i tried the search button and didnt come up with anything so hopefully im ok. mods, feel free to close if im wrong.

what are your guy's christmas traditions with your family or friends?

me and my dad hang up the christmas tree while litening to christmas songs on the radio and bake dog treats for my dog but my friends and i do secret santa and get as many people into it as possible.

We go to my aunts on the 24th and stay up all night until 12. Open up one present [ sometimes more ] then go back to playing games or something. The 25th, we open more presents and dont go to bed until the 26th :D

we dont really have a set tradition except we go to my grandmas on the 24th and then every year we pick someone from my dads side of the family to have a christmas party at...usually the day after christmas. we only do christmas on the 24th at my grandmas (on my moms side) because he brother died and theyre the only family we have from her side.

Every year each member of the family gets a new ornament. It started when I was born and we didn't have a lot of money, so we could only buy one ornament at a time.

Now our tree has almost 50 ornaments on it. _smile.gif

Hmm, about a week or so before Christmas, my family goes to Rockefellar Center to see the Christmas Tree. We go to St. Patrick's Cathedral and then we go Christmas shopping.
On Christmas, my parents would have my brother, sister and I sing Christmas songs before we open the present.

We usually go to one of my aunts house and everybody talks and eat, then at 12 all the kids open their presents.

Our family is too asian. We go to my grandpa's house and eat Korean food and play old Korean games and the adults do adult things and kids are bored and we give presents.

My family's tradition is for me to go and visit my dad in Arizona. But this year I decided to change it up a bit, and stay with my mom for Christmas. No Arizona this year. I never really have a big family gathering, just me and one parent. Fun stuff. stubborn.gif

Well my dad's side of the family does christmas oddly...
Like I only get two presents, one from my grandparents and one from a cousin
They draw names and do it, like:
Kara gives to Hayley
Katie gives to Kara
Hayley gives to Sean
Bradley gives to Katie

type of thing....
and then they do like a white elephant type of thing...and we eat...and thats it.

on my moms side everyone gives to whoever they want, so I usually end up with 20+ presents....and we read the whole christmas story in the bible about Jesus' birth and we eat, and hang out...I love my moms side more...lol because they are nice pinch.gif

well on thanksgiving, we wake up early and watch the macy's day parade on tv. then at around noon we go to my grandparents' house in long beach island and spend the day there, eating an early turkey dinner with yum food. then we come back home and stop at my aunt's house and visit them for a couple of hours.

on christmas eve, my dad's side of the family meets at my grandma's house where we exchange gifts, eat italian food, and play gift games. it's funnn.

christmas day---me and my siblings wake up and open presents from my parents. then my grandparents and aunt/uncle/cousins come over and we celebrate christmas day at my house.

Christmas is really actually getting on my nerves right now. It's too early for this. I refuse to acknowledge it until after Thanksgiving (which is a holiday I'd rather skip). So much Christmas music makes me twitch. Like, even in the band room. Percussionists practicing ridiculously easy concert band Christmas music in order to suck up. Ugh.

Welllll, I don't celebrate Christmas. But my family usually just has like Chinese or goes to a movie...Something like that...

This year, if my boyfriend doesn't go to Canada to see his family, I might go to his house.
