Christmas traditions







A long standing tradition in my family is the white elephant gift exchange and cousin gift exchange night. Part of grandma and grandpa's Christmas is they give each grandchild (who lives close enough) a little money then we all go to the store together and have a certain amount of time to choose a gift to give to a cousin. The kids LOVE this and although it's crazy at the store all the kids love getting to go to the store withtheir cousins! The white elephant for the "grow-ups" is hilariuos and there are a wide range of gifts. Everyting from a LARGE carpet picture (framed) to various "costumes" (I won't go into detail)! It's a blast and only seems to get better with years!
