I wake up, jump on everyone's bed to get them up, then we open presents one by one.  We always have an awesome family breakfast with bubblebread, coffee with bailey's, and breakfast sandwiches with egg and canadian bacon inbetween two english muffins :)  then lunch and dinner at my Aunt's!  What're YOUR family Christmas traditions?

not really an intentional tradition, but every year my sister somehow breaks/spills/destroys something near Christmas, or even on Christmas morning. 3 years ago she dropped her stocking near the fireplace and it almost caught on fire, 2 years ago, a week before christmas she spilled an entire jug of milk on the floor, last year she almost tipped the christmas tree, and this year she threw the wii remote in a bowl of cereal....so yeah.

Wake up super early, open presents, get to the mountain before lifts open, ride up with patrol and have breakfast at the patrol hut, where my parents would make breakfast for everyone. Then ski all day. First year in a while that I won't be celebrating Xmas in this manner.

Haha same here, I didn't understand how my brother and sister could sleep in past 8, as soon as I woke up I'd run all over the house.  Now that I'm 17, I can understand a little better.

Christmas eve dinner at my house with my dads family, my grandma stays over. My brother, sister, and I all sleep in the same room and then get up at 6:30, watch a christmas movie (just the three of us) then wake up our parents and grandma to go open presents. We have cinnamon buns every christmas morning, then watch old home videos. at like 2 we go to my mom's parent's house where all my cousins are and receive more gifts then have dinner. Quite a jolly day.

On Christmas Eve: eat spaghetti, have a birthday cake for jesus (we all view it as a joke now) and open all of our presents.

When we put up the christmas tree, the first thing to go on is a Pickle. And you try and hide the Pickle in the tree.

Then when you take the tree down, the last thing off is the Pickle.
