I can't really blame her. It used to be that my brother & his 4 kids and I with my 4 would be the "life of the party". But our kids have all moved away. The "Brennan" Christmas with everyone together has long been over. <br /><br />My kids and I chose Dec 23rd to do Christmas Eve this year. A new tradition. Now my sis wants to come!Bud Weiser, WTIThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02333989186132063905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27448101.post-59945416484030174392012-12-01T09:50:33.378-06:002012-12-01T09:50:33.378-06:00I thought I hated how things 'evolved' as...I thought I hated how things 'evolved' as I got older. When I moved to CA, it was the hardest thing ever at the holidays. I married a Jewish guy that didn't really care if we did the whole 'Christmas Tradition' thing, so I learned to love Passover and Seder and go out to dinner and to a movie on Christmas. <br /><br />When we divorced and I moved back to Ohio, (february) the following January 5th my dad passed away. My 'traditions' and my life changes so much as I get older that it has become somewhat of a 'new journey' each year. <br /><br />My siblings and I and all of my cousins still keep the traditions as close as we can, and have even started some new ones. <br /><br />We make our own joy and happiness. I've followed your blog for so long that I feel certain that you are content with all of your decisions in life, and you are strong, and very content. <br /><br />I love your blog. Have a great Saturday. xo Maryauntiem4cabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03430574290165690205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27448101.post-5701956929847025812012-12-01T08:53:09.895-06:002012-12-01T08:53:09.895-06:00My mom passed away in December several years ago a...My mom passed away in December several years ago and it took having grandkids, many Christmas'later, to perk me up to Christmas again. I know Mom, our Queen of Cristmas, would not have wanted that!
