I hate the rush and feeling like I have so much to get done. I do the majority of the Christmas shopping in our house and I like to find the righ presents.

I also hate the feeling of being pulled everywhere. We get up and have a short Christmas here with our family, then we go to my parents 25 minutes away and my sister is there. She lives in Texas and I only get to see her and her family once or twice a year. We then head to my inlaws 45 minutes away. They all live here in town and we see them all the time but they refuse to give up Christmas ON Christmas day.

We tried alternating for a couple years, but that didn't work out at all. Both sides put lots of pressure on us to be everywhere on Christmas Day.
