  1. Hello!!! Indeed Christmas is approaching fast. And the end of year also. Then which are my plans for Christmas. It’s single. On Friday 23 I leave for Paris, the capital France. The reason why I leave. Is my family. Indeed all my family lives in Paris. We always use holidays and parties to see them. If not to be more precise. On December 24th, we have certainly to prepare a good meal. We will buy oysters, salmon or maybe a turkey. And particularly for the desert, we will buy (the symbolism) yule log or candies and of of chocolates. If we wanted to be on a diet, it’s not the good moment. Then we shall get dressed well. Personally, I will put a beautiful dress. Finally after this good meal, we will go to sleep and we will look forward the next dayton be able to open Christmas gitfs.
    I wish you all to spend a good evening of Christmas and enjoy the holidays!

  2. Hi! It's true that time flies...Personally my plans for Christmas are the following ones: For The Christmas Eve the family will be quite gathered and we shall party till it's very late. The next day we shall finish the rests because we know all that when it's our grandmother who takes care of the meal of Christmas, there is for a week! :P And finally on December 26th I go away 5 days in London! I am so excited!! Happy Christmas and holidays everybody!

  3. HI EVERYONE!!
    First of all i’m agree with you Esther Christmas is coming so fast.
    Then which are my plans for Christmas : i have a tradition with my brother and some friends is that we use to disguise as Santa Claus and walk at night towards the promenade and wish a happy Christmas to some people who passes but unfortunately the weither is too cold that we get home, although even if is too cold we go home together and make hot chocolate and see a movie. But sadly this year we didn't do it because of all the problems that passed. =(
    However, this year I’m gonna celebrate it with my family even if we’re not use to celebrate it, i just celebrate Christmas for fun.
    Whatever , i wish you all a merry Christmas and hope you enjoy your holiday. =)
    Xx

  4. Hello !

    I am very excited because Christmas is approaching and I hope that the dinner will be perfect. I have already bought all the presents for my parents and my sister, I also prepare my dress for the dinner. As for me on saturday the 24th I will eat with all my family at home, the starter are oysters and lobster after a great turkey and to finish the Christmas yule with lots of chocolate, the dinner always lasts three hours !! Moreover I know that everybody open presents at midnight but as for me we open everything the morning ( 25th ). Afterward I will eat an other lunch with the second part of my family and to finish, the last dinner ( sunday night ) with closes friends who live in Paris ( like Loan haha ).

    As Esther says, Christmas is not far. Then which are my plans for Christmas. On Friday 23, I help my parents to buy the last needs and to pick up the orders. On Saturday 24, my brother and I, are invited for the luch at the godmother of my brother to see again our cousins, and in the evening we also eat at her home with our parents. And on Sunday 25, we eat at home with my family and the sister of my grand-mother for the lunch,and open presents.
    Obviously after this, our stomach will be well filled.

  7. Every year, my plans for Christmas are the same, it sounds like a tradition (I'm not complaining, on the contrary). On the evening of December 24, my parents, my brother and I are going to dine with my grandparents on my mother's side. My grandmother often makes a great meal (like most grandmothers for Christmas hey hey). Then, at the time of the dessert, my brother and I distribute the presents. I think this is one of my favorite moment with the Christmas meal. The next day, that is, on the 25th of December, my parents, my brother and I went to my aunt's. Virtually the entire family is present, my cousins, my paternal grandmother. After the meal, in the afternoon, comes the time for presents. On this day we are all gathered, and we can exchange, take news, etc. I find that Christmas is the best opportunity to meet with all his family.

  8. As every other year I spend Christmas with my family on my mother's side. This year it will be in Bordeaux because a big part of the family lives there. On January 24th we will prepare everything for the big night and then my cousins and my aunt will arrive. We will stay in my grandparents house and try to spend a quite and peaceful diner all together. The next day my aunt and my uncle will come from Japan and we will have diner with them. It's going to be funny to compare my Japanese uncle's traditions with our French ones. Anyway Christmas will be a mess like every year and I hope everything will be all right. Merry Christmas to everyone!

  9. Tomorrow evening we are celebrating Christmas Eve and I am really happy because I have just finished the gifts and decoration ... tomorrow afternoon while my parents will cook, I should make and decorate the table and I love doing that. I stay only with my parents the 24th, we eat a good and hearty meal, but not too much either because the next day we go to my grandmother's house who makes huge portions, and we watch TV till late in the evening . Like Clara, we open the gifts the next day to extend the party. Then after we go to my grandmother's house to eat and spend the day together. I am very happy this Christmas because my cousin, whom I haven't seen for 11 years because he moved to the United States, comes to celebrate Christmas with us...

The next day I will pass it with my mother it left for an other round :).
    Merry Christmas and have a great time with your family.

