Hi James I'm feeling a little down today, can you tell me more about shannonbuddietommy? How do they celebrate the holidays? ❤️🎄✨

I'm sorry you're feeling down today! I hope these help cheer you up a little!

Christmases look kind of normal for them before the twins are born. They'll usually hang out with some close-by family on Christmas Eve, have the morning to themselves and then go around to Bobby's place for dinner.

The twins are 7 months old on their first Christmas and they're determined to make it a good one. Shannon's mom passed away a few years back, Tommy and Buck don't talk to their families so they default to Eddie's family on Christmas Eve. Abuela, who dotes on her great-grandchildren, insists on flying to LA and stays with Pepa. They have a big celebration with food and some presents on Christmas Eve with them, where Eddie and Buck get more than a little drunk and Tommy and Shannon have to look after them as well as Chris and the babies.

Christmas day they spend with Maddie and Chim, Hen and Karen, and Bobby and Athena at Bathena's house. Bobby makes an amazing glazed ham which thoroughly puts everyone into a food coma and they spend the evening watching the twins scooting across the floor (Thalia is just on the cusp of crawling but Theo is very much in his army crawl stage)

Some Christmases they have just the 7 of them. Christopher is allowed to sleep in as long as he wants those years, unless it gets past midday and then one of his parents will poke him awake. Generally Thalia will run out of patience before that though and run into his room and demand he wakes, assuming she can wriggle past Tommy or Eddie.

When the twins are 3, Shannon comes up with the idea of taking them on a drive to see the Christmas lights. Buck and Eddie put the kids to sleep early while Tommy and Shannon plan out the route. It's hard to get the twins down because they're so excited about seeing the pretty lights but they manage it and a couple hours later off they go. Christopher comes with them and starts making notes for their own display.

Thalia is certain she can catch Santa delivering the presents so she convinces Theo to stay up with her. Their parents don't realise until Tommy narrowly misses being seen by Thalia while he and Eddie are placing the presents under the tree and Buck and Shannon are drinking the milk and cookies they left out.

One year Buck almost trips over Theo, who had fallen asleep on the stairs waiting for Santa with his sister. Thalia got bored when Theo fell asleep and went back to her own bed.
