Diving in and getting some holiday traditions in place is something that will make this month happier while helping to make home (and home life!) better long after New Years Eve has come and gone. And why not reinvent them to reflect your own style and personality? Isn’t that what making a home is all about?
Key Takeaways:
- We lived in San Francisco near my family at the time, while Mr. Dolphin’s family primarily lives in Seattle.
- we flew to Seattle and spent time with my mother-in-law and her husband for lunch and the afternoon, then it was off to my father-in-law and his wife for Christmas dinner.
- We would spend one Christmas with my family, then the next year with Mr. Dolphin’s. We probably would continue this alternating travel plan today if we hadn’t gotten pregnant.
“That first year, we decided to try to see all our families for Christmas, and with both of our parents divorced and three remarried, it was a lot of Christmas! We saw my dad and stepmother in the afternoon of Christmas Eve, then we went to my mom’s for dinner and midnight mass.”
