Spending Thanksgiving Day with our family. After dinner we all go to our small town for the Christmas celebration of turning on the lights. The stores are open that night so you can shop for Christmas. Music is playing. It is one of our happiest times of the season.
Jodi Neal
Opening one gift on Christmas Eve with the family, having hot chocolate or apple cider. Kids going wild.

My daughter and grandson come over to decorate our Christmas tree. She loves telling our 14 year old grandson about each ornament.

Every year we fill brown paper lunch bags with peanuts, a piece of fruit and a chocolate bar to give to guests when they leave our home. This was done at church on Christmas Eve when I was growing up. Now we do it throughout the holiday season.

Attending the beautiful midnight mass!

All the women meeting at one house two weeks before Christmas to make homemade gnocchi, raviolis, and pepper onion sausage bread for Christmas dinner. Men take the kids out for the day. We have so much fun with a little vino in the mix. LOL

The Whole family reads The Polar Express on Christmas Eve before going to bed. Each person reads 1 page and hands it to the person next to them. We all sign the book under the date every year.

We would put up the nativity and leave baby Jesus away. Before bed on Christmas Eve one of my children would set baby Jesus in the manger. Each year the kids rotated who would have that honor.
We would bake a cake for Christmas day and sing Happy Birthday, Jesus to celebrate his birth.
Cathy Hinz
The family gathers at our house on Christmas Eve for a big lasagna dinner. But we also celebrate our English heritage by having the Christmas poppers. Everyone wears their tissue crown and we play with the toys that fly out of them. Then we read the jokes that come with them. Lots of fun!
Tanya McLean
We have a family Christmas breakfast at our house every year.

Staying up all night and wrapping gifts! And eating Santa’s cookies and milk. Then after the kids wake up…they must wait for the parents to get up to open presents.
