[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 325655, member: 439"] witz - you do what YOU want to do. You offered to let her join. Her choice. I do the same thing. Have since my oldest was born. I can remember being dragged all over town on Christmas day, and I hated it. I decided I would cook a meal, and anyone that wanted to come were welcome to join in, but other than going to mass, I wasn't leaving the house. Some years we've had 2 people. Other years we've had over 20. I also don't focus on my kids having to absolutely be here. They know the routine, but they also have other family members (especially the one that is married). As to the whole "tradition". Many traditions don't do anything on Christmas. A small stocking is received by kids on St. Nicholas Day (Dec 6th). Of a small gift is received on the Epiphany (Jan 6th). Christmas day is spent in quiet reflection. [/QUOTE]
