my siblings and i wake up christmas morning, and we wait at the top of the stairs until our parents tell us we can go downstairs. then we always race downstairs and someone plays santa, giving out presents one at a time, youngest to oldest. we check our stockings first though. in the afternoon, we go to celebrate christmas with one side of the family, than with the other later in the week

my dad cooks a big breakfast for us after we all sit by the tree and open our presents :)) usually we’d go over to see my cousins and grandparents but not this year bc of covid, so instead my brother and i are messing around with the stuff we got (i got art supplies and manga and other stuff and he got some new video games)

since i am in New Zealand, we have a warm christmas, and most families dont have the usual dinner, but instead have a lunch, and do activities like swimming!!! my family does that too. we have a tradition of dressin up as santa as we hand out the presents to the little kids, and sadly i was santa this year

The night before we eat tamales for dinner and go to the night mass. Then we have Mexican bread and Mexican hot chocolate. Christmas morning we have jumbo cinnamon rolls sat overnight in a cream sauce(?) before baking. We also (try to) wear matching pajamas. After breakfast we gather to open presents.

like cheese cat i’m in new zealand, what we usually do is at about halfway through christmas day, my family, my nana and pa and some of my cousins meet up at a house, then we kinda hang out, go in the pool if the house we’re at has one then we have sausages and meat and stuff for dinner and we have pavlova for dessert

Every Christmas Eve go to my aunt and uncle’s house to open some family gifts. Then we go home we watch Christmas vacation in my parents room and pass out on the floor, then wake up at like 5 am on Christmas Day to open presents. Then have Christmas dinner later on that day

We dont celebrate Christmas but wanted to go to Toronto together over the break. Covid is bad and dumb again, though, so instead we're having a cooking competition at home which is fun

We might make it a tradition shrugs

The first time I celebrated Christmas since 2009 was last year
But the holiday is bittersweet for me. I love buying gifts for others but usually they get them after the first of the year because well
They have other things to do on the day.
I guess like
I sorta celebrate?
Kinda
Christmas is a hard holiday for me so I enjoy from a distance
Same with New Years festivities

#

I mostly just work or sleep on the day of

#

When I get things worked out I plan on doing Christmas themed cosplays next year
As a way of getting festive. Last year I did Constantine in a Santa hat

I go to church with my family and then add baby Jesus to the Christmas crib Happy
Then we have a big lunch (around 2 hours long) with a traditional menu (foie gras, main course, chocolate « bĆ»cheĀ Ā», and champagne and wines of course) and after that it’s coffee time to try to avoid food coma
In the afternoon we exchange many gifts, we talk about it and we thank everyone, and if there is still time we start playing with the toys and trying the other stuff while we’re still together. It’s a very good time and this year two of my siblings couldn’t make it because of work etc so we also facetimed them !

#

This day is very important to me and to my whole family. We also all dress in a nice way, we use the plates and cutlery etc that only goes out once or twice a year and we clean and tidy the house as much as we can before !

i dont celebrate xmas but i like to give gifts around now because several friends of mine celebrate yule

#

technically in my religion theres an observance i could celebrate around now but we tend to do most of that stuff earlier in the year, the next most significant thing for me to celebrate is in march

#

this season is v quiet on my calendar as for celebrations

I tried taking a picture of the Christmas lights for ya, every year 3 streets in the city compete for best lights and people can drive through. It's pretty but the picture sucks lol

We sit in the living room and eat weird stuff but I don't eat that stuff so I only eat a bit of bread being bored. Then at some point we give each other presents. Yeah, that's all but I don't like amything of it

#

I can't really figure out any consistencies between my holidays tbh we used to visit various relatives' houses and have dinner but it's all a mess now

#

kind of interesting that way maybe but traditions are probably cool to have

For my family, on Christmas Day our dad tries to get everyone awake at 8. Instead, he’s awake by six, I’m up by 7:30, and my sister isn’t conscious until 9 or 10. We usually go to church on Christmas Eve because we are Catholic, so we break out the cinnamon rolls and bacon and eat them as we open presents

# topaz linden I go to church with my family and then add baby Jesus to the Christmas crib <:Ha...

hey hey french christmas over heeere. me tooo. for me, depends on which family side i celebrate christmas (father or mother side). this year we opened the presents after the midnight mass (which doesn't really happen at midnight nowadays but sooner). but the tradition is to open presents after the birth of jesus which happens at the midnight mass basicaly. from my father family, after the biiiig dinner with plenty of luxuous french food, we finish the night gathering and listening a funny Christmas tale eating sweeties (which were rare in the past). The tale is funny because it describes the birth of jesius from the provencal point of view with the very strong accent from the south of france. it's like a parodia of the nativity. and yey we dress classy šŸ™ƒ merry christmas everyone even if sometimes gathering in family is not always pleasant kisseees

I celebrate christmas like any other day, I open up discord and regret my life decisions, then I eat some turkey with my crumbling apart family. Then I write some cards to gift to them on the next day. Then I go to sleep and hope for santa to come but nobody comes, like always, nobody comes.
