Those are the Agnew family traditions.]]> 2017-12-19 19:00:41 UTC https://padlet.com/maria_jose_giav/6k39n8hyfa41/wish/217345209 https://padlet.com/maria_jose_giav/6k39n8hyfa41/wish/217345484  In my household, we have many different things we do during the holidays.

We also decorate the doorway and the front windows with Christmas decorations and when Christmas comes, my sister and I wake up a little early and run down to open the Christmas presents. Also, our family tradition was to hide many of the fun children’s Christmas presents (usually toys) around the house and my sister and I work together to hunt them down. We also might visit friends on Christmas and eat something special. Altogether, our traditions might not be anything crazy or spectacular but when Christmas arrives, the traditions are always a surprise. ]]> 2017-12-19 19:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/maria_jose_giav/6k39n8hyfa41/wish/217345484 https://padlet.com/maria_jose_giav/6k39n8hyfa41/wish/217345571 During the Winter we get a lot of snow here in Newtown, Pennsylvania.
