Re: Holiday plans????
The 24th, probably just chill at home. DH is working and I'm not. Hopefully he'll get out early. We'll probably hang at home and watch Christmas movies, make some good food (or order in), have some wine.
My cousin will be staying with us for the week (she does this every year) but she'll probably be hanging with friends that night.
Then on Christmas, we'll go over to my other cousin's house to spend the day/night with her family

Re: Holiday plans????
Christmas Eve is ALWAYS at my Aunt's house (Dad's sister) - it used to be my Grandma's house - I have spent every Christmas Eve of my life there and will until she no longer lives there. After there we go to my Uncle's house (Mom's brother) and see that family as well.
Christmas Day - my MIL's. DH is home this year - whether he tore his ACL or not - he was originally on vacation anyway.
Boxing Day - is at my house - immediate family from all sides plus a few close friends.

Re: Holiday plans????
On Christmas Eve, we go to my Mom's Cousin's house. It's SO much fun...there's about 40 or so people there I would say. I always have such a blast.
We usually go to Mass on Christmas Eve, but we might switch to Christmas Day this year. We aren't 100% sure yet.
Christmas Day...in the morning, we will go to my parents house. In the afternoon, my parents, brother, Uncle, Aunt, and possibly some of DH's family are coming over! It's our first Christmas that we will be hosting.

My family doesn't do anything for Christmas Eve but Christmas Eve is huge for DH's family.
24th we go to DH grandma's house and then the 25th we hang out with my family.

Re: Holiday plans????
The 24th, we'll be at my mom & dad's house. On the 25th, probably church in the morning, then heading to my aunt & uncle's house to see the extended family (I have cousins coming into town that I haven't seen in AGES!), and then that night, driving up to my in-laws to spend a few days with them.

Re: Holiday plans????
Christmas is with the family.
But I'm more concerned with what I'm wearing for New Year's Eve. I need something short, tight and sequined

 thanks!
There's a new little shop in White Plains called Coquette. I heard that the girl who owns it will custom make garments - I might end up going there next week to see if she can make me a gold sequined skirt

Re: Holiday plans????
Christmas Eve we spend with DH's family every year. This year my BIL and SIL are hosting at their house in Brooklyn.
Christmas Day we'll spend with my family. We'll spend the morning exchanging gifts with each other and then head upstqairs to my parents to do Christmas dinner with them and presents.
New Years Eve my best friend's parents (who are also my parents best friends) through a huge bash every year. They live down the block so we love that no one has to be the designated driver. We've all been spending New Year's together since me and my BFF were babies. We all go out on the stoop and bang pots and pans at midnight like we did when we were kids. I love New Years!

Re: Holiday plans????
The 24th Dh and I are going to my aunt's after he gets out of work. Christmas Day, we will go to his uncle's for a bit in the early afternoon and go to my parent's later in the afternoon. The worst part of being married is splitting the holidays.

Re: Holiday plans????
We spend both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with my family.
I loathe DH's family and refuse to go there.
DH has to work anyway on both days, so I'd rather be with my family.
