Except for champagne at midnight we don’t have too many traditions. Partly because everyone around me seems to have so many! DH’s family had a lovely game night with two other foreign service families and all their assorted kids. Charades and the Dictionary Game were always part of it, and then other quicker games that involve more luck or at least fewer verbal skills for the younger kids. My Florida SIL always has Hoppin’ John and greens. My half Japanese SIL always makes us breakfast of propitious foods. We thought we’d have it this year, but her oldest needs to stay home and finish college applications. Procrastination runs in the family…
