Stricken Sounds

Other than Halloween my favorite holiday is definitely Christmas. When it comes down to that day it almost seems worth all the stress of wrapping all those presents even though I’m not getting any. My family are a huge part of my life I don’t know what I would do without any of them, even my step-dad. When we were younger we would always have Christmas by my grandmothers house but for some reason we just can’t seem to escape from getting into heated arguments with all my aunts and uncles. It’s a shame those people are 30 years older than me and they’re still trying to compete with every single person and act like they’re better than everybody, so my parents, me, and my two sisters along with their little families have decided to start our own family traditions for the holidays. For Thanksgiving we spend the day at my moms house and for Christmas we spend at my sisters. My sister lives about 3 hours away and us spending Christmas at her house gives her husbands family more convenience of being with us for the holidays. Yes we like my sisters in-laws, they’re awesome as a matter of fact. We spend all day eating and talking about funny things that we did as kids then take naps. Once we accumulate more room in our already swollen stomachs we continue eating and having the best times. I’m very blessed to have such a great family.
