I love to hear or read rather any family traditions for the upcoming holidays. Do you have any?

My family tradition is to open up gifts at midnight on Christmas Eve then come back to my grannies for brunch on Christmas Day

We make the kids find the pickle in the tree and whoever finds it gets the 1st prize gift. Its usually a $25 gift card to somewhere such as Starbucks.

We read the night before christmas before going to bed. We then usually wake up, let the kids open their stockings first, then have a big breakfast, and then after breakfast open up presents. It takes a while to open presents and then they want to play or open up all their packages. And then its time to start cooking for lunch/dinner!

We have a family tradition of putting up the Christmas tree very last minute on Christmas Eve all together. We have breakfast together on Christmas after opening the presents.
