How will you do Christmas this year?

Tried Joël Robuchon [ https://mgmgrand.mgmresorts.com/en/restaurants/joel-robuchon-french-restaurant.html ] last year to celebrate two birthdays wife's & one son on vacation with his wife. The other two sons made it with their wives but can't this year due to Covid-19. Benjamins were appreciated by all as Christmas presents. As a group we all thought the same. We like more food less "experience".

This year will get reservations for a restaurant that is known for great surf & turf. Looking forward to 8oz. filet & 12 oz. lobster tail. The meal expense this year will not be as high so the money spent will be divided equally & sent as a present along with the Benjamins that are always appreciated.
 

This year it will only be me and my Husband . We did arrange to do a video chat with my daughter and her family and my Son's family. On Christmas Eve we usually are all together having the traditional seven fish dinner, but sadly not this year.
 
To all here who have plans on staying home and being my yourselves, how I wish I could see all of you at our door, where I could reach out to grab your coats and jackets and hats and things, hang them up for you, give you a big warm holiday hug, and have you gather around the dinner table with us. 🤗
 
Last Christmas was special for our family. Our son's wife was dying (she passed on Jan 16th at age 55) and she wanted everyone to be together at their home for the Holiday. Our (my wife and I) whole family was there with the exception of a grand DIL from the West coast although our grandson flew in. There were 39 of us which included kids, grandkids (all with their mates) and the great grands. It was heart warming for our DIL and for my wife and I as well.

This year we'll spend a quiet day with out youngest daughter's family. Should be 8 of us and maybe our grand-daughter's fiance. Going to be a quiet time for many of us.
