So because my snob Uncle from interstate would feel more comfortable making my Aunt host Xmas AGAIN (although my Aunt would even prefer to have it at our place) - I'm boycotting Xmas celebrations on my side of the family . I still plan to have my Dad and brother over in the evening with DH's mum.

I'll have my almost 3yr old DD and almost 18mth old DS - and I'll be home alone for Xmas. Yup, self imposed (DH will be working day shift on Xmas ).

Sooooo, how can I make Xmas special for the kids? I want it to be a stand out day - not just another day at home with mum lol.....

Help me think outside the square !
