A Christmas Tradition

I didn't think of this until after I wrote my post earlier for the prompt. My family, as a Christmas tradition, goes to the movies. Now that my sisters and I are all grown, my family usually opens our gifts on Christmas Eve, after we get home from my Mom's side of the family celebration at Grandpa's house.

Since we all are old enough not to do the Santa thing anymore, we wanted to start a new tradition. Since my sisters and I were in high school, we went to the movies on Christmas Day, in the afternoon. We've done this for about 7 years now. It is the biggest deal for us now- we debate for weeks ahead of time, trying to agree on which movie we will see. We all speculate on which movies will be released in time to have showings on Christmas day. This is our new Christmas tradition, and will probably continue until we have kids of our own, and we start the Santa thing all over again.
