Hi Guys, Sorry this has taken me so long. It's been a very busy week :) Hope everyone is having a good Christmas Eve. I'll try to get another one out soon! Merry Christmas everyone!( Merry Christmas everyone! )
We always have fried shrimp on Christmas Eve (which I am getting ready for (:), then we have lunch, then we have Christmas.
Before Christmas though, we all draw names, everyone under 16 draws another person under 16 and then the adults draw. Then the adults do a Chinese gift exchange where you buy some nice and goofy presents, then they draw numbers and it is just weird. Lol. I guess I will have to learn the rules... I am turning 15 in... 17 days... Oh wow! Lol. And when we open up, we always go youngest to oldest. I'm like right in the middle. Lol. Eight before me, and 10 after me (:
We do a White Elephant gift exchange at work. It's sort of like that in that all the gifts have to be goofy but you have to already have it in your home. You're not supposed to buy anything. The goofier the better lol!
CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!veridia11December 24 2010, 23:36:50 UTC
Our tradition is to eat my dads FAMOUS potato soup (Christmas eve and Christmas dinner) and get up at five thirty. We're not allowed to open anything before six, so basically we stare at the presents and try to guess what they are. I LOVE it.
OMG Fiona!!! I love her!! :3 She is SO CUTE. Poor Lexi though, no one cared she was in labor xD I think Fiona's gonna have her mommy's nose..... I LOVE that nose <3 lol. Merry Christmas!! :D My grandma, my mom, and sometimes my dad and brother, and I, always makes these delicious cookies Christmas eve, and then Christmas day my cousins come over and we spend all day looking for their hiding spot and stealing them xD It was more fun when we were little and it was like a secret mission. Now it's more a question of who's the tallest and can reach the top of the fridge easiest xD
My Family always does gag gifts, I'm the one that always give people toilet things :P. But this year I gave my 14 year old cousin a justin bieber poster, he hates him! LOL xD

That's awesome. I miss making stuff for Christmas like that when I was little. We're all so busy this time of year now it makes it hard:).

For a tradition we always go out light seeing on christmas eve, and open some presents, they usually are an ornament, movie, pjs and mugs.
Thats sound like fun, we just guess what it is before we open it
