Thanksgiving Traditions and Pumpkin Spiced Sticky Buns with Maple Syrup

I hope ya’ll had a great Thanksgiving Day! I know we sure did. We decided to skip out on all families this year (can you imagine?) and stay home for our own Thanksgiving fun!  Although we usually do visit different families every year, we still have our own Thanksgiving traditions that we make sure to include in the day as well!

One tradition is visiting The Symphony of Lights after dinner. It gets us all pumped up for the holiday season!

It’s a mile of drive-thru Christmas light creations!  It takes about 20-30 minutes to go through it all and see the beautiful sites. Well worth our time, so we make sure to do it every year.

You see, our Thanksgiving changes every year. We never know whose house we are going to be at or even how many houses at that. So this year it was nice to stay home in our PJ’s and have a very relaxing day.

Another tradition is breakfast. I always make hubby one of his favorites, pumpkin-spiced sticky buns with maple syrup! Okay, so these babies aren’t homemade, but they are still delicious.

To be perfectly honest, I don’t make dough. I’m not a detailed and precise person, so it’s hard for me to even bake and dough just isn’t my forte. To make up for my imperfections, I just purchase pizza dough at the store. Yes, I totally cheat. Nobody knows but me and you. 😉

Finally, the last tradition is to put up our Christmas tree. Some families go out to a tree farm, I go to our basement and pull out our pre-lit tree. It’s my favorite!

The next day, we decorate it. We decorate our tree differently every year. I went out last night (not on purpose actually) and bought new decorations. I’m excited to see what the tree looks like! It reminds me of buying a new holiday dress…it becomes another tradition.

Share with me!
