Holidays & Festivities!


Hello Everyone! I hope you are having a great day. I am back with another blog post for you guys! Today I’m going to be talking about holidays and traditions! I am going to tell you some traditions I like to do with my family around Christmas time and what we do to celebrate Christmas!

Preparing for Christmas:
In the beginning of December, my parents, my siblings, and I headed over to our grandma’s house to set up the Christmas tree. It has always been a tradition celebrating Christmas at my grandma’s house. We set up the tree, and every year I always want to put the star on the tree, and this year was tall enough to reach the top! I was so excited I got to put the star on top of the tree! When I was younger, before my grandparents moved, we had a little bag of special Christmas ornaments we would draw to put on the tree that year! I love to look back on those fun memories!

Christmas meals:

On EVERY SINGLE CHRISTMAS, my grandma makes her special secret recipe cake that tastes like heaven, it was so plush and soft and I couldn’t get enough of it. I am always very excited for it. It is one of the best cakes I have ever tasted. Also on Christmas, my grandma makes her amazing biryani. Biryani is an indian food that usually has rice, spices, and meat (sheep or chicken).

Presents:
These traditions are so amazing and fun, and I love that we’ve been doing it since I was very young. This Christmas, it’s going to be extra special because my one year old baby brother is going to join us this year! Another tradition we do every year is get presents!!! I love getting presents. My grandparents give me the best presents ever! They know me so well, one year I loved knitting, and they gave me a whole knitting kit! They are so great at finding presents I will love. Ever since I was very young, I would make presents for Christmas. Last year I worked very hard and gave the best present I ever made. I knitted beanies for my grandparents and my aunt.
I love giving presents and getting presents! Christmas is always going to be my favourite holiday!
