From Boozy Eggnog to Decorating Cookies, Here Are 13 Sweet Holiday Traditions From Our Editors You'll Want to Steal

"While Christmas Eve can typically be a large affair for some families, my family usually spends the evening together just the four of us. We go to Christmas Eve mass and then order pizza, something my family has been doing since before I was born. We help my mom with the baking (always chocolate chip cookies, magic bars, and mint brownies). My brother and I also open our gifts from my mom and dad that night and then open the ones from 'Santa' in the morning. We usually get a new pair of pajamas on Christmas Eve so we can wear them to sleep that night." — Amanda McKelvey, social media strategist
