yes we celebrate Christmas more than once actually. the children have their Christmas events with their schools. we also decorate our home the theme of course is the North Pole, each door in the house has its own door cover designating North Pole locations such as work shop, bakery, wrapping, post office / ordering and delivery. we have a tree with lights and a mixture or decorations. we also have plans for a trip to the North Pole, NY, on christmas eve we log on to the NORAD website and watch Santa make his rounds, and play some of the christmas games on the site. christmas week also entails the classic movies Rudolf, the red nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is coming to town, Frosty the Snowman, The Santa Clause 1,2, and 3.

yes... tell us!

we are interested

At our house we personally are not a fan of Christmas but we have kids and it is part of the culture we live in so.. we try to do things for them (but generally don't do a very good job).
One Christmas tradition we like is to get the kids to open one present on Christmas eve that is usually good, but one year it didn't work, apparently we the present we got our son was something he already had (ho hum bad memory anyone?? ) and he was sooooooo sad. he was only 5, and the Christmas eve present tradition was his favorite part of the whole thing, we felt like such a dumb mommy.

adding muppet's christmas carol to that list would be good
