Along the lines of new PJ's...each year before Christmas we all get new Christmas themed pj's. This includes my husband and children, my sister's family and my parents. On Christmas Eve we go to my sister's and we all wear our pj's. We spend the evening making a gingerbread house and playing games like BINGO using hershy kisses as the markers. Each family brings little trinkets for the prizes. Wearing our pj's makes it comfortable and easy to relax sitting on the floor or whatever!!

We also had the pajama traditions. I (Grandma) would buy matching pajamas for all my grandchildren and then take their pictures sitting together somewhere. We now have a wonderful succession of pictures as the children grew, each year with a different set of pajamas. They are now much older, so this year we took one of the pajama pictures and used it for the Christmas invitation to the family members, placing their drawn name for their gift exchange and what they were to bring for Christmas dinner on the back. Everyone loves the nostalgia, and they never forget who's name they have or what they are to bring.
