We do not live very far from a wonderful resort hotel that goes overboard with its decorations (including a Christmas tree in every room), parades and shops. We do not have the income to actually stay at this resort, but they are kind enough to open it to people like us to walk around, shop, sit by the many fireplaces and drink hot cocoa. So we began the tradition of taking the 1 1/2 hour drive every year to the resort and on the way, each of us gets to open one Christmas present. I can still remember every gift I have opened on these trips and I know the memories will last my son a lifetime. I do have a Tudor question...although I am a bit embarrassed since I should know the answer...what happened to Katherine Parr when Henry died? <br /><br />I am in the US and I follow.

We exchange gifts and my father dresses up as Santa for the small kids. All the kids have to sing hear comes Santa as loud as they can before he will come in the house. They all get a turn to sit with him and get a present. Then we all go to the bigger towns to see all the Christmas lights. On Christmas day we open presents early in morning then go to my husbands parents and have dinner and exchange gifts. <br />I also follow you on twitter @Jcause14Jennifernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3102594967020232402.post-92164082097767665142011-12-21T14:13:39.576-05:002011-12-21T14:13:39.576-05:00We celebrate on Christmas Eve as Christmas is spen...We celebrate on Christmas Eve as Christmas is spent with friends.
