One of the things we did as kids we alway dressed in our very best clothes Christmas morning, then gathered in around 11:00 after all the farm chores were done and opened gifts after reading the Christmas story. There is 15 children in our family, and although we never all lived at home at once, there were plenty of us there. We lived far away from all family, so it was usually just us. We had a big dinner after that, then played games and enjoyed our treasures. We always ate fruitcake, cracked nuts, had eggnog, mincemeat tarts, and clemetine oranges on Christmas Eve.
