My family doesn't have any Thanksgiving traditions,but we do have Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year's Eve ones.On Christmas Eve we have some friends over and we have Mexican food ( which I don't like) and we have a Pinata. Out in the  driveway we put out paper lanterns so they know which house is ours.After the Pinata we do a play about the birth of Jesus Christ. When everyone is gone we get to open one present.:) When we (the kids) are asleep my mom and dad wrap up the living room in wrapping paper, so in the morning after we read the letter from Santa we can crash through it!!!! We always open our stockings first. For Christmas dinner we always have ham and sparkling cider in special Christmas cups!! (not the ham in the cups, that would be silly)!

Oh,I guess we do kinda have a Thanksgiving tradition. We have friends over and there is a kids' table and a grownup table. We only have family Thanksgiving if my mom wants to go all the way to Idaho or Montana to where they live! We have turkey for dinner (of course,..though last year I guess someone brought over turkey because we still have one in our freezer!!). Thanksgiving we put up the Christmas tree!

I don't know how you should put up your decorations! I would just put up turkeys and signs that say "Happy Thanksgiving"!

Hmmmmmm.......  I'm very sad to say that I'm not good at decorating.....  Sorry!!  I did notice that Bekah and I are on at the same time, though!!

We don't have any "official" traditions that are actually called traditions, but we do have routines. My family always spends Christmas with my cousins and aunt and uncle, so the kids in the house are: Me, 12 years old. My sister Laura, 8. My cousin Elvis (yes, that's actually his name, and yes, everyone thinks that was an insane thing for my aunt to do), age 7. My cousin Penny, age 6. So I always wake up really early and creep down the hall to empty my stocking. We're aloud to dump out our stockings before everyone's awake but not aloud to open our presents. Anyway, then Elvis wakes up and we wait for what seems like an eternity for our parents and Laura and Penny to wake up (we're not aloud to wake anybody else up :( first.) Then presents, then breakfast of pancakes with M&Ms on them.

I'm sorry, George and Tail, but like Paige, I'm pretty awful with decorations.

Well... At my house, it just wouldn't be Christmas if our tree didn't fall over at least once during its stay in our living room. This might have something to do with the fact that my dad always picks one much bigger than we have room for.

Hi, George and Tail!!! I have some suggestions for decorating the mansion. First, put Christmas lights anywhere there is room for them (outside or inside). Second, string cranberries and popcorn together and lay those on top of the fireplace mantle. Third, get a Christmas tree and hang up your stockings!! !!

I have some Christmas traditions!  Before we eat dinner (cheese and crackers), we always read a chapter from the book of Luke; Every year, I buy a penguin ornament to hang on the tree (weird tradition, I know...); And, my cat gets to open the first present.  We hide a wrapped-up catnip toy in the tree, he finds it, and he tears it open and goes crazy. :):):)
