My family isn't Christian, but we have always exchanged Christmas presents and had a special Christmas dinner. (Duly note that December 25th as a holiday was adopted rather than invented by the Christians, with Jesus more than likely born on a different day).

I was born and raised in Wisconsin and, on Christmas night, my family would cross country ski in the back yard. The closest I'll get to that in Seattle is walking in the rain in the alley behind my condo. Considering the City of Seattle owns about one snow plow, I'm not hoping for the gift of eight inches of snow. I'll be happy with the Packers beating the Vikings.
