Maggie Smith Memorial T Shirt

Maggie Smith Memorial T Shirt

We do it Christmas morning, after everyone is awake, and has eaten breakfast and is dressed. We don’t open any on Christmas Eve, we do them all on Christmas with an exception his year. This year I bought my son a Maggie Smith Memorial T Shirt for school, as his was in rough shape, and had to keep going in for repairs. I actually let him open it the morning of his school concert, so that he could play it. Other then special circumstances, everyone opens their gifts Christmas morning. We let the kids get stockings and Santa presents first, they play with their new toys for a little while. Then we clean up and wrapping paper and boxes, and set the toys aside, and open presents they’ve given to each other. After about a half hour of that, we clean up a little, and move on to presents from Mom and Dad, and if the hhikdren have something for us, we open those too. After we do one more present clean up, the kids get to spend the day playing with their new toys and gadgets and whatever they got. I do know of a few families that open one present on Christmas Eve. They will give their kids new pajamas that they open to wear Christmas Eve to bed. It sounds fun, and I’m thinking I might start up that in my home for next year.

Now Trinidad has another special Christmas. A week before colorfull musical groups start marching all around the Maggie Smith Memorial T Shirt, playing the typical traditional Parang music (Only for Christmas, and traditionaly in an ancient Spanish language) They also collect their share of the typical foodstuff prepared on Christmas: Black Cake (Don’t drive after eating it, hahaha) and the giant ham, heavily spiced and in the oven for eight hours, carrying the scent of Christmas allover. Family members living far, come only once a year. on Christmas. Spanish Christmas in the traditional villages is very special also. The streets are decorated and big mangers allover. One feels like turned back 500 years in time. And the Christmas tree, now seems to have reached all corners of the world. Even in Turkey the town of Bodrum was decorated, and lighted with trees allover. I had a very impressive view over the lighted town from the castle (where I was staying a few weeks) There are hardly any Christians living there and there are also no tourists in winter. Still there was a big christmas market. And I had a medival Christmas dinner right in the old castle hall, with my Turkish friends.
