Okay, my son brings home a plate from school that he has diligently decorated with traditonal pictures of Santa, bells, trees, snowflakes, holly and, oh yeah, a soldier. Anyway, the tradition is to leave cookies and milk for Santa on Christmas Eve. I guess it's sort of a bribe: the better the cookies the better the toys he leaves.
Anyway, being in Texas and just having to do things our own way, we will be leaving food and a beer, this year's selection: guacamole, my son has just learned to make it himself and will be making it for everyone as often as possible for the forseeable future.
So, what's your tradition?

We make Christmas tree ornaments. Half as much water as salt, half as much salt as flour - mix it all together, make seperate colours, play with it like playdough, stick little half-paperclips in the top then cook them for a couple hours and dip them in parafin wax and tada!
I still have ornaments we hang up from when I was 3
