Wishing you a Merry Christmas...

I hope you and your families have a very special Christmas, and enjoy old traditions, as well as making new ones!
One of the oldest traditions we have is making a "Happy Birthday Jesus" cake on Christmas, and singing happy birthday to Him. I think this was started when Wesley was born in 1997. I have photos of every year of the kids with the cake. It's a sweet way to see how they've grown through the years.
Seems like each year, there is a new tradition added...we've made "Reindeer Food" with oatmeal and glitter to attract Santa's reindeer, bought age appropriate from each of the kids to donate, made gingerbread houses, and the like...wonder what new tradition will be started this year!
What traditions does your family celebrate?
