Either this weekend or next we'll buy a real Christmas tree, because they are fresher now and the selection is better. But we don't put it up until it gets closer to Christmas. Instead, we'll put it in a bucket of water in the back yard to try to keep it fresh. We'll decorateit together as a family with some nice music and cheese and crackers or something like that. The ornaments all have a story. That part is pretty cool.
The only traditions we have are food ones. Fish chowder on Christmas Eve and crab imperial on Christmas day. Yum!
