That sounds wonderful ! I'm glad you were able to work it out in such a happy way. I'm all for new traditions, when the old ones become hard to manage.

How did you spend your holidays?
My brother had a family party at his house on the 15th, so we could celebrate a good while without anyone being pushed to go somewhere else. :)..... then I met with various friends here and there and Christmas Eve (and the day before) I put on good Christmas music, wrapped presents, baked and cooked lots of Christmas goodies and Christmas Eve when all was done I watched Scrooge, the 1951 version with Allastair Sim (my fav version) while eating popcorn and having a toddy. :) Christmas morning I put the last bit of food together and went to my Mom's around noon where the family celebrated some more and opened presents. Later I thought I would step next door to my Uncle's house like I sometimes do on Christmas night, but one of my cousins had fallen and had a bad leg break a couple of days before (which I didn't know)..... and my Aunt's Uncle on her side had to go to assisted living and she takes care of her whole family..... so that happened close (and I didn't know that !) .....so they did not have their supper that night, which meant I was happily on my own to watch shows on my new firestick and eat leftover food and goodies from the lunch. It was ALL good. I did step over next door the following day for a while to give them some goodies and breakfast gift cards and had a nice visit with them all to myself. :)
Today one of my other cousins came by and gave me the most beautiful bright red cardinal yard stake made by a local artist/craftsman. It has it's wings spread like it is taking off. I think he uses paint like is on cars and "bakes" it at high temps so they do not fade immediately like lot of hard things you buy in the stores. I was thrilled to get it and cannot wait till spring. So... .it seems Christmas was still going on today !
That sounds absolutely delightful! My kids got me a new huge TCL Roku HDR TV and I can't wait to watch movies. My old TV was 10 years old and was having issues, so it had just become easier not to bother watching anyting . Do you love your Firestick?
