Usually we would head off to church for the kids play, then we would head home and open all of our presents (friends thought we were weird, but Dad say's its a German thing)...we would stay up all night playing. As we got older we would go to church, then off to the pub for some festive drinks.
This is the first time in 3yrs we will be home with our family and DS1 really gets it...so we want to start our own tradition. It will be Church, then home for a kids christmas movie/nibbles/drinks.....then into Christmas pj's, leave out a cookie & beer for Santa - then off to bed. I'm super excited this year for soooo many reasons.
