Unwrapping Holiday Traditions: An Exploration of Comfort and Joy

Aging ain't for Sissies

Have you ever experienced the magic of the Morton Arboretum's illumination of lights? Or the thrill of picking your own Christmas tree at a farm? Come along with me, your host, Marcy Backhus, as I navigate the joyous holiday season, sharing snippets from my exhilarating life, from my ongoing home remodel to my enchanting experiences. I'll take you on a heartwarming journey exploring holiday traditions that span cultures and how they bring comfort, joy, and meaning to our lives.
Let's ignite the holiday spirit together as we dive into the Dutch tradition of Sinterklaas, the fun of a Christmas movie marathon, and explore the magic of visiting a Christmas tree farm. We'll also discuss the controversial Elf on the Shelf tradition and the use of nutcrackers as decorations. Cherish the holiday season, and find joy and meaning in your own traditions. Let's celebrate the holiday season, reminisce about old memories, honor loved ones who have passed away, and look forward to creating new ones. Let's embrace the holidays, the traditions, and, most importantly, each other.
