What time do you usually open Christmas presents?

Are you up super early on Christmas morning to open presents with the kids? Or is it more like, whenever you roll out of bed? Do you ever have to do more than one Christmas get together? Since my family lives out of town, we always drive to my parent's house on Christmas day and do our presents early evening.

Christmas eve. Then Santa comes Christmas morning. After that we go to family dinners.

We have three Christmases this year.

On Christmas Eve morning we are going to my exbf's house so my oldest can have "Christmas Brunch" with her dad, stepmom, half-sibs, and paternal (and step maternal, lol) grandparents. Because my ex and I are on great terms at this point, and his wife is actually a friend of mine, the rest of us have been invited as well. Lexie will open up gifts from her dad and fam while we are there.

On Christmas Eve night we are going to my Mom's for dinner and presents.

On Christmas morning, we will probably open gifts around 6am. That's pretty average for recent years.

We celebrate on Christmas eve and open gifts at midnight. We also save a few gifts for the kids to open on Christmas morning.

Whenever we are up. I'm sure it will be earlier when our kids are old enough

Christmas Eve at my moms. They don't stay up until mid night.

At our house, we wait until 12am to open gifts.

We did Christmas with SO's family last weekend. Then we will do Christmas with my mom's family Christmas eve. The boys will open presents from Santa at my mom's, and that will happen whenever we wake up. If my dad answers my text this year we will go spend some time with him too.

Every year is different for us, just whenever the boys are all up. We only ask we have time to make ourselves a cup of coffee then they can go at it:)
