We wrote a letter for the year-end and posted it online. I wasn’t interested in writing on at all this year, but DH didn’t want to stop this tradition. It just seemed like there was nothing good to this year, but DH was able to make it not depressing! 🙂 If you’d like to read it, you can find it here!
You are ‘Silent Night’! You really enjoy
Christmas, and you like your Christmases
conventional. For you, Christmas is about
family and traditions, and you rather enjoy the
rituals of going to church at midnight and
turning off the lights before flaming the plum
pudding. Although you find Christmas shopping
frustrating, you like the excitement of
wrapping and hiding presents, and opening a
single door on the Advent Calendar each day.
You like the traditional carols, and probably
teach the children to sing along to them. More
than anyone else, you will probably actually
have a merry Christmas.
