What do you do the night before christmas?

[denver8]

Really interested to know, other attending church mass what do you guys do the night before christmas. I try to make it unique each year, last year my family and I went on rounds christmas carolling around the neighbourhood with others. It was a long time since I did that. Perhaps this year we're going on a holiday. Dunno where yet. Last year my family and I spend a comfy evening on the couch watching the christmas story on dvd....Tell me yours

In my family, we have a big Christmas dinner and then open the presents underneath the Christmas tree. We started doing this, because my parents were divorced and we spent Christmas Eve at my mom's house. Santa would then fill up the stockings and leave one or two presents under the tree.

just sitting and waiting to the 12 o'clock to attack and open all the presents... and must be honest... not only my presents

I love to do a christmas movie marathon, watching movies like Elf, Home Alone 1 & 2, and Polar Express I also love to get cozy in some nice PJs

Enjoy a small gathering of family and watch White Christmas first,then we just enjoy all the good food and watch other christmas movies.

The night before Christmas has changed in recent years because of different family circumstances (some good, some not so good), but it is mostly the same. Once everyone has arrived or got home from work we'll have a meal, nothing too heavy so as not to fill up before Christmas Day itself. The preparation of that meal will begin, and any last minute presents will be wrapped. Then during and after that it will be having a few drinks, listening to some Christmas music and watching a film or the holiday programmes on TV (I also get a kick out of checking the various Santa trackers online wish they'd been around when I was a kid!)

Go to church, watch a Christmas movie and then settle down to sleep right beside one of the fully lit Christmas Trees.

We go out and look at all the beautiful lights then come home and bake more cookies for all our neighbors for Christmas morning. We also watch movies in our holiday jammies. As long as we are all together it really does not matter what we do.

This year may be a bit different as it looks like we will have others here to celebrate with us. Church will be on the list if things I will do, but the rest will play out by ear. Actually looking forward to it.

I really enjoyed last year Christmas. I bought some special gifts for Christmas day for friends and family and I packed all the gifts with very special packing material which looks so charming and listening Christmas songs while doing that.

Christmas Eve services at church are a mainstay for me. I love handing out different flavored Candy Canes to all those who enter.
