I started a new tradition this Christmas with my son Grayson. Christmas Tea. We went to the Ritz Carlton in Marina Del Rey for a Christmas Tea.
He was so excited and loved everything. They served him sparkling cider in a champagne glass and the raspberries had gold leaf on them - which blew his mind! -
He kept saying - " I am so happy" - It was such a special day for us. One that I hope becomes a tradition every Christmas. 
This SOOO reminds me of taking my Jen to tea at the Ritz in Boston - it's a wonderful tradition (and her birthday is in Dec. so we always got holiday cheer and birthdays wishes!) Looks like you are having a very fun holiday season, girl!!

What a great experience - and good training, too! I'm sure it will be a fond tradition and memory.

You know how to live! It is one party after another. I loved the part where he said he was so happy. What a special relationship, and a nice new tradition to share. Happy Holiday Season Gina!

Oh, 'gina, without question, you are starting a fantastic tradition on many levels. Hooray to you for doing it. Hooray to Grayson for "getting it." He is absolutely adorable! Enjoy the holiday season completely. Look forward to a "Play Day" with you early in 2008. Thanks for sharing your life--your lifestyle--with us. Love to you and yours.
