Each year, the goals we set, traditions followed and activities with which we are involved are guided by our core values and personal interests.

​Our weekdays are filled with work and school activities, but we still make time for a few fun activities we consider to be our traditions. For example, Joe and Elle have date nights once a week, Alex and Joe have a swim night, and twice a month we eat out at a restaurant as a special treat.

Saturdays is our “Day Off” day where we rest and relax, hang out with friends and each week is never the same. However, every other Saturday is the “Family Call” with our extended families.
Sundays are sports days full of swimming, gymnastics, running, biking or other sporting events unless a birthday party or other special event. And of course, Football Sunday.

Each summer we spend with our extended families. However, without a doubt the traditions we like the best are related to the year-end holiday season. When in New York, each Christmas we buy a Christmas Tree, decorate it together and have Christmas Eve dinner. We also go to see the Rockettes each year.

 

And no matter where we are, we have a world-wide Christmas family Zoom call which is tons of fun!
