Anyone else already excited for Christmas and what's your Christmas tradition

[doggylover2]

So anyone else already bursting with excitement for Christmas. I can't wait to put up the decorations and see the house all glowing with the Christmas magic. Also Im excited for December when the countdown begins and I get to open my advent calendar (I'm such a big kid when it comes to Christmas).
So was wondering what's your Christmas Eve/Christmas Day traditions. Mine is:
Christmas Eve
Wake up early so I sleep on Christmas Eve
Have breakfast and sort out the house
Have lunch
Go up to my mums house with DD
DD goes with my dad and my sisters kids to see my dads side of the family while everyone at my sisters house wraps presents
DD gets back around 5-6ish
We leave my mums house and order Chinese takeout
Watch Christmas movies/Christmas specials until bedtime
Sleep

Christmas Day:
Wake up at 9:30/10 (DD likes the excitement to build up she says it's worth it in the end
All the family comes down still in pjs to our house to open presents
They leave and Cleanup starts
DD puts away presents and I get to my sales shopping
Go up to my mums
More presents
Starter
Sit around
Main dinner
Sit around some more
go home
Have a drink/ more movies/ Christmas specials
Go to bed late
It sounds basic but I love it. What's your traditions like

We wake up early too. My family love to play games and watch television together. We also put out crackers to open at Christmas dinner.
Another tradition we have is to order pizza on Boxing Day and talk. My two children are getting a Christmas gift this year. I’m hoping to see at least one Christmas film. Basically we have a Christmas party with music and the works.
I can’t wait either.

I do but I'm pacing myself
Eyes up ever growing "To Do" list .

My DS has a December birthday so no decorations (except the Advent Tree) before then. We decorate about 10 days beforehand .
Not bought my tree yet (going for a nice fakey pre-lit - I know "Nice Fakey Tree" is an oxymoron but I had a real one last year and thought nope )

Getting my DD Beauty Advent sorted (I'm buying hers myself not a shop one) so she'll get fewer presents (mainly gift cards)
DS likes money to save (his choice)

We do some trips to London, go to the Theatre , late night shopping a Bluewater /Lakeside

Soon be time to avoid the shops at the weekend unless your idea of fun is queuing. And the joys of Christmas shoppng . Always seems like a good idea but I run out of hands, can't find my purse in my huge handbag, get jostled by people , have to put up with the inevitable moaners, and ...trying to find a loo, then trying to find somewhere for coffee.
I'm doing my shopping in dribs and drabs , got some nice BodyShop bargains for DD and I'm on the lookout for the perfect cashmere for me .

I watch all the soaps (for shame) and try to predict what disasters will floor them.

And I haven't found The Thing whic is something random that I must have and I plan my kitchen table round it. Might be a plate , or crackers, or napkins . But it 'speaks' to me
