My favorite holiday is Christmas. When I was younger we always would go to my mother's parents house and celebrate Christmas Eve and have pizza and open presents. This was our [|tradition]. On Christmas Day we would go to my father's parents house and have a big lunch and open all of our presents. There were so many generations there. We have not done this in several years since both sides of my grandparents have passed. I have tried to create new traditions with my husband and daughter and some of our friends as well.
