Enjoy reading about these well-known Christmas traditions while you’re waiting for Santa to arrive on the 24th.

 

Christmas Traditions Through the Years

The holiday traditions all started somewhere. Most think the traditions are very personal, because they are “our decorations.” However, most of these traditions have old and deep roots that make them even more special. Below are some of the history lessons surrounding these Christmas staples.

 

Christmas traditions in Hagerstown, MD. Complete Power Wash does pressure washing before Christmas gatherings.Christmas Trees

Decorated trees date back to Germany in the Middle Ages. European settlers popularized Christmas trees in America by the early 19th century. A New York woodsman is credited with opening the first U.S. Christmas tree lot in 1851. The American Christmas Tree Association estimates 81 percent of houses with Christmas trees are artificial and 19 percent are real.

Advent Calendars

This tradition started in Germany in 1903 by a publisher. It offered a way for children to count down to Christmas by opening one “door” a day to reveal a Bible passage, poem or small gift. Today’s U.S. version often uses candy as the daily gift.

Ugly Christmas Sweaters

This now-popular fashion began in Canada in the 1980s and became an international trend in 2001. According to Fox Business, the ugly sweater industry is a multi-million business. There’s even an Ugly Christmas Sweater Party Book.

Door Wreaths

Wreaths have been around since the ancient Greek and Roman times. The evergreen Christmas wreath took on a Christian meaning, symbolic of Christ’s crown of thorns and blood, according to the New York Times. Today’s wreaths come in all varieties and are most often seen as a secular winter tradition.

A Visit from Saint Nicholas

Made popular by the book The Night Before Christmas. The reading of this classic by poet Clement Moore is an American holiday tradition. According to the U.S. Library of Congress, the author and professor at the General Theological Seminary in Manhattan, was “embarrassed by the work. It was made public without his knowledge in December 1823. Moore did not publish it under his name until 1844.”

Poinsettias

These plants native to Central America, known at the Christmas flower, were brought to the United States in the 1820s. They were brought by the country’s first U.S. ambassador to Mexico, botanist Joel Roberts Poinsett. It was a California horticulturist who brought the plants to the masses 100 years later. He donated the plants to TV shows, and, according to the Los Angeles Times, the poinsettia became the best-selling potted plant in the nation by 1986.

Thanksgiving Around the World

Most people know what to expect with Thanksgiving in the U.S. It’s all about family, turkey and football. But a number of other nations celebrate in different ways. Here’s a list of the eight countries and territories that set aside a holiday to give thanks. Click here to read all the details.

1. Canada: It may surprise most to learn that Canada’s first Thanksgiving celebration actually predates America’s first holiday. In 1578, an expedition led by the English navigator Martin Frobisher held a ceremony to give thanks for the safety of their fleet.

Thanksgiving guests are the reason to pressure wash before the holidays

2. Germany: The German equivalent of Thanksgiving is Erntedankfest, or “harvest festival of thanks.” During a typical Erntedankfest, celebrants may carry an Erntekrone — harvest crown of grains — fruit and flowers to the church in a solemn procession.

3. Liberia: Freed slaves from the United States established Liberia in West Africa in the early 1820s with help from the American Colonization Society. In the early 1880s, Liberia’s government passed an act declaring the first Thursday of November as National Thanksgiving Day. Today, Liberia’s Thanksgiving tables boast items such as spicy roast chicken and mashed cassavas. Live music and dancing are also part of the Thanksgiving tradition.      

4. Japan: Japan’s variation of Thanksgiving, Kinro Kansha no Hi (Labor Thanksgiving Day) evolved from an ancient rice harvest festival, Niinamesai. Today, the public observes it as a national holiday, but with none of the huge feasting you’ll see on the American holiday. To mark the occasion, children often make thank-you cards for policemen, firefighters or other municipal workers.

5. Norfolk Island: This remote island in the Pacific Ocean is another unlikely place for a holiday celebration with American roots. Its Thanksgiving tradition dates back to the mid-1890s, when the American trader Isaac Robinson decided to put on an American-style Thanksgiving service in the All Saints Church in Kingston.

6. Grenada: Every October 25, people on this West Indian island celebrate their own Thanksgiving Day. It marks the anniversary of a joint Caribbean and U.S. military invasion of Grenada in 1983 to oust a corrupt government. To show their own gratitude, many people in towns and villages hosting the soldiers invited them to dine and celebrate with them, even surprising them with such non-native island foods as turkey, cranberry and potatoes.

