Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

When do you and your family open presents. In my family we get a new ornament and pajamas every year we open those on Christmas Eve but everything else is Christmas morning. So I'm voting Christmas morning.

We usual have it on christmas eve. we go to my unlce larrys house then come home and open up the gifts.

12am Christmas morning.
We always did it that early because as a kid I couldn't wait to open my presents from 'Santa' (who could?) now here I am 20 years old and still unable to wait lol.

We open our gifts on Christmas morning. We go to my mothers on Christmas Eve for that side of the family's get together.

Stormtracker TF · 11-26-2007, 06:58 PM

Both. We open some on Christmas Eve usually, and the bulk of them on Christmas Morning.

Mr. Television · 11-26-2007, 06:58 PM

Christmas day

EmoJoe · 11-26-2007, 07:08 PM

Christmas morning with my immediate family, then Christmas Day with my cousins/aunts/uncles.

Christmas Day!!

Both, this year it's Christmas Eve at my Mom's and Christmas day at my Dad's.

Christmas Eve was our usual thing, most of the time we wouldn't even wait until midnight. My parents got tired of policing the tree area and just let us dig in at around 11:30 or 11:45. One year, I'll never forget, I was watching "TattleTales" on Game Show Network on Christmas Eve and it was around...maybe 5:30pm. My parents were just like..."You can start opening stuff if you want, yea..." Those were some good old days...

Xmas eve, in part to the old tradition of Xmas at Granmans place, then coming back home and doing that before everyone showed up (At one time, we had people from as far as Montreal staying over for 2 or 3 days, at Xmas)

YoliUSA · 11-26-2007, 08:58 PM

We always open our presents on Christmas morning and even though I'm 19, I still get up pretty early to open my presents

I always open presents on Christmas morning too.

dawsongirl · 11-26-2007, 09:56 PM

Christmas Morning. We used to open presents from aunts/uncles/grandmas on Christmas Eve, but Grandma is poor and the kids are too old, so now we just play a game for $5 prizes.

On Christmas Eve we open one present, and then on Christmas morning you can open the rest.
