You should make them all go wherever you want, if they don't like it they can stay at home

I agree with Stacey, Drew, it's your birthday make them go where you want to go

When the kids were young we always took them to the cinema and then for a meal and to visit the living nativity (in a farm near us), now they are older and we don't have to work around santa, I will do a few bits in the kitchen if we are at home, put some Christmas music on, watch a movie,sometime I go to midnight mass, depends, we are not always at home and spent one Christmas Eve in New York and have spent it in Ireland with my Mum or at a hotel, it varies we don't have a set routine now.

There’s a nice Italian restaurant nearby, I’m obsessed with it and it’s always my first choice, I’d go every year if I could but they’re a tough crowd to please.

Probably watch a few TV programmes and a film or two.

Chill and relax into the evening, then Christmas carols on the telly.

No booze. I don't drink.

[Kazanne]

Have a real good tidy of the house,beds changed Xmas quilts,lol, later hubby delivers and collects presents, then, cosy fire TV ,chocs and nuts, kids go to bed then we sort out their pressies,place the smaller ones in a sack by their doors,bigger toys /stuff by the tree downstairs,sometimes if the next door neighbour is free to watch kids we go to midnight mass,which I love.Sometimes we spend it in NY with my brother,but not this year,maybe next.

[Crimson Dynamo]

I shall spend the day listening to classic FM that is for sure

[Livia]

I will mostly have everything done by Christmas Eve so it will pretty much be a nice Christmas film on the telly and then Carols from Kings interlaced with a nice walk and a hot toddy in front of the fire.
