Traditions

christmas in the andrews family is somewhat different. every since my husband can remember his grandmother would put on a christmas auction. there would be plenty of wrapped presents under the tree and some of them are junk, some candy, and plenty with money anywhere from change to 20 dollar bills. before the games begin everyone is given 25 fake dollars to bid with. once you are out of money no more bidding for you. nana chooses a present and starts the bidding at a dollar. whoever bids the highest, just like in an auction, gets the gift. once they open it for all the fam to see then they go and choose a present and in doing so become the auctioneer. so today was auction day which also happened to be christmas eve and another thing that the family always has on christmas eve is domino's pizza. yummy. i'm not able to post pictures now from the auction so i will try to post some later.
