On November 29, our season of family holiday traditions will begin for 2014. We will bundle up and load up the kids and head to the local tree farm to find our perfect Christmas tree. We’ll size them up and debate which one will fit the best.
Then we’ll strap that beauty to the top of our car, take it home and put it in the same place where all our Christmas trees before it has sat. The kids will wait {not so patiently} as we wrap it in lights and then it is their turn…decorating!
It’s the same tradition I had as a child. My dad would spend the morning trimming the bottom to get the tree straight and, after he had given up and conceded that it would always have a slight lean, my siblings and I would go to work decorating.
We’d reminisce about each of the ornaments we were placing. Reminders of places we’ve been or loved ones. And now my kids do the same thing as they decorate the tree.
It’s our first tradition of the season and my most favorite! Maybe it’s because it feels like the Christmas season has officially begun for us or maybe it’s because of the nostalgia I feel when that scent of pine fills my house.
For more than 60 years Hickory Farms has been celebrating these nostalgic moments with people. Rooted in a long heritage of tradition, many families across the country can remember Hickory Farms being a part of their own family traditions. Be it snacking on their fabulous meat and cheeses as they transform their homes with tinsel and lights or as a gift basket for friends or loved ones.
Available at HickoryFarms.com and in nearly 600 Holiday Market stores and kiosks across North America, Hickory Farms meat & cheese gift baskets, fruit baskets, and chocolates make for the perfect addition to a day of trimming the tree or to take along to your next holiday party!
A SIMPLE GIVEAWAY!
This year Hickory Farms wants to continue celebrating your holiday traditions, whether passed down from generation to generation or new traditions you are creating this year with your family! For a chance to win your own Hickory Farms Holiday Gift Basket, simply use the Rafflecopter form below.
