    New Christmas Tradition

    This year I am starting a new Christmas tradition. Last year, my wife and I went to our Christmas Eve service. I went kilted despite the 18 degree F temperature. This year I wore my kilt to our family Thanksgiving dinner. It went over with some laughs and snide remarks, generally positive though. Yet, most of my younger relatives didn't know what to think. They gave me a wide berth as if scared or weirded out. Mostly, the experience was fun and positive. Then, yesterday, at my mother's birthday party, my mother asked me, "Where is your kilt? I hoped to see you in it." It meant alot that she liked it that much. So, I told her, "Wait until Christmas." This will be 2 years in a row. I think it may extend to any Christmas dinner, concert/chior, caroling, church/religious event, or anything specifically associated with Christmas. Many of you already do this being daily wearers of the kilt. Any thoughts? Maybe some advise?
    Cheers and Happy Christmas,
    KC
