What does Christmas mean to your Family?

As I count down to one the best days of the year, I am reminded why I love the holidays so much.  If you were to ask my daughter, we celebrate the day because of Jesus, if you ask my son, its about Santa and being on the nice list, for myself, it is about being with family, seeing the lights and all the decor.   I do not shop till I am broke, I do not get everything my kids ask for, but instead what I can afford and they can use.

I have a tradition, every Christmas Eve my kids get new jammies and slippers and a Christmas ornament that they hang on that night.  they love it, and look forward to it.  it is those traditions that make the holidays great.  Having supper with my parents is always a great time also.

I find these days, Christmas seems to be about the gifts and the spending, and not about things that should matter more then that.

What does Christmas mean to you? DO you even celebrate it?  There is so much mixture of thoughts on this subject.

Whatever your beliefs are, however you spend the holidays, I truly hope you enjoy them!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
