Happy Wednesday, and welcome to Day 4 of Blogmas! What holiday traditions do you have?
I love using this blog as a personal journal sometimes! I would really enjoy hearing about your holiday traditions. Who knows, I might borrow a few ideas for when I start my own family one day!
One of my holiday traditions growing up was making tamales early in the morning on Christmas Eve with my family. This way, when we opened our presents at midnight, we could enjoy the tamales right away. My mom always said that the tamales we eat first are the initial gifts we get to savor. This blog has also become a personal tradition for me; this is my fourth year writing my Blogmas post.
I believe I’ve mentioned before that we watch the Harry Potter movies starting on Christmas Eve and finish the franchise on Christmas Day. Recently, someone on social media asked why the characters celebrate Christmas in the Harry Potter series, suggesting that, as witches and wizards, they would be pagan and it would make more sense for them to celebrate Yule. However, Ron very clearly says, “Happy Christmas, Harry.”
