traditions!

When my son was nine (2002) he had to write an essay for school about family holiday traditions. This is what he wrote.

My Favorite Holiday Traditions by DJ
Every Christmas Eve we go to my aunt’s house. All the kids make a huge mess and lot of noise and we eat until the grownups say how full they are and they are going to puke, but then my aunt brings out dessert and everyone keeps eating. Then the grownups start drinking and we all exchange presents and the grownups act like idiots while the kids mess up the house some more. Then my poppy takes out the video camera and tapes everyone doing embarrassing things and then the babies start crying so everyone leaves. It’s the most fun day of the year.

Eating, drinking, puking, acting like idiots. The basis for all family holiday traditions around here.

This definitely does sound like the most fun day of the year! Can I be invited this year?
