At the risk of some nameless grump raining on my parade again, I think it would be interesting to hear what people in the Union area have for Christmas traditions. Perhaps a meal that is special. We have gone full circle with the grandchild. The Christmas lights stay on all night so Santa can find the house. We get up way before dawn and take our time with the stockings, carefully going through each one. Our real tradition is no tradition. Time takes a break. We eat when we're ready and just try to really enjoy the day and the time spent with family.
