We read the Christmas story from the Bible before opening gifts. When I'm able, we go to a Christmas Eve service at church.
I agree with you, I think we long for more family intimacy and more of Jesus in our Christmas these days. I long for those heartwarming moments along the way.
We play gift opening games. They're fun and everyone gets to enjoy each gift. It takes forever, and when the kids were little, it took some patience, but now, playing the game has become the highlight.
Hope you're feeling well diann
It seems like no one in my family needs anything either. And no matter how old I get my parents can't accept they don't have to give me gifts like when I was little. So they ask & it's almost stressful figuring out what I want.
Thins have changed so much over the past few years we haven't followed any traditions. This year I'm going to sc to see my bro '& his new wife. That'll be interesting
My own traditional the past years has been watching as many cheesy lifetime, abc family, & hallmark Christmas movies and make fun of them
Years ago I bought a set of ADORNaments. They are colorful sturdy cardboard ornaments and each one has a name of God, i.e. Lamb of God, Light of the World, etc. and a Bible verse. There is also a devotional booklet in the set. On twelve evenings prior to Christmas we read the scripture and devotional, then our son hangs the ornament on the tree. Plus we open a gift I have bought for us all. It can be a DVD, candy or some other food item, just something fun.
I try to take a snow hike. It doesn't always happen, but it's a good way to get in touch with God and connect in a meaningful way, just Him and me.
