Advent Calendar Day 17


Day 17: Traditioooooons! Traditions!
(if I just got the opening number from Fiddler on the Roof stuck in anyone else's head, my work here is done.)


Today I'd love to hear about your family traditions!

Not necessarily the things that come with holidays that everyone does, but the ways you make it yours. Sure, lots of people are putting up Christmas trees, but do you always put yours up on a certain day? Do you have special decorations that have significance for you? That kind of thing! All holidays applicable, and if you don't celebrate any of them, then anything vaguely seasonal you like to do in a particular way is just fine, too!

For answering this, you may take two choice cards - one must be from an old series (started over ten years ago) and one from a new series (started within the last ten years)! No need to wait for a reply, just note what you're taking and abscond with it into the night. ♥

I basically went over this a little before, but my tradition is always going up to my second family's house. We always get tangerines in our stockings. They love Doctor Who so the special is always on, too! |b And their house gets invaded by angels and it's just a tad creepy. But a tradition that's stemmed for every few years is making homemade wreathes. Also, my best friend and I watch Star Trek and/or Harry Potter every Christmas.

I will be taking lieutenant17 (fma started in 2001) and foreigner03 (which came out within the last two years).
