I'm surprised how many of you are opening on Christmas Eve (I know that this is done, but I thought it was rather rare).  I've always opened presents on Christmas morning.  Does anyone know a reason for the difference in practices?
My parents are divorced, so I go to my fathers parents house two days before Christmas Eve and then on Christmas Eve afternoon the whole family gets together (all 30 of us on his side) and open up presents.  Then I drive the 5 hours back to my moms house and we open them on Christmas day (today).

From my Dads side, I got: Sabriel, Abhorsen, The Complete Works of Edgar Allen Poe (Yay Ron!), $110 VISA, $42, and $100  gift card to Best Buy.

@Sidoh: Weird.  I too am suppose to get Bose Headphones!!  I'll find out in an hour or two if that's what I got, but crazy.
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

Chocolate, "The Bible Collection" DVDs, a WWJD book (parents = weird), an Eddie Bauer Lantern + Laptop Bag (mom works there), more chocolate, money, Glade Scented Oil candles (five of them, plus holder), some pliers with built in flashlight (amazingly useful, already used them a few times), Walmart gift card that I sold to my mom for $20, etc.

All in all, some junk I don't really plan on using too much, and $110 deposited to savings, which was about half cash that I had laying around anyhow. My parents are anal about me depositing random cash, so I jumped at this opportunity to deposit it, since I always use debit anyhow.



The big gift is still on the way. Details when it comes, but I've got a nice drum kit on the way! :)
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

??

I might be incorrect Quik, but don't you get two sets of presents from both parents(since their divorced), Christian/Jewish? If not you, then its some other person...regardless, Hanukkah owns, since you get a present every day for like what a week?(Sorry for my ignorance on the length). At least, my Jewish friend does.

Well, I'm pretty sure Jewish people believe in God too...

I'm off to the mall today to return some stuff. My grandma got me this dress shirt which I don't like, a dress belt I don't like too much, and these cufflinks. The shirt was french cuff and I wouldn't feel comfortable wearing french cuff. I also got the wheel steering wheel so I need to return that sometime this week too.
