Traditions abound throughout December. We wanted to share with you how to make the traditions that you celebrate meaningful in your marriage and family.

The two things that valuable traditions exhibit are: 1) they involve quality time and 2) they require participants to be fully present.

A lot of people look at us (Tony & Alisa) and think this is just the type of marriage that we have – we got lucky. But there is nothing “special” about us. We have not always been happily married. We’ve been through the trenches.

We have been through seasons when we didn’t talk to each other because there was nothing to say. We didn’t put any effort into ourselves or our marriage for years.
