Day 2 of the......

Day 2: Share a fun tradition your family has at Christmas.

Well honestly when my family first started this tradition I was not so happy about it. I thought it was weird, and odd and why were my parents making us doing this? LoL.. However after getting to participate with my family doing this *tradition* I have come to enjoy it and look forward to it as well. And it's been two years since I have gotten to participate in this *tradition* and I'm excited that my husband and I get to participate in it this year! Okay, okay I will try my best to describe this strange yet fun tradition..

It involves the *Christmas Tag*


Now I bet your wondering what does and Christmas tag have to-do with anything.. It just says who the gift is for and who is is from... Instead of writing who the gift is to. We come up with questions and write the "answer" on the tag. And then we hand out the questions before passing out the presents... And the person has to figure out the answer to get his\her present... It was super confusing the first time we did it, because the younger kids forgot to write down the questions! LoL.. But it made for some great laughs.. Here is an example. I am horrid with coming up with questions. So I cheated the first year and wrote down a Bible verse for each question. And then the Bible verse address was the answer. I limited it to the Christmas Story told in Luke. So then they wouldn't have to search the whole Bible!
So the tag looked something like this:

To: Luke 2:14
From: Megan

And the slip of paper I handed my sister read:
"Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"
So for her to know which present was for her she had to go through the story of Luke and figure out the address of the verse.

I really enjoy this tradition now though, for one it makes for a much more fun time and it lengthens out the gift giving process, which is ALWAYS fun. And helps those who ahem *cough, sputter* like to try to peek at gifts before Christmas! Not that I do THAT anymore... hehehehe.....

So THAT is one of the many fun family traditions we have...

And on to the Outfit!
Okay... okay... I really need to take some *take your own photo classes* I'm horrid. LoL.. this is the best one and I have no arms because I put them behind my back.. I know I know soooo smart of me. :)
