Christmas!!!

Christmas is only on week away! can you believe it? my family just put up the christmas tree, and we got our house decorated. for christmas eve, my family has a party either with other people our just with ourselves. then we come home and stay up late watching a movie. then all the kids go to sleep, and we wake up kind of early. we always have to wait for my dad to get up, because he sleeps a long time and they like us to open presents as a family. I usually wait in my brothers' room so i'm not waiting by myself. Then my mom comes and gets us, and tells us that we're ready to start. We line up from youngest to oldest and walk out to the living room. My house isn't big, so its not a very long walk, it's just down the hall. Then we start with stockings, then we hand eachother the presents and wait for everyone to open them. Then the rest of the day, we watch the movies and play the games we've gotten. Then we have Christmas dinner, and we usually have ham and then the rest of the food is pretty much the same as Thanksgiving dinner. What do you guys do for Christmas?
Here's some pictures of our tree




Oh and by the way, last weekend we got our first good snow fall of the season! I wish i would've gotten more pictures, but I only got one and its not very good.
