Pre-Christmas holiday movies are a must! Let each family member choose theirs, and get ready for a week together in front of the TV. Cocoa, s'mores, you name it. This will be fun!

In the weeks before Christmas, each evening, prepare a little extra and drop it in the freezer. Come Christmas, pull it out, and the essentials for your holiday meal are ready to go!
Thanksgiving and Christmas are so close together that it's easier to keep your bag packed and ready. When you get home from Thanksgiving, immediately repack for Christmas. Then, when the Uber to the airport arrives, you can grab it and go!
Holiday tasks always take double the time we expect. Build in buffer time. When you plan (or volunteer), give yourself an hour on each side. If you don't have the extra hours, accept that you don't have the time.
Save your wrapping paper to create holiday-themed thank you cards! Cut the images from the paper, use glue or spray adhesive to attach them to a card-sized square of paper, and add a used ribbon from an opened gift. Write your note on the back!
