About this book
Somewhere between your first shared tree and the drive home from somebody’s parents, this season becomes the start of everything the two of you will call “how we do Christmas.” By February the details have blurred. This journal catches them while they are still warm.
Every prompt page asks one question and gives you two columns, one for each of you. Fifty paired prompts run from the Christmases you each grew up with to the ones you are dreaming up next, and every page ends with one thing you agree on.
Then two family Christmases become one: inventory both sets of traditions, survive the Food Summit, settle the Great Debates, and sign your own Tradition Treaty. Undated on purpose, with five refillable year spreads at the back, so one December becomes six.
What's inside
- 50 paired prompts across five chapters, answered side by side
- The Great Tradition Negotiation, from the Food Summit to a signed treaty
- Letters, two family recipes, a first Christmas card page, and a gifts log
- Five More Christmases: undated year spreads you refill each December
- Photo and keepsake pages in every chapter, plus hand tracings
