Neighborhood Holiday Traditions

Our neighborhood has a lovely tradition of lighting luminaries.  The entire neighborhood just looks so cozy and charming. 

My valiant husband tried to light our luminaries in near-blizzard conditions last year.  The kids and I watched him trudge through the snow to light each one, only to have each luminary be extinguished by wind gusts as he lit the next. We may have giggled. 

That's the beauty of traditions.  They provide great memories and good laughs.

Does your neighborhood have any special holiday traditions?
