This year my family did "Christmas Eve" on the 23rd.
It was at my aunts again and EVERYONE was there.
Christmas is, in itself, exciting and wonderful. But this year, I made everyone's christmas gifts, so there was that extra anticipation. It was awesome.
Plus, this year, Kaleb actually opened his own presents! He's such a big boy.
