Home For the Holidays?
Looking back on my family's holiday traditions, I'm filled with nostalgia and happiness. I remember every detail, and my impression of holidays and family Christmas traditions is accompanied by a BIG freshly cut evergreen tree, handmade decorations, and lots of snow on the ground.
While some family traditions will remain, it is never too late to start new traditions with family and friends. This holiday season, make some new memories with family and friends. Below are some suggestions for you to incorporate into their holidays.
