OOh lovely. We've had 2 skiing trips at Christmas time and we've had a great time. This year we're staying at home but not sure what we're doing. Not working the whole of the Christmas week so i can spend some quality time with Rose and Alfie. Off skiing in January this year instead.
love Sarah.

Not sure we always usually stay at home and laze about maybe have meal at parents or they have meal here.
This year I've been thinking about having our Xmas meal out somewhere for a change ..but it is so expensive!
I would love to go away Xmas new year as hate new year but oldies would go mad!

Have never been away at christmas and don't think l would, l feel its a time to be with imediate family (not in-laws etc they can visit before Christmas day) chilling eating and drinking with no pressure to do things at a certain time, have been away, not abroad, for new year several times usually a hotel on the coast.

We can't go away at Christmas as apart from Easter it is a busy time at work for dh. He is Music Director at a Church.
I must say though I can't imagine not having Christmas at home.

We do the best of both - having christmas day at home , then fly off to tenerife for a few days on boxing day.
I would actually love the big family christmas's I hear everyone has - but my family are far spread and since my parents died it just doesn't happen.

I'll be the one in the Grinch costume.

Oh I love Christmas.
We have in the past visited my Mum up north, but it just does not feel right. So the year before last we said we were not going anywhere! We would get up with our kids, open pressies, have a massive breakfast, play with the kids, have dinner, play with the kids, watch films. Then DH and I have a drink at night.
That year MIL was not happy and said we should go and visit her, DH started to wobble and say we "could" go, but I put my foot down and said I was not having my kids have all their presents and be told oh now you have to leave them to see Nanny, I said she had no little kids so she can come here! I won
So now that is what our Christmas is! All about the kiddly winks and I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!

For the first time EVER we are staying at home just the 3 of us, I can't wait!!
We usually see the inlaws and whilst it's always nice to see them it becomes quite stressful, so we thought we'd chill out at home this year
-
oooh a lodge and hottub... not jealous at all!
We are stopping home (we were going down South to family but my mum is going to my younger sisters, so my older sister is coming up here.
My boys don't know, she is going to come up and surprise them by being here when they come out of school.
Our break up late this year - 21st I think
-
We are doing the same as we do every other year.........stay at home and have everyone come to us!
Its a hectic week, but lovely to see everyone.
My Sister and her daughter arrive on Xmas eve and will stay until the day after boxing day. We will also have my Mum and her partner on boxing day too, My mum in law on the Thursday, and our eldest daughter and her 3 children on the friday.
