Christmas is a little over 11 weeks away, and it always seems to sneak up on me!
This year, we’re doing Christmas a little differently. Our children are all adults now, so instead of spending a lot of money on things, we decided to give our family the gift of **time, memories, and experiences.**
Life gets busy, so we had a family meeting and decided on a family vacation to **Sedona and the Grand Canyon.** We picked a week, and on Christmas, I’ll surprise them with all the details!
We’ve done this a couple of times before, and I absolutely love it. The things under the tree may eventually be forgotten, but the memories we make together will last a lifetime.
I think we may have started a new family tradition: **one family vacation as our Christmas gift each year.**
Have you thought about giving your family a vacation instead of more stuff? I’d love to help you explore some ideas!
