i think for years we(hubby and I) forgot what christmas was about. we did decorate inside and outside,was overboard with gifts.But for the past 3-4 years we cut way back, our health is not what it used to be. we will have all our kids and grandkids on Sunday before Christmas. then our holiday is free to do what we want with other family and our church family.
i should say he has and i have kids from previous marriages, so that why we do it earlier. merry christmas everyone and happy new year
