Lithuanians celebrate Christmas Eve (Kūčios) on December 24th, where families clean their homes, bathe, and have a sparse meal in preparation for Santa Claus (Kalėda) arriving after nightfall. Kalėda is depicted as bringing gifts in his carriage from far away lands. A symbol of the deer with nine horns represents defeating winter and the coming of spring. Christmas is celebrated for three days, where the first is most sacred and work is avoided in favor of predictions for the new year. Traditional Lithuanian Christmas trees are decorated with unique straw ornaments that originated from a Lithuanian Consul's wife in Chicago.
