Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Yes. Just one.
How do you decorate your Christmas tree? With all kinds of goofy old ornaments collected over the years.

Hot chocolate!! Santa wraps some of the gifts and others, he doesn’t. Just depends, though wrapping makes the unveiling of the gifts last longer.

I really want to try homemade pierogies someday. I love the variety found in my grocer’s freezer.

And your SIL’s idiocy and self-centeredness continues to amaze me.

(Merry Christmas!!)

Yeah, let’s hold back a couple of kids until 1:30 PM? I’m lucky I held mine back until 6 a.m. Glad to know you and yours are doing fine.

We got just enough stuff up this year to consider things decorated – a wreath, a tree, a few lights on the first story outside. No lights on the tree or even many ornaments, but Q-ster’s artwork did get to be heavily featured instead – um, yeah, we planned it that way!

I love your meme answers – humor and traditions!
