Order of the day

[ByLilacMember]

How does Christmas day go? What actually happens at your homes apart from the eating of lunch (which I do).

My family aren't very ceremonious/traditional and we have made a lot of our own traditions over the years but Christmas is just the lunch. We have been a bunch of adults for a long time, no kids until now.

There are young children involved now so I'd be keen on some ideas.
I'm also just really curious in general as Christmas is so magical for so many.

Thank you

Thank you all for taking the time, all of your plans sound so lovely and comforting. My DC are baby and toddler so it's been nice to see what I could adopt to make the day special. In my pre-kid days i'd go somewhere warm on holiday, it's still my instinct to be honest but if we do stay home al least i've got a plan!

Thank you for explaining the PJs and games!

I know I'm sounding like an alien here and and weirdly obsessed about PJs but do you wear the matching PJs even if you're hosting relatives/friends etc. While cooking? Do guests arrive wearing their PJs?

I'm going to do a cheeseboard of my dreams for the evening.
