Is this christmas eve traditional stupid?

We do the same each year with our two girls...so no, I wouldn't say its stupid. Keeps them occupied while the adults have their time together.

We open the whole damn lot on Xmas eve.

The drill around my house is we have a Santa cap on top of the tree, and each year a different person puts the cap on and plays Santa, handing out the gifts, then we all watch the person receiving the gift open the package...

When it's over, the Santa cap goes back atop the tree.

That is a really cute tradition! Very original, can't say I've ever heard that one with the santa cap before

Naw, I wouldn't say weird. I've known lots of peeps over the years who do the same.

Our girls are 15 & 12...so not quite so 'little' anymore, but they still get in to the spirit of things.

We always did one gift on christmas eve too.

I thought that the "tradition" was that the family would go to mass or something. It's funny how as Xmas has become more and more commercialized the tradition has changed to opening the goodies..

**adultchica** · 12-24-2005, 03:44 AM

Funny you should say that Tempest, I still type it out as christmas with the "christ" in the title, yet you wrote xmas. And you speak of commercialism? :-)

Btw, I'm not trying to be rude. Today everyone should try and be at least a little pleasant to eachother

I'm lazy girly... I suspect if I was religious I'd type it out as Christmas (note the capitalization)... but as it is... well ya know.. ;)
