I've already gotten a head start. I broke out the rum and eggnog almost two weeks ago.
My fiance and I are going to my Dad's on Vancouver Island. It will be the first Christmas my fiance hasn't spent with his own family in his entire life, so I'm trying to make sure he has a lot of fun and doesn't get too down about it.
I'm excited for all of the Christmas/Holiday dinners ... Not to mention this is the first Christmas that my daughter will be able to experience!
'Tis the season to be together ... with all of the people that mean the most to you.
Eat, drink, open presents, sing, but most of all ... enjoy it!
Me and my family sit by the tree and share our presents - then we'll spend a while trying to find where to put the new stuff - then we'll watch a film or try out someones new DS, Wii or XBOX 360 game and then after that we have a big christmas dinner and have a laugh with the christmas CD playing in the background. After that, we chill - and maybe watch a bit of the box and us girls would get out any new makeup, nail kits or facial sets and give ourselves a pamper sesh :D
3 day weekend!!!
Yeah, the whole Christmas part is cool too.
This is all so new to me with my own family. My little sister Jessica called me several days ago and says, "Hey, uhm... mom and dad bought a christmas tree and their forcing us to decorate!" It was pretty funny because my mom and dad were singing together and my mom was teaching dad Christmas songs. They supposedly decorated everything so this will be interesting. We're going to visit with Anako's family first since they do things early. Another interesting event I am looking forward to since I was actually invited. Then after we visit there we will go to my Mother's house for the fun.
I have no idea what has gotten into my parents but... whatever it is I'm glad she's smiling these days. Usually she's not smiling so much. Just crying a lot. I'm happy. I'm really happy. :) Merry Christmas Everyone!
My Christmas Eve just finished and it was ****ing awesome :D I didn't have so much fun since a long time :P First a loooot of food (way more than those 12 traditional dishes ) ,then presents and calling our brothers from Poland .. Then I called my bf, talked to his mum a bit and a bit to him and then I was drinking with my mum,brother and sister, playing cards and saying jokes about my sister :D It was great :D Lot of laughter and everything . I did some pictures of the table with all those dishes, I'll post it later :D
EDIT: And here are the pics
This is part one of the Christmas table. Part one cause there was so much food that one table wasn't enough :)

And here You can see the free plate. It's one of our traditions ,which says that if someone knocks on Your door on that day You can't send him away, You have to invite him for the dinner,so normally there is always a free plate for someone. And for sure enough food hehe

My girlfriend and I decorated a fake plastic tree. Then we gave gifts to each other. I gave her pajamas and a netbook. She gave me a photo album, some candy, and a Serbian grammar book :D
For New Year's we are spending a few days at the capitol, going to some concerts. We are staying at a brand new 5 star hotel and she is going to take me to a paleontology exhibit! Then on the first we are going to a bar to celebrate with her friends. It's gonna be ****in' awesome!
