Janice 12-13-2008, 11:01 PM Where are you spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day? New Years Eve? Do you have any work parties to attend or get-togethers with friends or family? Are you attending any plays or the lighting of a Christmas tree? Holiday concerts? Kid's recitals.
Christmas Eve - Home Alone
Christmas Day - My aunt's for dinner. Back home, my husband's kids will come over for dessert and gifts.
A couple of my friends are getting together to go out for a holiday dinner, the week before Christmas.
New Year's Eve - Home, as always. Anyone is free to come by for a holiday drink.

Mr. Television 12-14-2008, 01:01 AM I don't know about Christmas Eve but Christmas Day I'm going to my sister's house. We'll open up the presents over there and have dinner as well. She's cooking. :faint: :lol:
catlover79 12-14-2008, 01:15 AM Gosh, I don't even know, things are so hectic. At least I have Christmas off. I know that. I guess I'll just go along with whatever the family decides to do.
PlayOn 12-14-2008, 03:52 AM my family goes all out for every holiday, so Christmas Eve, we're going to have lunch (we mainly have dinner, but we've been crazy busy for the past few months, getting things ready for one of my cousin's wedding. the last thing the women in my family want to do is cook. thank goodness for the sandwich. lol) i may not be there, tho. i maybe at my cousins. her boyfriends side of the family open gifts on Christmas Eve. (i'm not. i'll be a good boy and wait. lol)
Christmas Day: if I stay with my cousin, we'll go to my aunts where my mom and dad will be already. we'll eat breakfast, open presents, then play Dirty Santa.
After that, I'm going to my granny's and (maybe) eat breakfast there. and open presents. that evening, me and my little cousins may drive back to TN with my mom and dad and spend a few weeks with them.
HOPE EVERYBODY HAS A GOOD ONE! :)
Family Ties Forever! 12-14-2008, 04:39 AM Today I was told we will spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at my brother's house. We will leave the evening of the 23rd and stay until the 27th or 28th. I will be without access to the internet during that time. They have a computer, but not a large print program.
I'm sorry to hear that you don't have plans on Christmas Eve Janice. I hope the dinner at your Aunt's on Christmas Day and the subsequent dessert with your stepkids goes well. I hope you get to enjoy getting together with your friends the week before.
Waterston_Fan 12-14-2008, 11:43 AM Well, the day before Christmas Eve my aunt and her dog, drive down for a few days.
Christmas Eve, for once I don't have to work that day. :)
My middle sister, brother in law, niece and her boyfriend as well as my cousin, her daughter but don't know about her other daughter since she works are coming over from up north. They live like an hour from San Diego. Then those who are there for dinner, we open presents. Cousins and Sister and her family leave then we watch TV for a bit then go to bed.
Christmas Day. Get up, watch TV, don't dress and open Presents then I probably will be watching shows that I got for Christmas on DVD's!!
Chocoholic 12-14-2008, 11:58 AM My work Christmas party was last night. I also have two other parties next weekend.
Christmas Eve, we're going to my aunt's house for my mom's family's traditional Christmas Eve dinner. Then, we'll go to Midnight Mass.
Christmas Day, we'll just stay home, open presents, and spend time together as a family.
New Year's eve & day- no plans yet.
MickeyMac 12-14-2008, 04:35 PM Christmas Eve me and my friends do a CD exchange. What we do is make a CD and them make X number of copies and exchange them with each other. I am also sending some out to friends who live out of town.
Christmas Day is probably with the family
New Years, no idea yet.

That's a great idea. I made a few mix CDs that I'm going to give to the members of my church band and some of my co-workers. :cool:
