Christmas with the Kranks
Last weekend my family and I had our annual Christmas get together. The comedic highlight of the evening came about ten seconds after I walked in the door when my Grandmother and I had the following exchange:
Me: Happy Holidays!
Grandma: WHAT? We say Merry Christmas in this house.
Me: *silence*
Grandma: Why are you making that face? Do you have to sneeze?
Me: No, I’m fine. Let’s eat some pie and open some presents!
Yup. That pretty much sums up the relationship I have with my family.

Religion and family. Sigh. Been there, done that, got kicked out of the house for three days, and then welcomed back.

Oh, that rings so painfully true. Family.

lol, we just always let my family think we celebrated christmas. It wasn't worth the trouble to explain to them every year that we didn't. and just forget trying to pronounce ayyam-i-ha. HAHA!
