our Christmas traditions

I thought I would share with you our Christmas traditions:

• we only exchange gifts that will fit into stockings and everyone in the family gets involved in putting gifts in each others stockings
• santa does not come to our house
• we get to open our stockings on the last morning we are in town before we go out of town for Christmas, usually a couple of days before Christmas
• on the morning that we open stockings, michael makes my mom's recipe for strawberry toast for breakfast
