I have enjoyed reading about everyones traditions. We have our big meal on Christmas Eve with Ham, twiced baked potatoes and other yummy side dishes. We always finish the meal with peppermint ice cream with hot fudge sauce. We also have homemade fudge and Mexican Wedding cookies. (We are not Mexican)
Then it is off to Christmas Eve service and on the way home we always drive through certain neighborhoods to look at the lights. I let my kids open 1 gift on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Day we always have a delicious breakfast casserole( made with left over Ham.) We open gifts and then usually play board games or go to the movies. When my kids were little I made a choice to never buy an XBox or Nintendo or whatever the latest thing is called. They will all be in college next fall and nothing beats the whole family sitting down with a board game IMO.
