More Traditions!

Elliot Christmas stockings contain breakfast and it is perhaps the only meal of the year that isn't taken "family style". Of course, back when our family was unaccustomed to sleeping in ( sleeping in at the Elliots usually comprised an 8:30am breakfast) we all (minus my husband) still ended up eating together anyway. The only difference was that we lounged around the living room.

This year John couldn't resist sharing his new Christmas book with everyone - afterall, reading together is another Elliot tradition!

"Never Sniff a Gift Fish" by Patrick F. McManus. Mr. McManus writes humor for Hunting & Fishing Magazines.

It was Joy's gift for him. (Her father's suggestion!)
