My wife and I usually have the same traditions on Christmas Eve. We usually order food since it is practical and allows us to select exactly what we like. On some occasions, we get presents from our families, but this time we did not, as we were planning to meet them after Christmas. As you can see, our families all reside in different places.
We had been watching Christmas movies when the delivery person arrived with our order at midday. We took a break to have lunch and a glass of warm wine on the balcony. We chatted and savoured the hot drink.
Following that, we went back inside, continuing our movie marathon until we both had a nap. When we awoke, we had a light snack then got up and danced to some classic jolly Christmas songs. I have to tell you, I am very bad at dancing. Anyway, I promised her I would dance with her again the following day. Then, we called my family to ask how they were spending their evening.
Then my wife’s family called her who had been savouring their meals together. After they had finished eating, they were in good spirits and started exchanging gifts. My sister-in-law’s son proved to be the life of the party and we all shared a lot of laughs.
We ended our talk by having dinner. Later, we stayed up a bit and watched something. It was a beautiful day overall.
