Good evening, Steemians!
I'm asking this question of you all: What are your plans for Christmas 2017? Tell me if you're planning on traveling, staying home, visiting family. Also, please let me know of any traditions you have during the holidays, I'm sincerely interested. All you need to do is answer these questions in more than 50 words and you will get a nice, fat 100% upvote. I do ask that you upvote my post so that it reaches a wide audience if you don't mind! Thanks and Merry Christmas to all!
As for me; my wife, our two friends, and I are planning on spending Christmas Eve with some Ecuadorian friends. All of my family is spread out in Illinois and California, so being in Florida it's hard to all get together for the holidays. We will likely do karaoke, eat good food, drink good drinks, and laugh together. Though I won't be with family, the group of friends I will be with is my home away from home.
I will be going to Vermont to hang out with some old fraternity brothers. Can't wait to get killed trying to ski. Lol. Then New York for the New Year! Should be fun with good food and beer. Hope you have a great Christmas @vegansilverstack.

My wife and I are staying in town (Seattle) and hanging out with family. I had sort of a weird childhood in which we didn’t celebrate Holidays, so I don’t really have any traditions per se. My wife and I are talking about seeing Star Wars in 4DX on Christmas eve. Other than that, I plan on taking some much-needed rest for the next couple days. I believe we’re hosting a New Year’s party at our house so we need to prepare for that and the inevitable toll that drinking will take on my body lol.
I’m very happy to have met this #steemsilvergold community this year! Merry Christmas to all!

@kp138 I know what you mean about the weird childhood stuff and I have to say that with everything consumerism around Christmas I try to stay out of it as much as possible. I really don't like the STRESS and the Feelings that people get around making sure they got so and so a Christmas Gift. When I was a Child I saw my Mom a single parent struggle to pay her bills and still buy me Christmas toys with borrowed money. When I became an adult I realized how much pressure that put on my Mom and her struggles with Alcoholism. I really love the people I have in my life now and I don't ever pin my Gift Giving down to a particular day on the calendar, (December 25). If you Love the people that you are friends with then give them a gift whenever you would like to. Please Don't get me Wrong I am not a Bah Hum Bug person it's just that the current system we live under (Central Banking) and Govt. has NEVER done anything Positive for the average working man. Enough of my Rant may you all have a Blessed Christmas and may we all become STEEMIAN Friends in 2018. I Love the People that have found STEEMIT and I hope when Families gather over the next week or so that you Share with them the True Value of what this platform can bring to their lives..........

My plans are to have lots of whiskey with my dad, he has quite a collection and to see my beloved and my sisters open their presents, ive proper treated them this year. Ive been a bit sily with sister number 2 and ive ended up wrapping her present as a pass the parcel, there is over 10 layers of presents with a google mini centre wrapped in unpenagable layer of sellotape, i giggled as i wrapped.

My plans for christmas: I gonna go and spend 24th day with my girlfriends parents&family. We have small cabin in the middle of the woods where we gonna start our day with good christmas meal and after that we go to the main place where the real party starts! 25th day we drive over 600Kilometers to visit my dad, we gonna spend some quality time with him. He is 72years old widow and every christmas with him is so golden time (i dont know how to say it as i mean it). This is 3rd christmas without my mother, and we gonna visit at her grave too, with some candles and flowers ofcourse. At 28th day we begin our 600KM journey back to home, and prepare ourselves for the best year of our life!

Hahaha! Reminds me of what my brother and I used to do running between the pool and hot tub and back and forth until we almost passed out!

I traveld about four hours to my in-laws with my wife and daughter. We'll be spending time together for five days. On Christmas even we will go to a Christmas Eve church service and read the Bible story of Jesus' birth either Christmas Eve night or Christmas morning. Tonight we're playing games together and watching Christmas movies, there are twelve of us at the house hanging out.

I will be spending the day with my son, his father and my brother. Today I bought a standing rib roast and we are going to deep fry it in our turkey fryer. I will have baked beans, 7 layer salad, deviled eggs, dinner rolls and key lime pie for desert. This Christmas will be a lean one for us, as I spent a few months in the hospital with my son. He was not expected to survive, so that is the best Christmas miracle for me and all I need. Even though lean times are here, I am having a fantastic Christmas. Thank you for listening :D I wish you and yours a fantastic Merry Christmas and a very profitable, Happy New Year!

We decided to spend Christmas 2017 at the beach. I'm blessed that our home is equidistant between the mountains and the beach. So, on yesterday, my husband, son, daughter and son-in-law traveled about 3 1/2 hours to the beach. We spent a quiet time settling in last night. This morning, we started the day with a time of family prayer and giving thanks for the gift of our Lord and Savior. It has been a wonderful time of rest and relaxation. We've also been eating (non-stop) some delicious homemade food, playing games and walking on the beach. This has been such a wonderful family time during this joyous holiday season. Merry Christmas!

My Christmas is going to be memorable. This is because I planned to stay at home, do some reading since I will be having presentation early January, also talk with my family over the phone, this is because I am not at thesame place with them right now. I hope I can help myself when tired with some youtube videos, chat and steemit. Summarily, I am staying home this Christmas, all alone. Thats memorable.
