We have been married for 8 years now and over that time, have established some traditions for Christmas Eve with our family.
Candlelight service:
We attend a Christmas Eve Candlelight service every year. There is no better way to spend the evening before Christmas, and with wonderful people, celebrating the most important day: Jesus' birthday.
We even dress nicely and Lily gets to wear her Christmas dress.
Picture in front of the tree:
What better opportunity. We're already dressed nicely. (For Hubby that is probably nice jeans).
Drive around to see lights:
Following the candlelight service we always drive around to view local Christmas lights and take pictures.
Christmas Eve package:
Lu gets to open one gift. It is always jammies and a box with instructions about an evening activity. We then make hot cocoa and popcorn and sit down to watch a Christmas movie together as a family.
Presents come out Christmas Eve so that in the morning we are ready to open them.
What are you doing Christmas Eve?
