Traditions

I think growing up in winter-less Florida has caused me to be a little over-zealous with the winter traditions, but I just love this time of year in Seattle. Here are some of our favorite holiday traditions:

-Macy's Holiday Parade
-Decorating the house and tree
-The Garden 'd Lights
-Reindeer at Swansons
-Christmas Lights in Loyal Heights
-Sledding in Snoqualmie
-Making Gingerbread Houses
-Making Advent Wreaths
-Advent Calendar from Secret Garden Bookstore

(One tradition sure not to make the list is driving to the mountains for our own tree)


Here are some pictures of the kids making gingerbread houses today with their friends.
