"My family is Italian American. Traditional foods are a huge part of the holiday. Every Christmas Eve, we put out meatballs and a glass of wine for Santa instead of cookies. It's not a big thing, but it's one of those things that makes the holiday feel special." - Anonymous
"My family has a list of Christmas movies we HAVE to watch through the season: Jingle All the Way, Preacher's Wife, The Santa Clause, and such. But we always watched White Christmas on Christmas Eve Eve and It's a Wonderful Life on Christmas Eve. I thought every family watched these movies on these days until I met my husband who had never even seen White Christmas! Then I got to watch it brand new through his eyes!" - Anonymous, 33, Georgia
"In my family, we celebrate Christmas morning with Bloody Marys, mimosas, shrimp cocktails, and cinnamon rolls. As I've become an adult, Santa gets Bailey's in a mug on Christmas Eve." - Anonymous, 31, Kentucky
"My family didn't do Santa Claus when we were kids. Presents appeared throughout the month under the tree and they all had gift tags stating who the gifts were for. I never missed Santa growing up, but was grateful my folks did it that way. I never had to be devastated that my parents lied to me when I would inevitably find out Santa wasn't real. It made more sense, especially if a friend received more expensive gifts than I did. I really appreciated them doing Christmas this way." - c49a679543
