Every year, we fry a turkey. Then, the we have family dinner. Everybody makes something. We eat turkey, ham, potatoes, beans, pies, and lots of other foods. We draw names a few months before Christmas for a gift exchange-like thing. We give a present to whoever's name we drew, and get ours from whoever drew ours. My cousins and I play around with whatever we get. Last, my cousins and I stay the night at one of our houses. We hang out and talk and mess around. We watch Christmas movies until the wee hours of the morning. It is always a lot of fun. Then, when I get back to Colorado, we have my step-mom's family over for dinner. Her mom, her brother, sister-in-law, and nephew come. After we eat, we go to her mom's house and give gifts. The next morning, I get my gifts from my dad, step-mom, and step-sister, and I give them theirs.
