    My family has always celebrated Christmas on Christmas eve. When we lived in NY, we used to have 30 or 40 or so family members that would get together on the Eve. Antipasto, garlic steamed artichokes, soup, then some seafood and spaghetti with crab sauce.

    When my immediate family moved to the south, we have mantained that tradition, but a little smaller. No more soup, the artichokes stopped when my grandmother passed away, but it is mostly still the same.

    This was the first year we did it at our house, so I spent much of yesterday shampooing rugs and doing other cleaning up. It was a nice night.

    Today, my wife and I exchange presents, she makes a big breakfast (something we really only do on Christmas day), then in the afternoon we will go to her family's for a Christmas dinner.

    The thing is your picture painted is GREAT the I will do it what I want when I want attitude... but you forgot one BIG important part of your picture..

    The mountains, the fireplace, the cabin, the tree cutting all sounds so good.......... sending the child to hunt for food (great life lesson) even the "world peace" part, but you forgot to add a BIG strong good looking lumber jack, to split that wood, light that fire and go searching for the child in the mountains! What in the world will I do with you??

    Love,
    Missy!!!
    Well, I purposely left out the "Lumberjack"....they are extinct now, due to the spotted owl.

    I LOVE smoked turkey and grilled ribeyes! Sounds perfect!

    I really, really miss those early Christmas mornings with being awoken by my little girl, peeling my eyelids back to see if I was awake yet.

    Sounds great the Ba sketti and all but I am not a seafood person. (go figure huh?? I live here on the coast where eating fish bait is common!!) But it sounds like a great celebration.

    A big breakfast?? Set another plate.. I am on the way!!!

    Merry Christmas!!

    We don't have family here. They're in Louisiana, Utah, and Washington state, so we opened gifts this morning, had a big breakfast and will go to the neighbors later (he's going to Korea for a year in Jan)and we went to Christmas Eve mass yesterday.

    I got some LSU gear and some BRONCO gear for Christmas. My boys scored on Transformer stuff and LSU stuff but my in-laws sent them Seahawks gear, ohwell they'll make good oil rags.j/k. My little girl got a kinds of Disney princess stuff. My wife got everything she wanted.

    Overall it was a good morning and will be a good day.

    Merry Christmas to you too! The breakfast was great! Turkey bacon, French toast (thick bread), hashbrowns, scrambled eggs. I'm stuffed and will not have to eat for the rest of the day. Time for a nap!

    LA is a hop skip and jump from me. Well at least some of LA.... I am very close to Slidell, LA about 20 minutes away. (EVERYTHING DOWN HERE IS AT LEAST 20 minutes away.. except the waffle houses which are on EVERY corner it seems!)

    Merry Christmas to you and yours!! ( It is hard being a Nebraska fan down here in LSU land I tell ya!!)
