I make 'em suffer they can open stockings first thing Christmas morning when I am busy getting my tea....only after I have had a half a cup are they allowed to open presents.
ewwww, thats mean! Do you take small sips too... (LOL)

We usually open up gifts to each other xmas eve,
and the ones from "santa" on xmas morning.

Well in my defense I have to say that I let them wake me anytime after 5:00am and most Christmas mornings that means 5:01am...lol

Everyone in the family gets to pick 1 gift on Christmas Eve - with help from mom and dad - don't want to ruin any surprised you know.

The next morning, the kids are allowed to tear into their gifts from Santa and their stockings, at that point I call grandma and tell her she can come over and then they must wait until I'm done cooking breakfast for the family. The kids usually just munch on christmas candy, and when grandma comes we start opening presents one at a time. It's usually quite a long drawn out ordeal - but I hate it when the kids open a present from someone and we don't even get to see their expression. I want to see the joy darnit!
We do it that way too. I love to see their faces from my 4 year old to my 23 year old.
