Where will you spend Christmas Day?

At home with my family - 4 (36%)
At my parents' - 4 (36%)
At my in-laws' - 3 (27%)
With friends - 0

I'm not sure if you realized but you could have voted on more than one answer. I thought some people might be in multiple places through out the day on Christmas Day.

We will be going to Chad's parents house on Christmas Day this year. All of Chad's family will be together for a few days. Then we will be heading up to my parents' on Saturday morning till Monday. It seems like getting together for the holidays is getting more difficult to get everyone's schedules together.

I know some families (like my one brother-in-law's and my one sister-in-law's) have a rotation for when they are together. One year they are together on Christmas, the next year they are all together on New Years. This has never really worked for my immediate family. We have quite a few of us in the medical profession, so some people have to work the holidays. It is nice to be together on Christmas Day but for me it is more important that we can all be together sometime over the holidays. I know the boys are really looking forward to time with Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. And so am I!!
