The holidays always make me pause and think about the moments that truly matter. Real estate moves fast with new clients, new closings, and new chapters, but this time of year brings everything back to what feels real. It reminds us of home, family, and the traditions that ground us.
For this month’s blog, we asked our team to share the holiday traditions that mean the most to them. The We Close Deals Team feels like a family in its own way, and reading everyone’s traditions reminded me how much heart sits behind the work we do. At the end of the day, we are simply people who love holding onto the things that feel like home and that is what makes this time of year feel so special.
Discover the holiday traditions that make the season special for each of our agents.

Having all of my family over on Christmas Day and making a huge breakfast for them.

The day after Thanksgiving my family and I always go pick and cut down our Christmas tree then when we come home, we blast early 2000s NSYNC and Mariah Carey music and put up my late grandmother's Christmas village. It's the best day (besides Christmas morning with our kids)
Ashley Marrama
Give back! My family used to volunteer at the food pantry, and the past two years we have volunteered and help spear head giving Christmas trees to veterans as a token of appreciation at different events and local tree farms.
Elizabeth Duffy
Watching Christmas movies, wrapping presents, and eating homemade sugar cookies!
Chelsea Brennan
We do a big Yankee swap with family and friends at our house on MV! They swap has such a mix of gifts that it becomes so weird and fun all at the same time
Brooke Coughlin
Wrapping 10 holiday books and opening one each night prior to Christmas with little man. Also family Christmas PJs

Maddie Parvey
Watching a Christmas movie with my family on Christmas Eve before we go to bed.
Ben Carbone
Doing my family's "Make a Gift" every Christmas where it is a yankee swap however, rather than buying the gift we have to craft the gift.

After opening gifts Christmas morning and having breakfast, my family packs up our new clothes, shoes etc. and we head into Boston for a few days and go to dinner, shop and spend time together!
The best part of holiday traditions is how meaningful they are. They stay with us, grow with us, and become the moments we look forward to every year. Whether it is the sounds, the scents, or the simple joys of being together, these moments are the ones we carry with us long after the holidays are over.
Thank you to everyone who shared their tradition with us. It is a reminder of how connected we are and how much warmth and intention we lead with. We hope this inspires you to start a new tradition or continue the ones that already mean something to you.
