Mitchell Holiday Traditions

Christmas Eve is one day the family indulges Mom and agrees to an evening of activities that we do each year.



We all get dressed in our Christmas PJ's and read a Christmas story...


We bake cookies (we did gingerbread people this year) ...



Then we all pile in the van with blankets, pillows, and hot chocolate to go look at Christmas lights.


And of course we can't forget Santa's cookie and the reindeer food.

Oh my goodness! Did we grow up in the same family? We used to pile in the car and go look at the neighborhood lights and decorations when I was a child in Birmingham. And, of course, the cookie baking was a must! Oh what fun memories! Your family is beautiful. Happy Holidays!
