Journal Entry for Dec. 24

Normally on Christmas Eve I don't do anything but prepare for the next day. Since my mom lives in Texas I didn't do my normal tradition. This year for Christmas Eve I went to The City with my girlfriend and visited her family and went with their tradition. They have a long story behind their tradition but long story short they buy Christmas gifts for the grandchildren. My family doesn't do this, we would pick out of a hat on who we would buy gifts for. It was exciting this year, because even I received gifts from her family. Her family didn't know what to expect.
