AT NIGHT OR IN THE MORNING? When it comes to opening your Christmas gifts do you do it on Christmas eve or Christmas day? My family has always opened them up on Christmas. | |

In the morning. The wait is half the fun. And it is cool to have everybody around at once and watch their expressions as they open their gifts. I GOT YA, I GOT YA, I GOT YA PUNKASS! REPEAT | |

My family opens one gift each on Xmas Eve then we go to Mass and then home to bed. We always get up early in the a.m. Man, then the place gets covered in ripped up discarded wrapping...

In the morning, we all come downstairs together as a family, sit around and give each other our presents.
Christmas Eve is usually too hectic although I know my Polish family open their presents on Christmas Eve. It is my Grandparents wedding anniversary so the WHOLE of our family go to my Grandparents where we chat drink have nibbles and give them our presents.  | |

in my house, we had this silly tradition that we opened all the presents at midnight on Xmas Eve. most times after midnight mass.
then we eat all the cassava pie we can get our hands on. | |

Xmas lunchtime! before a looong afternoon dinner. Morning was always reserved for Santa pressies. Now I have a bit of Italian influence and they open after midnight on the 24th. This year probably after midnight on the 24th cus wifey is working on Xmas day  Happy is he who finds out the causes for things.Virgil (70-19 BC). Virgil was such a lying bastard! | |

VERY EARLY Christmas morning.. Since I was a kid, we always get up at like 7am and open our gifts. The day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom - Anais Nin

Christmas morning with my immediate family, and Christmas Eve night with my grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. | |

The church my family went to always had a "midnight mass" on christmas eve which was beautiful. There's at least 15-20 lit xmas trees scattered throughout the church and everyone is holding candles. The mass is done in the dark. They bring in a horn section to accompany the choir.
We get home at like 1:30 and hit the sack, then open our gifts on Xmas morning. | |
