In my family, we have many traditions. On Christmas Eve we go to my cousins and track down Santa and see where he is. If he is close it’s time to go home and go to bed. When we wake up if it is realy early like 6:30 we have to wait until 7:00 or 7:30. My dad gets the video camera out and then we open the stocking’s and then the present’s and then my family comes and has breakfast. Then that day we go to my Gramas and have dinner and open present’s and that is what I do.

On Christmas eve, my family has a tradition of opening one present. On Christmas morning after we open presents we mix champagne and orange juice and drink it. In the afternoon me and my family go to my uncle’s house and have lunch there. Then after dinner we roast and eat our turkey. We also have a tradition of going on the computer and looking where Santa is. And then put our cookies by the tree.

In my family we have a tradtiion called “Pass the Presents” where I go under the tree and pass the right presents to the right people. Another tradition in my family is going to my friend’s house to toboggan. My favourite tradition is getting up super early to open my presents. Every year my family has a huge turkey roast. In my house we put oranges on our Christmas tree to make the room smell nice. Our last tradition is making our gingerbread house and eating it slowly.

Jada Livingston
In my family, we have two traditions. We always wait for my dad to come home because he works shifts every Christmas, so we wait. Once my dad gets home, we get to open our stockings. Then we wait a little bit, and then we open our presents. Me and my brother always get a pair of pajamas. We usually get clothes too. I have a little sister. She is really into the whole opening-presents thing. My second Christmas tradition is: we go to Victoria every year, to go and celebrate something called Nativity, which is twelve days after Christmas. What it is, is celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ, the Lord. Have a Merry, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Sydney Ennis, Mrs. Harris Class!
On Christmas day my family traditions are: We always open the things in the stocking first because the bigger presents are a little better the ones in the stockings my family thinks so we save the best for last. On Christmas Eve we make a rice crispy house with my brother and my neighbors and we always go on the internet to see where Santa Claus is and when he is close to where we live we go straight to bed. We leave cookies and milk out for Santa and carots out for the raindeer. That is my traditions.
