What is everyone doing for Christmas?

I'm spending Christmas with my in-laws the heading back home to see my family. Christmas can be super stressful. Personally I think Christmas should be more about family than gifts. How do you all feel about Christmas?

Gathering with the closest family members for lunch, actually we all look forward to enjoying our favorite food (because we certainly get together often). Lunch is followed by a relaxed evening with your dearest friends, where everyone is obliged to bring a good mood and a little sense of humor! The greatest gift that can be given to me that day is beautiful memories 🍀💫

@DaughteroftheMoon hell yeah I love that
I am working all holidays. On Christmas day, after work, I am headed to my son's gf's place. I have bought all the supper ingredients and she will be cooking a supper for me and my son too. We are all excited to spend the holiday evening together. It is enjoyable to gather round the table, exchanging stories about past Christmases and generally talking. She has a 5-year-old who is wild and she will be noisy, I guess. Not like Christmas family gatherings from years ago where my mom and dad and my family and some siblings and their families gathered together in the farmhouse. We bought thoughtful and often funny gifts after drawing one name a piece. And the noise was laughter mostly. Times sure change. My only hope was to be at home. Cook a nice supper and make a good dessert. The gatherings are small and meaningful especially in these busy times. My wish for Christmas is to share love and togetherness. That is the most important aspect of the holiday. And this year I am making the best of the situation with work. Most previous years, I have had Christmas off and switched to get it and worked New Year's as it means less to me. Happy holidays to you and to yours. And I will take a walk at work and count my blessings even more so than on any other day.

MERRY Christmas to you and yours!
It's just my husband and I for Christmas. I am baking Lasagna, bread and pecan pies with cool whip. We will pig out, take a nap...lol... and play Pinochle for awhile. It's going to be terrible cold so a walk is out.
Enjoy your family. 🎄🍭💞🙏

@ShadowWorker thank you very much. Enjoy your time with your husband

At home kids and their spouses all coming to us.

So fortunate to have all the family under our roof together for the day.

Packing-up and moving, as they're doing major interior renovations. (argh!)

Quiet day. Our daughter and her family (the fun bunch) are spending Christmas with her husband's family in Mich. Son's family will come over for our traditional unbelievable cinnamon rolls and to open gifts. Christmas dinner at his house with his wife's family serving their traditional meal. Then a nap. Maybe another cinnamon roll.

Merry Christmas to you!
