My family still has a couple that come to mind. Every year before Halloween, we go to the same pumpkin patch that we've been going to for years to get pumpkins for the front of the house (as well as go through their "haunted house" and the hay ride to the field of pumpkins) and then eat at the same restaurant. The day has shifted more to be about going out to eat in later years but it's still a good time.
And on Christmas morning, my mom and I (and sometimes my brother) always watch the George C. Scott version of A Christmas Carol.
That's all I can think of at the moment besides yearly Thanksgiving dinner at my great aunt's house but that one seems like it would be more commonplace (maybe not the great aunt part but the regular location for that dinner if you celebrate it).
