Our 3 sons and their families get MEAT, as my DIL MJ calls it. I order Kansas City steaks to be delivered to them a few weeks before Christmas. Get everyone a small individual gift - towels for DGD who just moved into her condo, scrubs for her sister graduation nursing school in a few weeks and "Mom Likes Me Best" tee shirts for my 3 sons.

My brother and sisters visit our parents grave site the first Sunday in Dec., we lay a graveblanket and say prayers for them and other family and friends who have passed. Afterwards we go to lunch. I give my brother and 2 sisters a fruit bread and have small gifts for the younger neices and nephews and now grandnieces and nephews - books for the little ones and a holiday glass or cup filled with candy or snacks for the older ones. My sister Patti calls me Mrs. Santa but I love to share with family and this special family day begins my Holiday Season off so nicely.