    1. Hi Lola,
      I hope you enjoyed it all, remember it's always useful to have a second look at what you have written and take time to find the different possible translations of "passer" in English.

  11. Christmas is now over and I spent a very good time with my family. Every year, I celebrate it with my parents, my sister, my grandparents, my cousins and their parents. We prepare a big meal, with a turkey and then we open the presents. To my mind, Christmas is a good opportunity to spend time with my family.

  12. Every year, I spend Christmas with my family, in the mountain. Indeed, for my relatives, Christmas is a party which has to celebrate in family, and not with friends, or still abroad. It's the oppurtunity to see the family you never see usually.

  13. Hi !
    I am lucky to have, more or less, two christmasses! Every year, on the 24th, I go with my parents and my brother to my great-grandmother house and we have a delicious dinner. She cooks everything herself even though she is 96! We open half of our present at midnight. On the 25th, we take our car and go to Savoie where my father's family lives. We have there another great meal and open the other half of our presents with my cousins, uncles, aunts and grandparents!
    Even if it is not funny to be on the road for 7hours on Christmas Day, I consider myself very lucky to be able to visit my whole family!

  14. Hello everyone !!! Merry Christmas !
    This year, I have spent christmas in my uncle's house, in Tourette Levens, there were, my uncle, my haunt, my three cousins, my parents, my two sisters and my bigger sister's fiancée. It was a great time, all reunited, we had a great meal and we talked a lot. Later, at midnight we opened our presents. I was happy to be with my sisters because we are really close but we are living in different cities so I don't see them really often. We had a lot of fun, my younger cousin, who is 5 year old, still believes in Santa so it was very fun to watch him searching Santa all over the house ! We finished the night by trying several Mannequin Challenge and by playing Time's Up ...

  15. Hello everyone !
    As every year, I have three christmases :
    The first one took place at my grandmother's house with my parents, grand mother, sister, brother, cousins, aunt and uncle on the evening of 24th We received one third of our gifts then we have delicious dinner completely home made by my grandmother.
    Futhermore, the second one occured on the morning of 25th, just with my really closed family.
    And the third one, took place at my grandparent's house with my father's family, we had the last part of our gifts, and obviously we had again a great dinner.

  17. Hi everyone !
    First of all , my parents won't be here for Christmas because they will go in bandol ( it's not far from here ) to enjoy spa . Moreover , I didn't want to go with them because I do not like Thalasso . Furthermore , they are not young people so I could not make friends and have fun with them . That's why I'm going to celebrate Christmas with two of my best friends in Nice . However , actually I'm sick so I hope I will be well again .
    To conclude , my sickness is a bad thing because Christmas Eve is tomorrow but if my sickness is over , it would be a great Christmas Day !

  18. Hello !
    I've been celebrating Christmas with my family, welcoming some close and distant cousins in Nice for the first time. That was quite nice, because there was a joyful atmosphere at home.
    For Christmas eve, we cooked a delicious and traditional dinner: preparing a huge guinea fowl and a stuffed turkey served with baked potatoes and minced parsley.
    Surprisingly enough, my sister decided to bake a healthy cake: she opted to make the famous chocolate yule log.
    To put all in a nutshell, it was a succesful meal.
    Then we all went to bed, and opened the gifts in the morning.
    I hope you all enjoyed a merry Christmas and shared amazing moments with your family.

  19. Christmas is already past but I am going to talk about my previous plan for this Christmas.
    First, my cousins came and I enjoyed to play with them. I began to see them before Christmas Eve. That night, I was with all my family. The meal was great and composed of several meals. For this big event, I cooked during three days and I made one cake a day, I made a log with pralin and white chocolate, an ice log with black and milk chocolate and an opera which is a cake with seven layers. After the meal, we opened half of the presents we received. The day after, I went to Toulon to see my father's family. We ate a lot of choclolates and amazing food again and we opened the other part of our presents. Then we came back to Nice.
    To conclude, Christmas is an amazing moment to pass with my family.

  20. Even though Christmas was almost one month ago, I am still going to tell you what I did during that period! Personaly I went to Corsica to spend time with my family! We were more than twenty people and a lot of children! The house as you can imagine was very, very noisy! But it was fun to see all my family and just spend time together! Everyday we went to have a nice walk along the coast or up in the mountains! For Christmas day we had to cook a lot of food and so we started two days in advance and still managed to be a bit late in our schedule (as always in my family). I made a Christmas cake with a caramel biscuit on the bottom and then layers of chocolate mousse and a spongy chocolate biscuit. The next morning we opened our presents and then at lunch time we ate the left overs of the night before! Then I came back to Nice on the 30th to spend Christmas with my father and have a party with my friends on the next day for new years eve!
