Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsAnyone else meet family for Christmas halfway between residences ?
My brother lives 4 hours from me and the rest of my family is deceased. So, for Christmas we meet halfway to "celebrate". Neither one of us is highly religious, but it's good just to see each other and talk.
Anyone else do this ?

My son had dessert since he was stuffed from eating with his mom's family. It was just great having the 3 of us together. It doesn't happen often.
