“My holiday tradition is kind of backwards … I can’t make it to Christmas. … I have to give everyone their gifts early. So generally, by the 23rd, 24th, I’m aching for you to open up your gift. So that’s it. Giving gifts early ... I’m a giver. … I have no patience. So, I want Christmas to always be something that we do every day.”

“It’s probably making tamales with my mother. … It’s not one of those things you can just look up online. It’s kind of one of those things that’s passed down, especially (with) flavors … That’s kind of the start of the holiday, you know? When you make your tamales and then you have them throughout the holidays.”

“I think my favorite holiday tradition probably has to be stuffing the Thanksgiving turkey with my parents … We all just sit down, pick bread, cut veggies, bake them off, make sure that the bread is nice and stale for the stuffing, and then you just, of course, stuff the turkey! And it’s a lot of fun. Everybody’s super happy, we crack jokes and it’s — overall — a good time.”
—AIDAN PARKER, THRALL
“My family and I have a super-casual Christmas Day meal planned. I know a lot of people do a full multi-course meal … We honestly just do appetizers and hang out just because ... we all like it that way. So, it’s kind of fun to, like, shake up ... the normal tradition with our own version of one … And it started because we’re, I guess, a blended family.”
—BROOKE EDEN, TAYLOR
“I have two young kids, so we’re kind of just starting … holiday traditions … Me growing up is like, Christmas Eve church service ... (At) the two churches that we’ve kind of gone to over the years, they always do like a candlelight Christmas Eve service, and it’s really pretty. And especially the part where they sing ‘Silent Night’ with the candles lit and it’s just ... (a) magical moment.”
