We started making all of our favourite & special foods Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Nothing wrong with turkey dinner on Christmas Day, but it just wasn't working for us right now with little kids. This has been more fun. My family growing up used to have the Christmas Eve Elf bring us jammies. In recent years my little family have adjusted it; the elf brings each of us a book and a game for the family to play together. Roughly 5 days before Christmas is Grinchmas - time for who pudding!
