Family festivities

Judy’s Christmas kicks off in early December when she and her grandchildren have a special tree-trimming day. “I love decorating,” says Judy. “I have a different theme every year.” On the big day, Judy hosts a traditional sit-down dinner for family, continuing the merriment more casually on Boxing Day. “We’ll have a seafood feast or barbecue lunch, maybe walk down to the beach, then head home and carry on the celebrations.”
