Any other X-mas Babies out there?

I always get asked whats it like to have a birthday on Christmas eve? And I always say the same thing, I don't really have anything to compare it to.

Bonuses:
1. Never have to work on my birthday
2. Kids are always home from school on my birthday
3. Family are usually always around for the holiday

Cons:
1. As a kid being to told to go get any present from under the tree to to open as my gift
2. Usually having to run around all day doing last minute holiday activities

To any Santa's helpers out there, today would be a great day to send me a pic. Could use something to make me smile!:blushing:

    Question to the Christmas babies...how do you make the day special?

    What about your parties growing up?

    My birthday is on New Year's Eve, which always just seemed kind of efficient to me.

    Mine is December 19. When I ess really little, I didn't like it because nobody would come to a birthday party that close to Christmas. But as I got older I liked it, because I could combine my presents to get something bigger and more expensive.
  • Christmas birthdays do by their proximity to the biggest holiday of the year kinda get blushed off. But like I said earlier, everyone is around so that is always special.
  • Not even 1 picture sent to make be blush. See what I mean, completely brushed off!!!!!!

    My birthday is the day after Christmas. Yea! I always loved never having to go to school on my birthday. The presents were awful when I was younger- the combo gift- ugh! Now, the gifts are still combined, but much better quality- like jewelry, etc. Go Capricorns!!
