[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We make a point to not travel, not host, and for Christmas day to be just our family, often in PJs well past lunch. Christmas eve is with family who live close by, and generally each family member picks one thing they want us to do over the holiday and that's the extent of the schedule. Some of the things the kids and DH have picked are board game night, going to a mid day movie together, going skating, and I always pick decorating gingerbread together. The rest of the time is a lot of relaxing of the normal rules and decompressing. I make peace with the house getting trashed with the trade off of everyone getting a break, and take an extra day of PTO to get it all cleaned up when the holiday ends. [/quote] DP chiming in to say this sounds so great, PP! Special in the sense of family time together but low pressure.[/quote]
