Yes, we have a public holiday for Boxing Day too, if it falls on a week day.

We will probably spend Christmas morning at my parents' house, and have lunch with a family friend and her family. It's the first Christmas without her grandmother, who died earlier this year at the age of 92, so it'll be a bittersweet lunch in some ways.

Shane's parents live on the other side of the country, so there will be phone calls as he'll be missing his folks.

Later in the afternoon I love going to my friend Sue's house; it's become a girly tradition for us to sit in the kitchen and make salads for dinner, gossiping all the while
