The abundance of loving holiday traditions shared by<br />
family and friends keep Jessica Brainerd of Greenbrier<br />
excited about Christmas year after year.<br />
Jessica recalls her favorite Christmas memories when<br />
she and her husband, Brent, decorate their home for the<br />
holidays. “Christmas has always been my favorite holiday.<br />
It was my late MaMaw’s favorite holiday as well. I enjoyed<br />
going and seeing all of my family on Christmas Eve and<br />
Christmas day, as well as Christmas celebrated at church. I<br />
can still remember the smells and the sights in each of their<br />
homes, including the staple recipes that were made and how<br />
the trees were decorated.”<br />
