Family Traditions

Over the last few years or so this is a subject that has been on the back of my mind. I have tried to think of if there was anything that we ever did that would constitute being a "Tradition". Because of my broken ties with my own family it just seems awkward to do anything that I felt like was a tradition with them. I liken it to a divorced couple who used to take the same tripe every year but neither one of them can go to that place anymore. That is just how I feel about it. Now I feel like I am sort of getting sidetracked in a way but I am wanting to instill these kinds of things into my children so that we can have something that we do and that they will want to do with their kids every year and so on. I want it to be something nice and memorable but not something outright cheesy that you would see in a Hallmark movie.

To my readers what are some of your family traditions and how long have you guys carried them out?