7. The Netherlands: The people of today’s Leiden continue to celebrate their ties with the Mayflower’s passengers by holding non-denominational church services on the fourth Thursday of November.

8. Puerto Rico: After becoming a territory of the United States in the late 19th century, its residents enthusiastically adopted many of the traditions of the Happy Thanksgiving from Complete Power Wash in Hagerstown, MDholiday. They celebrate it on the same day (fourth Thursday in November) and put their own twist on the traditional turkey feast.

Random Thanksgiving Trivia

1. What year was the celebration that is most commonly considered to be the first Thanksgiving?

A: 1621. This is the celebration that people most often talk about when they are talking about the “first” Thanksgiving. But there are others that are claimed to be the first Thanksgiving. There was another celebration in Plymouth in 1623 and one in Boston in 1631 that people claim was the actual first Thanksgiving.

2. How long did the first Thanksgiving celebration last?

A: Three days. It was celebrated much earlier than our current celebration, possibly in late September. There were about 50 European settlers and around 90 native Americans who attended the 3-day feast.

3. Under which president did Thanksgiving become an annual holiday?

A: Abraham Lincoln. The U.S. has celebrated Thanksgiving off and on since 1774. In 1789 George Washington made a proclamation that the country would celebrate a day of thanksgiving to God on November 26th. Some presidents after him continued the tradition, declaring different days of Thanksgiving. But it wasn’t until a proclamation by Lincoln in 1863 that the last Thursday of November became the official Thanksgiving holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving4. In what year did both the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and America’s Thanksgiving Parade start?

A: 1924. Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade was started by Louis Bamberger in Newark, New Jersey but was transferred to New York City where it is now held by Macy’s. America’s Thanksgiving Parade in Detroit was inspired by Eaton’s Santa Claus Parade in Toronto, Ontario.

5. Which president was the first to give a turkey a presidential pardon?

A: Ronald Reagan. John F. Kennedy was the first president on record for unofficially sparing a Turkey in 1963. The Reagan administration in 1987 gave the first official presidential pardon to a turkey as a joke. The turkey was spared and put into a petting zoo. George H. Bush made it an annual tradition in 1989 and each president since has carried on the tradition.

November is Energy Awareness Month

November is Energy Awareness Month

It’s Energy Awareness Month and costs are expected to be higher this year.

We care about clean homes and energy-efficient homes. November is the month to make sure your home is clean and ready for the holidays. It’s also the month to make sure you are ready to keep energy costs in check during the winter months.

November is Energy Awareness MonthThis is a great time of year to take an “energy inventory” around your home and in your life. Using energy wisely makes sense for the planet and for your monthly budget. Turning out lights in unoccupied rooms and keeping the thermostat at a comfortable temperature is a good start. You can go as far as closing down vents and closing doors to unoccupied rooms. Make sure rooms with pipes have enough heat, because you don’t want to pay a plumber what you didn’t have to pay for heating fuel.

Another easy change is replacing traditional light bulbs with LED bulbs. Larger home upgrades like energy-saving appliances — including a new furnace — along with new windows can pay for themselves in a few years. Here is a great article on the top 21 things to do to save energy around the house.

And while you’re researching and planning those changes, contact the Complete Power Wash office in Hagerstown, MD to schedule a cleaning of your home’s exterior. Make it ready for the Thanksgiving and Christmas guests that will be showing up in just a few weeks. Weather and availability tightens the schedule as the year comes to a close, so reach out soon.

This is time of year is for Halloween fun, November plans and cleaning leaves from your yard AND your gutters.

The kids are getting ready. They are picking out their Halloween costumes and dreaming of a night of trick-or-treating.

Soon after that, families will be filling their evenings and weekends with Fall plans in the greater Hagerstown area, when they aren’t raking leaves.

“Why Should I Care if I Have Clean Gutters?”

dirty gutters to be cleaned by Complete Power Wash in Hagerstown, MDClean gutters work properly. Dirty gutters do not work properly. This is simple, but how many homeowners think about their gutters and what’s on the inside? And how many think about what happens to rain water and melting snow that backs up in clogged gutters?

The cleaning professionals at CPW know that mold, mildew and other fungi lead to health risks, such as severe allergies, that result in respiratory illness. The triggering of an asthma attack is the most dangerous possibility. The more severe asthma cases can cause hospitalization or even death.

Misdirected rain water can also damage your home’s structure. The wood behind the gutters can rot. The house’s exterior walls can be damaged. And, if the water continues to pool around the base of the house, the foundation can be compromised, causing thousands of dollars of damage.
