Mrs.Myers we most certainly have had a blog already that was very similar to this one...about holiday traditions. every day when we wake up my little brother and i move a little stuffed bear on a calender that counts down to Christmas. On Christmas eve day we make cookies to bring to our relatives' house on Christmas. That night we get to open a small present.
On Christmas Eve we usually go to church and then come home and eat appetizers. My dad's side of the family comes over and we open presents! On Christmas day, we wake up and open our stocking stuffers. My mom makes caramel rolls every Christmas morning. That has been a tradition for as long as I can remember. As we wait for the caramel rolls to get done, we usually sit in our living and chat and drink coffee. Once they are done, we pig out! I try not to though because we go to my mom's side of the family's Christmas that same day so I don't want to be full. We always have a TON of food there. Up at my grandma's we eat, talk, laugh, drink, eat some more, have a good ol' time! :) I always have a great Christmas!
On Christmas Eve we go to my mom's side of the family. It's either at my Grandma's house or at my aunt's house. This year it's at Grandma's because it will be the last Christmas ever in her house. :( We eat a bunch of food, open presents, and play cards! We usually go to church that night and then come home and go to bed. On Christmas day, we wake up, feed the animals, and then come in and open presents. Then we lay around and eat breakfast. Around 11 we go to my dad's side which is at my Grandma's too. We eat TONS of food there too and open presents. Then we're all so full that we just lay around for the rest of the day. :):)
On Christmas Eve, I go to church with my family then go to my grandparents house. My aunt and uncle come and we do the normal Chrismas stuff such as eating, opening gifts, and singing songs. On Christmas we sleep until forever and then get up to open gifts. Then my grandparents come over and we just play games or whatever all day. On New Years we usually have a party with my great aunts and uncles, but this year we may not becuase one of my uncles and one of my aunts are really sick. Yup, my Christmas is full of old people. Oh! I watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas about seven times. The End.
On Christmas Eve, my family and I go to church go to my grandmas house until church at midnight, then we go home and sleep. We wake up early in the morning, around 6-6:30 a.m. and we go through our humungus stockings, then unwrap the presents. We usually get done around 10ish, then we play with our gifts untill noon, and we head back to my grandma's house for a feast, and family fun time! :) This is usually my Christmas traditions!
On Christmas Eve, I always open one present at my grandma's house and have her party mix and slow gin slush (shhh, don't tell anybody.). Then I wake up on Christmas morning and open presents. Then my dad and I watch the Nightmare Before Christmas. (:
On Christmas Eve, we go to church and then go to my grandparents and open up one present. Then we go home and go to sleep and everything. Then we all get up around seven and open the rest of our things from our immediate family. After that we have breakfast and then go to someones house where the extended family all gets together. We have a big dinner there and then open the rest of the presents. We all hang out for the afternoon and then go home. We usually have the Christmas with the other side of the family on New Years day.
Well christmas eve for me is shopping with my mother all day to try and find dad something at the last minute. Then we go to the church servise with the whole family. Its the only time of year wehre we do that to i might add. Then on the day of christmas sarah wakes us up at the crack of dawn and so we go downstairs see the presents then rush to wake mom and dad up they make us go back to sleep of course though. Then at around 8 is whne we open the presents and play with them and all that fun stuff. The we head over to mom grandmothers and have a family christmas there to. We normally saty till around 11 or until Bear desides to get crabby. Either way its a lot of fun. Then the next christmas i have is January with my dads side.
On christmas eve we go to my grandpa's house in elmwood. I spend christmas with my mom and sister at home and then we go shopping on the 26th. I told you about the whole grandma thing and orange juice making haha...but yes, the other blog has a much more detailed explanation.
Christmas Day morning everyone (but me) gets up extra early in the morning. I have no idea why they just don't sleep in as my mum is keen on making sure no one opens anything until everyone is together. Anyway, we pretty much open presents whenever I get up. After we have our Christmas dinner with my grandparents, uncle, whoever else is there later that afternoon. Then more presents are opened, and ... yeah.
For Christmas my familly goes to my grandmas house. We have been doing that as long as I can remember. My uncle and his family come from Oshkosh for the day. We open presents and watch football all day.
We like to go for a walk after we open our presents and look at the sky. We then come back and warm ourselves by the fire and watch a nice Christmas movie. We also eat our French silk pie with it. The next day we go to La Crosse and have another two Christmases. We usually make cookies together, as well as help set up for our dinner, usually consisting of ham, cranberries, rolls, a vegetable and some sparkling grape juice. Then we always get a present on our plate before dinner. And we always go to the beautiful light display down by the river in La Crosse.
Well, usually a week before christmas we get our Christmas tree. Christmas Eve is usually at my house, but this year it is going to be at my aunt's lake house so we can go ice skating. Christmas Day I will be at my grandpa's house this year for a breakfast/lunch. Usually after that we go to the other side of the family, but because my aunt is flying down the 28th we are having christmas the 29th at my dad's side of the family.
My sister and I open presents in the morning, starting with our stockings. Hopefully dad makes us a delicious breakfast. Later, we go to my grandma's for Christmas. My mom's side of the family is never-ending. There is so many little kids running around...I honestly couldn't tell you all their names and who's kid they are. It's very chaotic. After the kids exchange gifts and run upstairs to play, the adults start their White Elephant. That's always the best.

Sierra; I know that we have had a similar blog. However, about ten of you wrote down that you wanted to blog about this again.
