The memories I have had at Christmas time have been so remarkable. I don't think I have forgotten a single detail. Every year we have a routine that we follow, and it just wouldn't be the same if we didn't. This is what my family and I do for Christmas:
Christmas Eve, we spend the day together and that evening we go to the Christmas Eve service at church. Once we are home from church, we read the Christmas Story in the bible together. Then we share something nice about one another. We then begin opening presents from under the tree. Christmas day is too hectic to open them all!
Christmas Day, we get up (when we were little, we got up super early--now, we sleep in as late as possible!) and see what "Santa" brought us!
Afterwards, we hit both grandparents' houses; eat, open gifts, and spend time with one another. My family is simply amazing and we have a great time.
This year it might be a little different...but it's ok, it's still going to be Christmas as long as we are together.
Christmas is in the air. I can feel it. And I love it.
