Any Christmas Traditions you no longer partake in

[NFLDERS]

Not a lot has changed except the feeling of Christmas from when I was a kid is gone. It was excitement and wonder and aww and now it's just - I got work to do feeling lol!

Christmas eve is at my in-laws. Snacks and opening presents. I always have to bring the same food - gets old but that's what my MIL requests. Makes her happy.

When we get home on Christmas Eve, even though my kids are 16, 18, and 20 I still have to put out cookies for Santa lol!! Every year I have to put them out with milk, have them go to bed, take a bite and a drink and leave the rest. It kills me but my DD loves it.

Christmas morning - up when the teens roll outta bed. We've always had a rule you can't wake mom and dad up before 8am and now they sleep well past that and I wake them up. Open presents, breakfast and then my family comes over for dinner. We eat, play games and relax.

Looking forward to it

Maybe, you can shake it up a bit. For instance Santa may like something different for his snack run.

We still do stockings......DS (35), DD (32) and DDIL (36) and now DGD Love stockings and will never do away with them
We still do Christmas Eve pajamas
We still do opening one present on Christmas Eve
We still do stockings, then breakfast then gifts on Christmas Day

I guess the only thing we've changed is the meal.....not traditional anymore. Last year was Mexican. Not sure what this year will be.
