My Family is Coming for Me and We are Headed for Pennsylvania to Be with Other Family and Then Upstate, New York, To be with my Sister and Husband for New Year's. Very Excited!!! How about your Plans? xxoo
Well, my extended birth family is checking Covid passports at the door for all holiday gatherings as they have since that became a thing so they can fuck off. It’s nice to know that drugs are thicker than blood. My wife’s family have mostly left the state as snowbirds, leaving her parents and her brother. They try, but her parents are falling apart as her father has had a stroke and her mother has Parkinson’s. My brother-in-law really does shine during the holidays as he helps make it a good time for the kids because I am always working multiple jobs just to get ahead in the rat race and never really doing so.

I like to plan Paris. Halloween is tomorrow. Then Thanksgiving. Then Christmas. Then New Years
Let Halloween finish first the last couple of weeks iwas so focused on hosting an epic Halloween party for the Saturday past that I haven't even thought about Christmas yet. Look at the skirt I made!! But will probably have the morning at my new home and dad will come pick me up to have Christmas dinner at his, dunno yet if I'll just stay round his for boxing day or go home.
Plus in a littler over two weeks I'm going to Disneyland and that'll be a big present to lo... I'm so excited 😸😄
Thanksgiving, all coming to my house. 15 people something like that.
Christmas, all coming to my house as well.
my older sister bought another house but no furniture yet. So they are all coming to my place. I don’t mind hosting. I just don’t like cooking.
presents are joust for all the kids. Haven’t start buying… maybe just give them money. Easier and they are old enough to have good use of it.

Visited one daughter and her family "down south" recently. They'll come "up north" for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Our family dinners are seldom on THE official holiday, but, no matter- still great!
My alumni association has a holiday party planned for November 19. I have bought tickets for my girlfriend and I for three concerts in December. I will have church activities before Christmas. I have booked a cabin in north Georgia for the week between Christmas and New Years.
I have not yet purchased an engagement ring.
International friends who have never seen Christmas and Christmas tree are flying in. They are from a tropical country and to arrive December 15... ought to be lots of fun cutting a Christmas tree up in the mountains/hills.
Oh I don't make a big deal, so I also don't plan much
It’s too early for that!
Sounds like fun!
Holiday celebration hasn't taken place in my family for numerous years now.
It just kind of trickled out.
Traditionally in our family, younger generations would take up the mantle every 20 years or so. That hasn't happened in quite some time.
Except for maybe a can of cranberry sauce on the table, holidays are just another day on the calendar now.
I hope you have a good time!I'm hosting "quadruple triples" that started last Saturday:
1. Three Halloween parties
2. Three Thanksgiving parties
3. Three Christmas parties
4. Three New Year's parties
Me and the wife are already done with planing. Almost all present are done. I like to plan ahead and make sure the family know about it so they know when they ''plan'' for something without ruining ours
No, I'm just gonna do Halloween on the day it actually occurs. No point in trying to hand candy out to the kids today if they aren't gonna be here `til tomorrow!
I started with a little planning so far. Nothing as big as your plans. Sounds like a good time!
Usually not much if anything, but this year we’re making plans to visit my grandmother on the other side of the states along with my older sister and her husband who live just one state away from her. A very exiting and very overdue reunion!
Still working on plans. My relatives are all over the country, and it's hard to get even some of them in one place.
Want to be out of the country for Christmas this year. Trying to arrange that.
Doing my vacation after all the holidays something came up so had to plan for after holidays sense I was going to go by now but just hang with my mom on Christmas an Turkey day
I have never really been a big fan of holidays. A lot of people.
Going to my mum's early Dec for a family thing and then probably not doing anything with anyone for the rest of the month.
I have no family and therefore no holidays. I am lucky to actually be able to have dinner on any of the holidays since I am so depressed and lonely.
A bit too early for that lol. Maybe I'll start thinking about it next week.
I’m going to Georgia and Florida Thanksgiving week to see my brother and then dad
If I'm not working then just being thankful I lasted through another year.
