It was ALWAYS Christmas Eve at Grandmom's, Christmas day with Dad's family. When my Grandmom passed away, mom started to do the Christmas Eve thing... its a huge affair with the whole family there. At least 50 people. Many of whom I never see except Christmas Eve. I see my dad's family Christmas Eve now too. Now I spend Christmas Day with hubby's family.

We always open one gift from each other Christmas Eve... usually something little, and no, its not new PJs!
