Traditions, Christmas..and oh yes..a picture overload..


How many boys does it take to put up a tent?

Since I can even remember we have been going to the Carter Christmas Eve party. I look forward to this every year but this party is beginning to get out of control..how many people can be held in one house, honestly?! fitting around 80 people in one home can be a bit of a problem but we do it some how and every year we have a least one more person join..I wonder how long it will last, but with that said I do love this party and always will because its all I remember. Last year my Mom and Dad started a little tradition of there own..after the party we all go back to my parents house and make a toast...starting in a circle we say what we are thankful for, afterwards, toasting with each other. I have loved this but something that has been around, again since I can even remember, is my dad setting out the lucky charms with a bow on them..we are not allowed to touch or open until christmas morning. Me being married of course I did not get to eat them but I just hope I have such fun traditions when I begin to have a family of my own.
