[quote=Anonymous]My inlaws are excessive but they have a small family so there is nothing we can do about it without stepping on tradition and hurting feelings. I have a sister who LOVES to go way overboard, to the point that is uncomfortable for everyone else. It also makes some siblings uncomfortable that aunty is bringing more than Santa. (And we have a big family, 10 cousins and counting) After agreement by all but the excessive sister, the adults now exchange families and do a baked good. The kids draw names and do an ornament exchange. Surprisingly, the kids really look forward to and enjoy the ornament exchange (ages 2-13). To make up the the skimpiness under the tree we go big on bows and wrapping. New babies are exempt from the drawings for their first Christmas as everyone wants to buy something for them.[/quote]
