Kristen describes how her family decorates for Christmas with three trees, garland, stockings, a model train set and village in their family room. They celebrate her birthday on Christmas day by opening one present each and then reading stories by the fire with hot cocoa and cookies after guests leave. On Christmas morning she opens her birthday present and then looks at and guesses what the other presents under the tree are before her parents wake up. When they come down they open presents while watching the Christmas parade then have cinnamon stuffed pancakes for breakfast before going to her grandma's house to open more presents, have dinner and birthday cake.
