I go to church in the morning with my grandparents (my parents don't go, they don't believe in that sort of thing) And then we go and we can open up one present each, then we have a big Christmas dinner that lasts like two hours, then we open our pressies and play games like pictionnary or rummicub or something, I love it, this year my little cousins are round so having kids will be fun, and I'm not living at home anymore but I am spending a few days there. I can't wait, it'll be so exciting!

Christmas for me is a time of year when I can get together with family in an atmosphere of sharing rather than just visitation. Although it's nice to see family all year round, everyone is that much more warm and fuzzy when everyone is sharing a common theme, like a birthday or anniversary, but Christmas is even nicer when everyone is the focus of attention as we're kind of recieving gifts in place of Jesus whose birthday it's a celebration of.

A time when all the family comes together....this year my family is kinda separated though so its a little sad
Its about Jesus mainly though and we too easily forget that it is a very important time for Christians - this year I am going to go to church a celebrate the true meaning of Christmas properly

The overall uplifted spirits of so many; the feeling of festivities in the air, it is like the atmosphere has changed. All the positive vibes really seems to make a difference, or maybe it is just me!

Christmas to me means a celebration of Jesus' birth. Every Christmas morning before we open presents, we gather around and read from the Bible about His birth, to help us remember what Christmas is really about.

Watching my son open his presents, and then having a really silly day together, watching movies and having a laugh. This will be our fourth Christmas on our own, just me and my son, and they have been the best Christmas times of my life so far.

The arrivals of romantic Christmas Carol, beautiful lightings and knowing people are sharing their joy of love on this day. Feeling the warm of mortal life... that everyone is gathering to have fun.

I love to watch my boys open the Christmas presents that "Santa" brought them. I know when I see them smile about what they got, there real smiles. The tree, the decorations, the cookies and milk, everything is for them. Merry Christmas.

Christmas is "Forgiving", not "For Giving" - I enjoy Christmas because the Christians don't understand the Correct and True Meaning of their Man Gods Message...

For me it's a time of reflection and love.
It's also a time for me to contemplate Christianity.
I feel that people who say Christmas is "too comercial" should switch their televisions off and stay way from the mall.
Christmas is what you make it to be.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah!
