Christmas morning definitely has it’s specific traditions at the Larsen house. Gone are the days of getting up at the crack of dawn (thankfully) but we still revel in the hoopla of the morning. We start out with the stockings at the fireplace. After the stockings we have a big breakfast and then move into the living room where all the presents are sitting under the tree. We’ve never had any definite assignments for someone to hand out presents – usually whoever sits closest to the tree and is willing to get up and carry presents from the tree to the recipient. Everyone opens one at a time and waits for everyone else to finish before the next one starts. We usually have a contest for who can have the biggest pile in front of them without opening them. I guess that’s because we all secretly like having the spotlight on ourselves so we like being the last to have gifts to open so everyone is looking our way.
