We’re not quite ready to let Christmas go at the Lanter house. We’re still enjoying our decorations, Christmas cookies and classic movies. We’re trying to squeeze out every last drop of Christmas that we can get, lol. Honestly, we’re like this every year, but knowing that this was our last Christmas before baby L arrives, makes us want to be sure to really not miss out on anything.
I’ve had the worst leg pains this trimester which has really limited my evening activities. This is the first year that we’ve been together that we skipped Christmas Eve candlelight church service, but I needed to stay off my feet. Hopefully next year, we’ll be able to pick up that tradition again. Otherwise, we held true to every single one of our other Christmas traditions this year (except Disneyland, which my feet absolutely couldn’t handle right now). Some of those traditions include: baking cookies, going out to look at Christmas lights on Christmas night, breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel and more.
Leave a comment below and let me know if you and your family have any special traditions for Christmas that you look forward to each year. I love getting new ideas from you about different things we could be doing!
