The Little Things

[Malok]

I've been away from home for a long time now. Going on six years to be exact. Around this time of year I would be sitting back in the kitchen, smearing powdered sugar on some cookies with mother dearest. It's one of those small things that I never realized meant the absolute world to me.

Anyways, not to get too sappy, but I had the opportunity to relive that "tradition" with my fiancee's folks. It was really nice. Well. Really nice is an understatement because I make some Damn fancy cookies.

So, as we draw ever closer to the big holiday of this month, I thought I'd pose the question to y'all. What sort of traditions do you guys enjoy this time of year?

Blackberry Brandy.

I'd make some nice hot chocolate, and watch Family Vacation with the Fam. (the one with chevy chase)

Growing up we had this weird little advent calendar on the fridge. It wasn't so much an advent calendar as it was a magnet calendar. Each day, you stick the little Christmas magnet onto the day and you count down to Christmas.

It was my favorite thing, ever.

Watch the Vacation movie with my grandparents, open 1 gift early with the fam. Then watch Santa on the NORAD thing with my cousins.

Ah, we always open one gift early, it's always pajamas though, I'm not sure what's happening with my parents, might have to talk with them about it .
