When we were kids we always had Christmas at home with just us.

Mum used to make a huge brekky (because we always got up super early) with egg, bacon, fruit platters, pancakes, croissants - The works.

Then we'd set the table up all prettily and dig in to a massive lunch.

We'd play with our presents, we always got board games for Christmas so the whole family would sit around playing them with Christmas music going. I always felt so ripped off as a kid because we weren't able to share Christmas with our extended family like all my friends did, but looking back on it now as an adult it was the BEST day of the year for our family. It was pretty much the only day we spent together alone, just the 5 of us with nowhere to go and nothing else to do but enjoy each other's company.
