On Christmas Eve, we always go to my sister-in-law's house and have our Christmas that night, watching all the kids open their presents. On Christmas Day we always had a nice dinner at home for just the 2 of us. This year will be different. I will be spending Christmas Day alone since my DH of 39 years passed away on Aug. 1st.Cathy Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402868229427304647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-82092826655426924892013-12-21T18:44:53.039-05:002013-12-21T18:44:53.039-05:00We always wait for the kids to get up before we op...We always wait for the kids to get up before we open presents.

His company did not allow employees to have Christmas off unless it fell on their normal day off! Mom would watch for his car and tell us when he pulled up in the driveway. But, until he was back inside the house we were not allowed down the steps. Once it was OK to come down....it was a free for all! Mom and Dad would stand and watch us open our gifts and try to keep it all straight. When we were all done Mom fixed us a huge breakfast and we all sat at the dinning room table and ate our breakfast together. Later Dad snuck back to work having enjoyed Christmas morning with his children.Betty Hamiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14463341314109820954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-30332847197837706832013-12-21T02:25:09.757-05:002013-12-21T02:25:09.757-05:00Aloha, Kim!

We don't do anything major around the holidays, particularly in more recent years as we have had more somber associations with the day but I enjoy watching other people's celebrations. Happy Holidays to you and your family!ELFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00507018016608103452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8575273532904617281.post-42160234913652979692013-12-20T23:38:52.799-05:002013-12-20T23:38:52.799-05:00Lately our tradition has been to have a big family...Lately our tradition has been to have a big family get together at my sister's house in the day on Christmas Eve.
