Thanksgiving, I don’t have alot of Thanksgiving traditions besides visiting my family. But, I always have to watch Home For The Holidays about a billion times.

For Christmas, I like to get up (dragged out of bed by my mom!) and open presents with my mom and dad. Then, we read the Bible, get ready, and go visit our families. Usually we get home late at night and watch Christmas movies.

Christmas: this is the best! to make presents last, my dad picks the first present (with his eyes shut) and gives it to that person they open it and do the same. It’s great. It makes opening presents a long event, and I like seeing what everyone gets.
