Default Re: What Christmas traditions do you keep alive?
Our current tradition has been a huge buffet on Christmas day including friends and family. In the past we have had Christmas Eve parties for family + extended family to decorate the tree and exchange one gift at midnight then on Christmas day we have what we call the "Orphans Dinner" which includes family, friends and anyone who doesn't have somewhere to go. There is at least one gift under the tree for each and everyone.

I look forward to hosting all of you when we re institute the tree decorating Christmas Eve party and the "Orphans Dinner" when we move to TV.
