One of my favorite Christmas traditions is having a fondue dinner on Christmas night. Yum! :)

My favorite holiday tradition is sharing quality time with both family and friends. Not that I don't do this other times of year also, but it is especially meaningful to me at the holidays.

my favorite tradition is driving up the santa cruz mountains to cut down our christmas tree.

My favorite holiday tradition, I can hardly pick one! I would say that ONE favorite is the 20+ year old gift box with a Christmas print on it in our basement. It is so old and worn, and is taped up on every corner because it is literally disintegrating from age. Every year my mom tries to throw it away without us noticing, and every year one of us gets to it before she does and wraps a gift up in it. It's always a fun surprise to see who will get a present in the "Merry Christmas" gift box! :)

This is easy - favorite December tradition? Home made tamales!!
Thanks for everything, Ali -

One of my fav traditions it taking the kids to see Santa at a huge Mall in the city. The same guy has been here as long as I can remember (and was sad that he wasn't here last year, I presume due to all our Arabic National Holidays we had last December, fair dos!). Very much looking forward to going this year, I fear it will be my twins last year of "believing", so I really want to soak it all up!

We open presents on Christmas Eve.

The TREE is my favorite! Taking out each ornament and all the memories they hold...now that would be a great documentation!! (Note to self)
We get a new ornament every year - I love it, the kids love it, I love Christmas time!

Our favorite Christmas tradition is decorating our family tree...pulling out the ornaments the kids have made brings a rush of memories flowing back!

Our favorite tradition is making a gingerbread village. Gramma makes a big church, and the rest of us make houses for the street. All four kids, 17, 14, 7, and 4 make a house and personalize it with icing and candy. We create a village square surrounded by the houses, put snow on the ground, fences, gates, and trees, and of course, little people sledding and rushing home with packages. We even have Christmas lights! It really gets us all in the mood! Thanks for the chance to win...beautiful giveaways!

our favorite tradition is that every member of the family gets a new book to open on Christmas eve. It's always fun to see what is chosen for each of us, and always fun to negotiate who gets to choose - in our family of avid readers

We get all the kids together and make Gingerbread houses! Love it!

My favorite December tradition is setting up my winter decorations especially my snowman collection from Jim Shore.

My favorite Christmas tradition is the "Elf on the Shelf". We started it a couple of years ago with my son. He is now 7 and my daughter is 3. They both love to run downstairs to find Elfie the Elf. To find where he is hiding. It is a nice daily reminder to be good for Santa.

Once again you have outdone yourself on giveaways! There are so many traditions, but I think I love that we collect one ornament a year from somewhere special (and we collect one for each of our girls as well). Then every year it is so special to remember the story of each ornament and remember.

We have steak and baked potatoes after we put up the Christmas tree-my husband's idea. We got professional pictures taken for the first time since we were married almost 7 years ago and I never thought about getting a wrapped canvas, but I love the way the picture of you and baby Anna looks leaned against your mantle.

Great giveaways! One favorite tradition is the Torchlight Parade of skiers (complete with a visit from Santa and fireworks) that we watch at the base of the mountains of Colorado. All of us wear light up Rudolph noses and drink hot chocolate while watching the show by a huge bonfire. It has made for many wonderful memories over the years! Thanks for the opportunity to win!!

My favorite Christmas tradition is making a yummy breakfast for my family on Christmas morning, after we open presents and then spending part of the day watching Planet Earth together before we induldge in a homemade prime rib, Christmas dinner!

Our favorite tradition is the Saturday after Thanksgiving when we set-up our Christmas tree and get the house decorated...FUN giveaway!

Decorating the Christmas tree has always been my favorite. As a child, my other favorite was singing in the choir for midnight Mass.

I would have to say my favorite tradition is spending time with family doing special holiday things. Just went to a holiday parade this week and it was so much fun!

looking through all the ornaments and remembering where each one came from....picking out our tree...making cookies for santa...too many to choose from. those canvases are awesome! :)

I love our Christmas tradition when we spend Christmas at my parent's house. On Christmas Eve we go to church, come home and eat chili or clam chowder and other appetizers. Then my dad reads the Christmas story from the Bible. All the kids hand out the presents and then we open them. It is a wonderful night with family all together.

My favorite December tradition is Christmas eve at my parent's house. All my siblings and their families go. Santa comes during the night to deliver toys to the kid, lots of food, lots of fun!

my favorite december tradition is the santa photos at work. I get to dress up as an elf (YaY) but my favorite part is listening to the kids interact with santa. I love all the excitement!
