My family normally starts Advent, meaning waiting for the Lord to come.
1st Sunday of Advent - Hope
2nd Sunday of Advent - Peace
3rd Sunday of Advent - Joy
4th Sunday of Advent - Love
It normally begins in December, and some years, Advent starts in Late-November.
During Advent, my family celebrates The Immaculate Conception on December 8th, Our Lady of Guadalupe on December 11th and 12th, My Parish and Ministry normally they have a Procession, and a Midnight Mass. Before, they did it near Starlight Reasturant but got removed and now in the present they do it at my parish.
During my years in elementary school, I wasn't able to stay up for the midnight mass. That was during 2016 to 2021 and during the pandemic it was discontinued but was recontinued last year.
I got a chance this year and I stayed up for the midnight mass and ate some delicious Mexican food!
Hi @Lynette
I used to host Christmas Eve every year until my son became an adult. I made sure my son woke up in our house Christmas morning. I used to cook a feast for the family and we used to party until early the next day (2:00am-3:00). After I cleaned up in the kitchen, it was time to gather the gift and put them under the Christmas tree. I used to love to see my son get so excited when we came down and see all the gifts. He would yell, β Santa came, Santa came!!!β My son was 9 years old when he found out the truth about Santa, he was so depressed.
I still kept the tradition of put the gifts under the tree after my son went to bed on Christmas Eve. My son believed that I would go shopping for gifts after our Christmas Eve party. He finally figured it out when he was 16 years old, that I would hide the gives all over the house. π
I really don't have any traditions anymore. My Son and Daughter are in their 20's and pop in at their leisure.
My fondest memories and traditions were when I was little and into my early adulthood.
When I was little every year I would go to my Nana's and we would decorate everything . The most exciting part for me was when we put the train up ....she had so much for that train . It would be put on the dining room table. Then when my Brother's got older they would help.
On my Italian side of the Family until my Grandma passed we had a large dinner Christmas Eve dinner. EVERYTHING was homemade including her pasta. Then we would do gifts. Merry Christmas Everyone xx
