My husband and I usually open our gifts at home Christmas morning and then we go to my parents house and spend some time with them. Usually we go to my Grandmaws for christmas dinner.

We have one tradition that has stuck with my sister and I after growing up and moving out of the house. Every Christmas we always get at least 1 pajama item that gets opened on Christmas eve. Every since we were little Mom would buy us a pair of jammies or new slippers or something like that and after dessert we would get to sit around the tree and open our Christmas eve present. Then we would put them on and crawl on the couch with mom and she would read ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas to us. My husband and I don’t read the story anymore, but we do watch a Christmas movie. It’s a tradition that I definitely intend to keep with my children.

Oh and I almost forgot, we also make sure to have a stocking every year. When we were kids my sister and I got to open our stockings while Dad was handing out the presents. My hubby and I always make sure to have a stocking, but we open it whenever since one of us passes out the presents.

We open our presents really late...around 1:00 after church, it helps build the anticipation ^_^

I decorate a plastic tree with my mother and sister before going to sleep early because my parents are yelling at each other too loud to celebrate. Yup. Every year.
