Traditions

Last year I started a new tradition for New Year's Day.  I made a 30 min slideshow of the year, put some of the music that we listened to most that year in the background, and added in a few of the funniest videos.  I used the movie maker software that came on my computer, and it wasn't nearly as difficult as I had anticipated, except I never figured out how to get it to a format that would play on a DVD player (help would be appreciated here), but we watched it on the computer and loved it.  The girls have asked to watch it over and over this year.

Today I'm trying to stuff some of my favorite pics in a folder, so I don't have to do it all the week after Christmas.  I'm also running down the playlist, trying do decide which Taylor Swift songs I want my grandchildren to have to listen to.    :)

A sampling of some of the pics that will be on our 2010 slide show...

My dad can watch "home Alone" any day of the year and laugh just as hard as he did the first time he watched it. (even though I'm sure he's watching it at least 50 times by now) It seems the tradition in my family is watching "Home Alone" to kick off the Christmas season.

Bob and i are having fun trying new traditions. We started last year buying each other a Christmas ornament to exchange at Thanksgiving. So far, it's been really fun!
