    Talking Do you have your Christmas outfit ready?

    I started wondering this after I finally hung up what I plan on wearing.

    what are you going to be wearing? do you plan ahead or do you even need to dress up?

    I'll semi dress up for going to the inlaws, i'm wearing a baby blue sweater with black pants and black shoes..I love it, I feel so christmas'y when I wear it

    My kids dress up, and no, I don't have their outfits yet. Dave & I always go casual.

    I wear what ever is comfortable and warm since we spend most of Christmas on the road. The only times I've dressed up was when Christmas fell on Sunday's when I was little and we would go to Church that morning.

    Well, for the church service we will dress up a bit ... black velour skirt and nice blouse. Both girls have Lands' End velour dresses that we bought at Sears this spring (clearance priced!). For Christmas Day, though, casual clothes.

    We keep it pretty casual here.

    We used to dress up.

    When the Kids were young, we went to my parents for Christmas supper. We always dressed up then.

    Guess we kind of got away from doing it.
