| No explanation necessary - just a time, time frame, or listing or various times is needed. Just, in general, an approx time or time frame. Thanks! |

2pm Xmas dinner.
We meet at one siblings home an hour away and that gives enough time for each family to have Xmas breakfast and gifts at home. Aldo early enough for 2nd round of presents, dessert, and leftovers. |

| 5 or 6PM, depending on what it is, and what brunch was. |

Lunch or late lunch, anywhere from 12 to 3pm. Holiday dessert is in the evening, with a very light meal. This allows us to separate, appreciate and digest all the fancy food before bedtime.
I am not setting a specific time and making my prep even more stressful, though. Luckily, everyone is fine with this. |

Same. I’d prefer around 7-7:30, but there are little kids who need to start eating sooner than me. |

Thanksgiving is much more consistent. 4pm is the goal, with some small shifts year to year depending on cooking times.
Christmas much more variable, because typically more variables in location, configuration of people, etc. So.... whatever makes the most sense from year to year. |

Same. And nothing at dinner time except self-serve leftovers if hungry. |
