There are lots of adjustments as people learn to blend their traditions. You may have to learn to negotiate. It is important that you make your own traditions, and have something special for your branch of the family tree. But you will also have to be flexible.
Hi Sandy!
Thanks for sharing those holiday memories. It is so true that people need to compromise around the holidays. Though it is a time of giving, so many people tend to be stuck in their ways.
I have several traditions that I love and am looking forward to. Every year we spend thanksgiving at my family's log cabin. It has been a tradition and a great time for everyone to get together and spend time at the cabin (which my family built!).
