How many other people out there have the same Pajamas for Christmas Eve tradition that we have at our house?
What are you having for Christmas Eve dinner? I am at a total loss for ideas on this one, because it will be the first time in about 4 years that we have been at our house for Christmas eve. Usually we are out visiting relatives.

we do Christmas PJs too, but I bought Sam's a month or so ago and I honestly am not sure they are going to fit him *sigh* I may have to cut the feet off to get them zipped haha...I doubt I will have time to get to the store for another pair.
as for food we spend Christmas Eve at my parents and just generally eat snacky type foods not a real meal.
We do pajamas too. I have the opposite problem though, I bought them like two months ago, assuming she would actually grow. Except she hasn't and they are huge.
Christmas eve is at my moms, she making a ham. We do prime rib Christmas day.

We do! I am on the "I hope they aren't TOO big " team. But we will deal with them! I don't think we are doing anything too big for dinner Christmas Eve, but we will do Ham Christmas day. We should post pics of the kids in their new jammies on this thread after they open.
We have the pjs but might just wait until the morning to open them. We'll see.
Christmas eve was a big deal with my family growing up, with tourtiere (meat pie, i guess) and treats when we got back from church but with dh and I we haven't quite found our rhythm yet. I'm working on it. Next year I'm having my family over for Christmas eve and doing it up, old school style.
We do PJ's, too. However, I have not bought any for Hayden yet. Luke has his ready to go. I need to get to Target or Old Navy and hope they have some left!
We are going to my parents for dinner Christmas Eve. Then we'll go back home, put out the cookies and milk and get the kids in their pj's and then in bed. Santa doesn't come until they are asleep!

No PJs here. We usually have a house full of people. Friends/Family that dont have close relative to spend the holidays with (this year will be only about 8 of us). But the food is going to be yummy!
CA Chick Parm
Bacon Wrapped Shrimp
Smoked Salmon & Caviar with Potato Cakes
Stuffed Mushrooms
Asparagus
Bruchsetta
Sausage Dip (forDH).
We don't have a special dinner on Christmas Eve. As for the PJs, we normally have a brand new set of PJs, as matching as we can for them, this year I don't have the money for what I did buy let alone more, so no PJs this year I don't think
