hfoster+FollowHow our family holidays evolved with grown kidsHoliday traditions really do grow up with your family. Once our kids became adults, we ditched the stress of cramming everything into two days and created our own "Christmas Tweve"—a bonus day for feasting, movies, and gift-opening before the usual rush. Decorations are simpler now, but more meaningful, with superhero action figures and homemade ornaments taking center stage. Our Advent calendar and cookie baking have also shifted to fit everyone’s changing lives. It’s less about perfection and more about connection. Anyone else finding new joy in changing up old traditions as your family grows? #Relationships #FamilyTraditions #Holidays00Share
