It's so exciting! Winter break is near! What are your plans? What are you looking forward to most? Are you traveling or staying in Houston? If you celebrate Christmas, what are some of your family's traditions you look forward to every year? If you celebrate Hanukkah, what are some of your traditions? I can't wait to hear what each of you have planned!
I am going to Cabo San Lucas!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to go. Our traditions are waiting for our dad to get home before we light the menorah. Then we sprint into the living room to get our present. I always choose the biggest present for the first and last night of Hanukkah. I usually get two presents a night. Hanukkah lasts for eight nights. Me and my sister Samantha light our own menorahs. Samantha has a menorah that looks like NYC and has the statue of liberty and the Broadway sign and a lot of other things.And mine has little people and in front of them are shoes to hold the candles.
ReplyDeleteI'm staying here for the break. But my cousins are coming from Seattle. I'm most excited about my cousins coming because one of them is my age and I'm older than all of my other cousins. Every Christmas morning we open presents at are house and we go to our grandparents house and open some there.
ReplyDeleteFor my winter break I am staying home. I always love it when we put up our Santa Claus, it glows in the dark! If I am not at my house then I will be at my Grandma's house. My holiday tradition is opening 1 present on Christmas Eve.
ReplyDeleteFor my winter break I going to Gorigeia to celebrate christmas. I like it when we put up the tree. We watch a movie called Christmas Vacation. It is really funny. It is about a guy named Clark Griswold. I also like putting the ornaments.
ReplyDeleteI always go to my grandparents house in Michigan the day after Christmas. My family has a tradition that we open a new pair of candy-cane striped pjs. Going to my grandparents house will not be as fun this year because my cousins won't be thereπ. They have a adorable dog named Kimmy π.
ReplyDeleteMy family is hosting the Jacomini white elephant party on Friday. My cousins come in town from Austin and Dallas. On Saturday we have the Crosswell party with everyone. It is a big party with a lot of cousins. We are going to Austin on December 20th and will see my mom's family and some friends. Every year on Christmas day the McFarland family comes to our house for lunch. ππ

ReplyDeleteYes I am very excited for winter brake! Me and my family are going on a Disney cruse! The most exciting part for me is getting off the boat. If you are wondering why, I am scared of sinking but the rest of it I am excited about. I am jewish so I celebrate Chanukah. Our traditions are eating chocolate coins, saying the Chanukah prayer, we all get to light the candles, we open one present a night, and my mommy makes potato latkes.
ReplyDeleteMy family doesn't really have anything planed, but if we had to go somewhere we would go to North Carolina to celebrate Christmas with my uncles. But mostly I think I'm going to stay in Houston and draw, read and do other stuff. Im not much of a girly girl but some of my friends like to have :shakes 2 fingers up and down: tea parties. Do i like to? No. But can i be a good friend and always do what they want to do? Yes. I'll have birthday's to go to, and my birthday is coming up in January 16. I'll maybe have friends over and have Pokemon battles with our cards. If you find me at my house one day you'll probably find me looking at my Pokemon cards. Im addicted. π€ Eevee is one of my favorites or either Pikachu or a Gyarndos and a Charzard. I'll be have tons of fun this up coming week. I'll see you all back in January!π
ReplyDeleteFor our winter break, my family is going to Sun Valley, Idaho. Our traditions are we always go skiing, on Christmas Eve we watch Nutcracker on Ice and eat cookies and hot cocoa. Every year my brother and I go on a mini sled. This year I promised my dad that I will make a snowman with him.
ReplyDeleteI'm exited for Christmas. I am going to stay in Houston. I am glad I Finally have a break because even on the weekends I don't have a break. My dad is in Korea and he missed my birthday and Christmas. Even though I have a break I still have violin. I think I made it to "Santa's good list"!
ReplyDeleteI am staying in Houston for the holidays. I cannot wait for the winter break. My brother and sister are going hunting. I just don't want to go this year so I am staying home.
ReplyDeleteFor Christmas I am going to Virginia. We are staying at a hotel named Greenbrier. It is always decorated for Christmas. I can't wait to go to Virginia for Christmas. Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you have a great holiday break.
ReplyDeleteWe're going to the farm with my mom's family. We go to the farm every year, because it is a family tradition. I play with my cousins. We decorate the tree.
ReplyDeleteI am REALLY excited to go to California for Christmasπ!!! Our family tradition is to celebrate Christmas and open presents twice! Once on the 24th and the other on the 25th. First in California then in Texas depending on what day Christmas is on. When we are in California, my grandmother, Mormor, cooks a traditional Danish Christmas, which has my favorite Danish pork sausage called medisterpolse, duck roast and pork roast with crispy pork skin. My sister loves the crispy skin! We sing Christmas carols in Danish and in English. We eat rice pudding with one hidden almond in it. The person who finds the almond wins an extra christmas present. While at my grandparents' (mormor and morfar's) house, Santa Claus always comes through the glass patio door caring presents in a white cloth bag and hands them to us. Another family tradition is that we go snow sledding on toboggans. It's so FUN!! We some times have snowball fights and build a snowman ☃️ if the snow is soft and fresh. Last year it did not snow much so we went to Queen Mary in Long Beach to go ice tubing instead. When we are in Texas, we read from the bible, then my sister and I play Christmas songs on the piano and we all sing Christmas songs before opening presents.
ReplyDeleteI am very exited for winter break, TWO WEEKS OFF SCHOOL!!! I might go to my ranch for a couple nights but not christmas!π I am going to my grand mothers house for christmas and christmas eve. My family rarely goes out of town for christmas. But this christmas only 3/9 familys will be there. That means we can't do white elephant this year and we can barely do secret santa.
