A family celebration is a time to celebrate and enjoy the surrounding of your family, enjoying everyone you love and miss. Having a family celebration is filled with pictures and wonderful memories that you will never forget or even want to forget. We will and have had celebrations that will pass on to other family members from generation to generation, including your children and there children, your grandchildren. You know with all that being said, there is no greater family celebration to me than a family celebrating the birth of a new family member and being their to share their happiness.

A Family Celebration

There are a lot of different family celebrations; holidays with all the good foods everybody brings to the table, a birthday and/ or the birth of a child, weddings that add additional members to the family or just hanging out because we want to celebrate each other for no reason at all.

I, myself being the oldest child out of four girls from my parents, and once again with all that being said, there is no greater family celebration to me than a family celebrating. I guess that’s why everyone looks to me and/ or comes to me for everything we do in all the celebrations being planned for some reason or another; I also thought it was because I was the only one with no children at the time, but I would actually learn, it turns out I can be the life of a party. Therefore this has always made me feel special to my family.

Now not being married or having children before any of my younger sisters was not a weird feeling for the love of my life or me, until it was actually brought to our

    Although, we may not always get together that often, we still try to stay as close as we can. We have a countless amount a traditions we go through every year, small and big. Every Christmas is spent at the grandparents, and my aunt and mom switch off every year for thanksgiving. These are the main cliche holiday traditions that we keep as a whole. Yet, my mom, brother and I like to get away to keep a tradition for ourselves. Every year we would sneak away from family and go to Panama City Beach. It gave us all time to relax from everything and just be able to do what ever we wanted. There was no power over any one and we just lived life care free for a couple weeks. Many of these traditions we have as a family make us closer every…

    A Christmas Tradition that the family has is to decorate the house all together (inside and out) and they all stay up together until the house is finished. Another tradition is that they have a big family dinner on Christmas Eve and the family stays up until midnight and each of them open one gift until the next day. A final tradition that this family has is their New Year’s tradition: on New Year’s Day, the family spends the whole day together and they play board games and watch movies as a…

    I grew up in a Mexican household filled with family, love, and warm greetings. We had many traditions within our family. I didn’t always feel like I belonged sometimes or that I was missing something. It could have been that I don’t speak Spanish as well as the rest of my family does or maybe I haven’t visited Mexico as much as they have. The traditions and culture are what brought us close together. We had family get togethers what seemed like every weekend, In reality it is more like every month. They didn’t have to be very formal at all, events like birthdays, weddings, quinceañeras, Christmas, and other holidays are all things that bring families together. And we definitely went all out.…

    Looking at an article from legacy.decaturdaily.com, it is noted upon that family reunions are a great way for families to catch up and strengthen bonds with one another. When families are able to join together and connect more, every single person in that family builds upon their social health and is likely to feel happier as a person. The tradition of family reunions also combats the barrier of distances between many families, and eliminates a feeling of ‘never seeing’ more distant family. All in all, the concept of family gatherings as a tradition is definitely a considerable help to bringing families closer…

    My mother and father come from large families, each have about ten brothers and sisters, so I would say I have about twenty aunts and uncles combined and a handful of cousins. Unfortunately, not all my relatives live here in the U.S but the ones who do live here, reside within a short distance from us and we always come together for the holidays to celebrate them as a family. However, Thanksgiving in the Montiel household is different; we don’t cook the traditional turkey or ham we feast on tamales and molé and give thanks for all the wonderful things god has blessed us…

    When I was younger, I typically received the things I wanted, things such as toys – being that I was an only child – and never worried about hearing the answer, “No”. I had this insane idea that the world revolved around me. Although I still had the concept in my head, that it was all about me when I was informed I would be an older sister, I knew that nothing would be the same. Before I was a sister, I never took anyone else into consideration, and I was never told to do otherwise. I was around four years old, when this news has changed my life forever.…

    Spending good quality time with family is really enjoyable. The quality of the time spent is irreplaceable. We love playing scrabble with each other after our feast. Laughing and joking with each other because someone decides to make new words while playing. Monopoly is always fun too. I enjoy catching up and talking with loved ones that I haven’t seen in a while. Just sitting around and watching a new movie with the family or even simply to relax. I am so blessed to have such a great family.…
