Our Christmas Tradition is a little different from most families.Some baseball teams give you the week of Christmas and New Years off and some don't. It really just depends. We have had both and really doesn't phase us either way because we usually don't go anywhere. We are currently in Modesto, California and he only has 2 days off around Christmas and New Years.
Our first Christmas together was as a fiancee, and we were living in Oklahoma City. We had just moved to OKC about a month before so we were still getting settled in. We didn't have much money or know a whole lot of people either yet. Right before Christmas the NBA decided to end their lockout and the first set of games was on Christmas. OKC was playing at home during that time, so we knew to avoid downtown OKC.
The funny thing is that we are not big NBA fans, but with nothing to do in a town we don't know anyone we went to Chili's and watching NBA all day! At that time we had no idea it would become a tradition.
Each year we have expanded a little bit of watching basketball games. Sometimes we go out anywhere that is open on Christmas to watch basketball. Sometimes we stay in and have pizza. It's all lowkey. Which is really nice to relax, because now that I work in a gym it's nice to relax. December through March is pretty busy at gyms.
What are your Christmas traditions?
