Defining the Word;
Traditions
The transmission of customs or beliefs from generation to generation,
or the fact of being passed on in this way
A long-established custom or belief that has been passed on in this way
At Christmas time I always think back to the Traditons
that my parents passed on to me... Favorite Traditions!
Christmas Tree, Presents, Shopping
Our Church Singing Christmas Tree
and the Tradition I remember the most...
My Mom's Christmas Cookies!
She baked so many cookies they filled
several aluminum turkey bakers!
This year I am going to bake a few of
my favorite cookies from the recipes that
I kept from my Mom!
There are so many words that sum up traditions
that I hope I am passing down to my family...
Tree, Ornaments, Lights and of course Santa!
A new tradition I hope to start is placing Holly
in our wreath welcoming family and friends.

| Love the Red sparkle of this jewel! |
Now is the time to begin researching what
varietal of Holly I will plant next Spring.
Any Suggestions?
The next few weeks I will share
Traditions
that have been passed down from my parents.
Also, new Traditions that I can share with our
children and grandchildren!
