We are the same here, BUT Dh and I have decided that we will have a gift-less Christmas this year with the kids. Not for any religious reason, but for an ethical one where we just don't need more 'stuff' because the more stuff you buy, the more stuff is created which = bad for the environment so we might do a short trip away and do something exciting as a 'gift' ITMS? So because of that we are focusing more on birthdays and making that the bigger event.
For me it is all about the food, the family, the tree, the excitement - I even love Christmas carols (ironically my favourite is "O Come All Ye Faithful" - I simply love the tune). Being an atheist doesn't mean Christmas is off the books in this house
