Strangest/most boring/worst present you’ve ever received- You know, it wasn’t my gift, but I was there the day it was given. Sounds deLIGHTful! 😜 (Sorry, that’s my hubby’s influence!) The kids open all gifts from friends then, and my daughter and her family open theirs. So cool.) We come home, and the grandkids are there. After the Candlelight service, we come home, put on new pajamas, and drive around to see the light display (especially a neighbourhood that has luminarias-hundreds of them leading up each drive and walk on the whole block. What’s one of your family’s Christmas traditions?- Christmas Eve is super fun for us. Yeah, snow is an even more implausible wish here! Aside from that, as long as the wind isn’t blowing, I’m thrilled with any weather. But even when we do have snow, it’s gone by morning. My ideal Christmas Day weather- Well, I’d love snow and all that goes with it, of course. Both the nap and the magically tidied living room! I just can’t stand a tree without gifts below it. I wake up and my living room looks normal again. And while I sleep, my husband and the kids take down the tree. After this Christmas, I’ll only have one “non-adult.”įavourite Christmas Day activity- Taking down the tree! Well, for me, it’s not taking down. They went from infants to toddlers, from kids to teens, and now most are adults. We may be flawed, messed-up people, but we’re family, and that is a beautiful thing. Children waking, coming into the living room, talking, laughing, singing. It’s a lifetime of Christmas Days over the past 29 years. Lol! How did we ever survive without “the Google”?įavourite Christmas memory- It’s not just one day. But how would the Scots have known that? They didn’t have “the Google” as my mother calls it! Don’t ask why they named it Hungarian… I suspect because the Hungarians LOVE their sweets.
Although, it often has a few more sequences than the original! And they often confuse that refrain with the refrain from ‘Ding, Dong, Merrily on High’! 😃įavourite Christmas food- Hungarian Coffee Cake. My kids love singing the ‘Gloria’ refrain of that last one.
Otherwise… hmmm “What Child is This” or “Angels We Have Heard on High” I LOVE to sing “We Three Kings.” The harmony on that is so gorgeous. ~ Christmas with Chautona Havig ~įavourite Christmas carol/hymn- Well, that depends on whether I want to listen or sing.
Feel free to visit any of the posts you’ve missed via the links at the end of this post, but for now, let’s welcome Chautona Havig to the blog! It’s the eleventh day of Christmas reads! Only one more day to go after today.
