Traditionally, we open presents on Christmas Eve and then get together with my parents and sister and bro-in-law on Christmas day. Here are a few of the traditions for our two days of Christmas.
Christmas Eve:
Open presents while listening to Christmas Carols
Have a fire
Lay around in our pajamas all day
Have a special but small dinner (Christmas is the feasting day)
Watch a Christmas movie
Christmas Day:
Everyone meets up for lunch. We usually have a traditional Christmas meal and stuff ourselves.
Bake Christmas cookies
Open presents after lunch (we either draw names or do a couple's gift for the adults)
Have a fire
Listen to Christmas Carols
Laugh and have a wonderful time together
Watch the parade
Play Chicken Foot
Have left overs for dinner
It is usually very laid back, and that's how I prefer the holidays. What Christmas Day traditions do you love?
Merry Christmas!
Amanda
