Mrs. Long: We collect Christmas ornaments from places we go to on vacation. When we hang them on the tree we are reminded of our vacation. This year we will hang our Yellowstone Park ornaments for the first time. I can't wait! I love the memories generated from this tradition! We have another tradition that I love. Every December we make a gingerbread house. We call it the "House of Long" and have a lot of fun decorating it. Every year it looks a little different!

Mrs. Crowley: Every Christmas Eve, my Dad and I go out to breakfast together. After breakfast we visit the mall to buy my mom one last present for Christmas. We have been doing this each year since I was a little girl and continue this tradition today. A newer tradition I have is baking cookies the week before Christmas with my sister-in-law Katie. We have so much fun baking and chatting together.

Madigan Morrissey: My Christmas tradition is when Finley, Mom, Dad and I walk to downtown Wayne to watch the Christmas Tree lighting. There are crafts at the Firehouse, horse drawn carriage rides, and Santa comes down Lancaster Avenue on the old fire truck. Before heading home we all have hot chocolate with whipped cream.

//Sister Mary Ellen// When I was little, my grandmother who lived far away would send us a Christmas present the week before Christmas. On Christmas Eve my brothers annd sisters would open one present. It was always the present from our grandmother. We knew that the present was going to be a new pair of pajamas. It was always a a special time. We went to bed early in our new Christmas pajamas so that we could wake up early on Christmas morning.

Lisa Evans: The weekend after Thanksgiving, we start to put our Christmas decorations up. I help my mom decorate the house and the Christmas tree. On Christmas Eve, we go to mass. Most houses in our development participate in a luminary night. We drive around and look at the Christmas lights and decorations. On Christmas day, we have a big meal and relax.
