Christmas Season

[ak]

What do you guys usually do for Christmas? Anyone here not celebrate the holiday ? I think this is the best time of year for numerous reasons.

True, but we are still waiting for the snow here. And the children love it of course.

I love Christmas, its less than 3 weeks away now, so close. I spend the day with my friends and family. We eat lots of nice dishes, listen to Christmas carols, and just enjoy each others company Its nice to walk around at night too and check out everyones Christmas decorations, we've got some pretty cool ones near my house.

1) lots of family gatherings. Only 5 this year I think.
2) watch lots of football
3) eat lots of food
4) play some poker

In no particular order.

Merry early Xmas everyone.

Hush now. I'm enjoying the grass in December. We're in the snow belt region and usually get pounded by snow or wind from the bay. It can snow anytime after Dec 28. I have no problem with a warm / green xmas

We normally have loads of people at our house, but this year no one is coming, so we're going out for xmas dinner. We will be doing the visiting. so you should nice.

We goto the zoo every year. Its completely empty, so a great day to take the kids...

We fly to So Cal to spend xmas with the wifes family - only fair seeing as I've dragged her to London to live! Still can't get used to being able to sit outside at christmas - where's the snow?!

We actually end up having three christmas dinners - one in the US, one in the UK with my family (over the new years) and one for just me and the wife before we fly out. Gym membership for christmas please, santa!
