I'd celebrate the major American holidays to an extent that is comfortable for you all. Maybe you could also try looking into one of the places that take phone orders or even online orders for turkey and other traditional Thanksgiving items for delivery in Japan...? <br><br>(Thanks for visiting my blog, btw!)emihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05417074448702987272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809924206725113744.post-54248269564322749952008-11-26T08:00:31.474+09:002008-11-26T08:00:31.474+09:00I don't have any answers for you, we are strug...I don't have any answers for you, we are struggling with the same things. Although my husband and I share the same culture, living 2200 miles from our families mean that we have to invent our own traditions. For both of us, our favorite memories are of times spent with large extended families, and that just isn't possible here. Since the baby is still only 8 months, we aren't putting too much pressure on ourselves this year. But it's something that is always on my mind.Sunnyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10964875388384777306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6809924206725113744.post-851180427633367032008-11-27T19:23:58.547+09:002008-11-27T19:23:58.547+09:00My husband (Japanese) is not a holiday celebrator....My husband (Japanese) is not a holiday celebrator. Not Japanese nor US holidays. I make an effort to do something around Christmas - decorate the house and make a dinner of sorts. But, we are basically failing in the holiday realm. Now that we have a toddler, we need to ramp up the celebrations so she will have those important traditions. Not sure how!Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05848246862878846083noreply@blogger.com
