Grandmother Georgia Christmas with Traditions

Growing up our biggest family traditions were at Grandmother Georgia's house.  Santa came on Christmas Eve night, around 6pm.We would go in the white room and wait for about 30 minutes because the grownups saw on TV that Santa was about to stop by and we couldn't see him.  We would listen for the reindeer's feet tapping on the roof. The guys all go out side and throw rocks on the roof, it sounds like reindeer feet.  Chad loved getting in on the fun, Dad, Paul and Chad were literally gitty!  Harry was in awe of the sounds!  Then we opened presents and played!On Christmas day we made a gingerbread house!Everyone likes butter with mashed potatoes..Leaving was sad!Is it amazing how much this child likes cheap gifts....I will never learn!  The ball was a HUGE hit!Harry did not like the girls playing with make up!
