change that.

    That's so amazing! And very heart warming to read! Never give up on the feeling of the holidays!

    I enjoy breaking a broomstick in half then duct taping each half to the sides of my head while prancing around my neighbors yard and yelling “I’m a reindeer”

    Baking, making gingerbread houses, wrapping presents... I love our Christmas Eve tradition of everyone getting new jammies =)

    When my kids were little I always had new Christmas jammies for them. I miss that tradition, but they will not even humor me for one night anymore.

    My favorite thing is late nights when only the lights on the tree are on. It gives me a very peaceful feeling.

    My mom kept the Christmas pj's tradition going until I was like 22 years old, which is funny because she wasn't
    "that kind of mom" in most ways. Anyway, I was 20-21 and in college and she bought us both these long matching flannel nightgowns with lacy stuff at the top. They were similar to ones we had years earlier, light blue with tiny flowers and stripes, very 80s. Months later, I was staying with her one weekend & we both had them on. We ordered pizza and the pizza delivery guy was staring at us so strangely. After we paid him and closed the door we both realized why. We probably looked nuts - like we were in some sort of Little House on the Prairie cult!!

    For Easter, we had this odd tradition growing up where we'd only eat seafood Good Friday through Easter Monday and we'd just watch movies about the life of Christ (so many versions) and the ten commandments. Not religious at all now but Easter is still my favorite holiday.
