My parents come over on Christmas Eve (my mom's house is SUPER messy...I mean, literally, Paths that is it..to every room! and no where to sit for all the mess!) and we have a dinner and exchange gifts.
Kids go to bed around 8 pm. We wait until around 10 or 11 pm and put all the presents out and fill the stockings. Then we go to bed.
We are up around 6 am and I put the ham in the oven. Put on coffee, kids are begging to open gifts, we make em wait for Papa..lol...he comes down around 6:30am and then the kids get to rip open their gifts...this lasts what seems like 5 minutes but normally takes about 30 minutes LOLOL
Spend an hour maybe two trying to get the new damn toys out of the packages they came in (which is almost impossible nowadays!! damn they wanna make sure they are IN there!)....One hammer and two bottles of tylenol later kids are playing with new toys and mom is putting up new clothes while dad is picking up trash and cardboard and papa is sipping coffee watching the kids play with their toys LOL
We eat around noon and then we usually sit down to watch any new movies the kids got for Christmas...they usually each get one new movie and one movie that is for the whole family at Christmas.
