That kind of sums up our Christmas Eve celebrations and this year is no exception. We had such a fun day though!!! (Yesterday was awesome too, Craig got his G1, and had his first job interview!!)
Earlier in the day we were able to go see the Olympic Torch come through our town. It was so neat to see so many people downtown. It is fun to see everyone's Facebook status updates to say they were there. Afterward we came home, had some hot chocolate and got ready to go for a run. Ray, Blixie and I ran, and the boys went skating on the lagoons. Then home again, pop the lasagna in the oven and wait for supper. Write out a few cards..have a glass of wine. Joe made caesar salad. Yum!
We also had a fun movie night together, and watched "Field Of Dreams", one of our favourites. (The boys were skeptical that something on "tape" could actually be worth watching, but they ended up really liking it!)
It's hard to have traditions when there are so many "firsts" and "once in a lifetime" events occurring. Maybe our tradition will be to just continually embrace spontaneous situations as they arise, even during holidays. :)

Always a good thing to start traditions. It gives a family that much more reason to get together. It sounds like you guys had a lot of fun. Keep up the good ideas.
