Hubby and I are opening ours at home on Christmas Eve morning. The next morning we'll open presents with my family and later that day with his family. And even though we'll be with his family, his parents are super weird about wanting to be alone to open gifts, so we'll most likely have to make a special trip to their house over the weekend to open gifts with them there.
We usually open one Christmas eve, and the rest Christmas morning; however, this year, we are going to my father's on Christmas day, so we will be opening everything and doing stockings Christmase eve.
My SO and I exchange holiday pajamas on Christmas Eve to wear to bed that night. We open the rest of the gifts early Christmas morning, and exchange with our families shortly afterwards.
We go to my husband's Dad's house on Christmas Eve, he feels really uncomfortable around his dad so it is more of a formality and that is the only time during the year that we see him. They usually give us money, but they spoil the kids rotten, so of course its one of their favorite places to go for Christmas.
For our family presents, we open them all on Christmas morning after Santa has delivered the presents for the girls. Then we go over to my Mom's and open presents there. There isn't a set time that we go to his Mom's, but we go sometime in the days surrounding Christmas. Last year she visited her son in Texas over Christmas and this year she is coming over to our house Christmas morning to watch the girls open their gifts.
Our tradition is to open one gift per person on Christmas Eve, then leave the rest til Christmas morning. :)
FI and I will open ours today (Christmas Eve). We'll open with my parents and my aunts family Christmas morning and then with his family on Sunday since his brother/SIL will be out of town at her families until then.
I want some Christmas traditions so FI and I both bought each other pj's, so we'll open those Christmas eve (TODAY!!) and actual presents Christmas day (TOMORROW!!!)
I <3 Christmas!
we used to open them on Christmas Eve but now we do them christmas morning with our individual families then get together to open all the rest together.
For my family, my parents always let us open 1 gift on christmas eve and the rest on christmas day.
For the DH's family, he always got to open immediate family gifts on christmas eve and on christmas got to open gifts from "santa" and gifts from visiting relatives.
Our family's tradition is to stay up until midnight from Christmas Eve to Christmas morning to open gifts together. DH and I usually exchange gifts when we get home from our family gathering; then we knock out.
my family opens ours christmas eve. We are going to my parents house tonight to do that. We will open our dogs and cats tomorrow! (the FI and I didnt get each other anything this year in order to save money and pay off the ring this month)
Christmas morning with my family and Christmas evening with his family. This year, his family invited my whole family over and we are so looking forward to everyone being together!
My fiance and I usually exchange on Christmas Eve. My brother and I exchange on Christmas Eve as well. Sometimes we open one with my mom on Christmas Eve. The rest are usually on Christmas morning/afternoon.
Generally if we've been super good, my sister and I would open one present on christmas eve (probably books or pjs) and then the rest on Christmas day. We don't open them right away though, we always gotta wash up, dress up and eat before we get to open any of our presents. This was super hard to do growing up cause all we wanted was to dig into all the gifts!
this year we opened gifts on dec 23 because i had to work xmas eve and xmas day. usually we open them midnight xmas eve going onto xmas day.
