When I was younger there aren’t many Holiday traditions that I remember our family partaking in. The only one that truly sticks out is that we would go and pick out a real tree at a tree farm, cut it down and bring it home. Holiday traditions are some of the most important memories for a child and their family. Some children will even carry those traditions over into their own families (when it’s that time). I was inspired by Patience Brewster to write about our holiday traditions. Patience Brewster is a small one artist company that creates unique handmade ornaments and holiday gifts.
Usually the Twelve Days of Christmas actually FOLLOW Christmas running from the 26th of December to the 5th of January. However, this year I decided to do it leading up to Christmas. David is such a huge fan of this time of year. He really gets into the spirit and I think for both of us, the magic of Christmas has returned with having the girls understanding the spirit of the holidays more and more.
So we all know the song for the 12 Days of Christmas but I'm revising it based on what my man likes! Now sing it with me...

It's tradition every year since David and I have been together that the day after Thanksgiving we put up the tree with all the decorations. We don't have a lot but I'm slowly building a collection. The girls both love the tree being up, constantly "oooooing" and "ahhhhhing"...gotta love the Holidays!
