Christmas came and went, then New Year's came. I spent Christmas with my mom, dad, and my brother. I was nice to be able to spend time with my parents becuase I don't see them that often. I reall enojoyed it. After we woke up and opened gifts on Christmas Day we went to my aunt's house to eat breakfast, which is a tradition in my extended family. I didn't know this until this year, but my aunts has had breakfast at her house on Christmas morning for 40 years. They were talking about it this year and said that it started when the guys would go out bird hunting they would cook the meat and serve it for breakfast on Christmas. Then over the years it went from bird meat to patty sausage and now my aunt cooks Conecuh sausage, which is phenomenally good.It was interesting to find out that bit of information. After we ate breakfast there we went to church, hung out for the rest of the day, and then went to bed.
All of my other siblings are married and have thier own little families so they have Christmas at there house, but they go to my parents the Saturday after Christmas so we can spend time together. It was really good to be able to spend time with all of my family because I don't see them that often. For New Year's Eve we shot fireworks that night. Most of my neices and nephews didn't like the loud fireworks so they went upstaris and looked out the window at them. All of them , but my neice that is six years old, her sister, and a little three year old that sat in my lap wile watching them. She was so cute. Every time a firework went off she would have a big smile on her face and never jumped once of tensed up. Toward the end they were getting kind of loud so I asked her if she wanted to go inside and she did so I took her to her mother.
