When do you open presents in your family? On my side of the family we open our presents on Christmas Eve(tonight). So we spend Christmas Eve with my family. Then my daughters open their presents from "Santa" tomorrow morning. Then we go to my husbands' side of the family and open more presents because they open presents on Christmas Day.
I know I posted it twice in two different sections but that is to get more answers.

We do almost exactly the same thing - except, my husband's parents have both passed away, so we invite his brothers & uncle over to our house on Christmas Day. Everyone from his family is welcome at my family's on Christmas Eve, but we really are an overwhelming crowd, so I think the feel a little uncomfortable & outnumbered there. :D

Well when i was little we would go to my aunts or grandmas on my dads side on christmas eve. then we would open presents from santa christmas morning and have my moms family over for dinner.
Now that we are grown up, with families of our own we still go to my aunts christmas eve, do santa presents in the morning, my moms is in the afternoon and my husbands parents is at night on christmas day. Its a little choatic but i wouldnt have it any other way!

We spend Christmas eve with my husbands parents and the kids open their presents from them, then we go to two church services, one at 6:00 and one at 10:45. Then on Christmas day, they open their gifts from the three wisemen (who santa assisted) and their stocking stuffers from their parents. Then my whole family goes to my great aunts house for the rest of the day for lunch, dinner, presents, and lots of card games. It's a very fun time of the year.

On christmas, the longer you wait for something is the more u enjoy it when you finally get it :)
You should gather all your family on christmas day for one big dinner then you all open presents in the night after dessert:)
