    We bake fresh cookies for Santa and make sure we have plenty of carrots for his reindeer. Then, everyone gets to open one present (pre-chosen – they are Christmas pajamas so we will all look decent for pictures in the morning) and the youngest gets to open a special present including a new Christmas movie and snacks for during the movie.
