Christmas is coming!

I can't believe that Christmas day is next week! Its so exciting! I love giving people gifts and seeing if they really like them or not! :)

I was thinking... does anyone have any Christmas traditions? We don't... I do try to read the birth of Jesus each Christmas Eve but that's not really a family thing. I still have this little kid book about it. Not really the bible, but hey it can work. Gets my mind on the reason why we have Christmas.

I think when I have a family of my own, I'd like to read the Christmas story on Christmas Eve. I've also heard of families that make a birthday cake (or dessert) for Jesus. I think that's cool too. That'd be something great to do when you have little kids in the family... sing "Happy Birthday" and such. Might not go over to well with older kids but hey, I like that idea!

So does your family have any traditions or are there any you want to start??
