Just us (kids and husband). I always think about the very alone persons, especially the elderly. It makes me sad.
We will try to have a nice day !

You are not alone. You have your husband. You are very blessed to have him with you for Christmas. Spend time together. It is always just me and my husband for Christmas every year.

Cherie this year being different will make Christmas 2020 the most memorable or all. It will make next year even more meaningful and sweeter.

I know what you mean by “alone” when so many usually have lots of family and get togethers for the holidays. I’m with the kiddos, so it’s just us and I’m the lone adult 
we’re just having a quiet low key Christmas this year and listening to Christmas music and making food favorites the kids love. Wishing you & your Hubby a Merry Christmas

I’m with you, Annie. For the first time in my entire life, that I can remember, I will not be with my family on Christmas. That is out of 51 years. We relocated three months ago due to my husband’s job transfer. My parents moved way out to AZ a few months before that. The place we were living in for almost 20 years is where my grandmother and an aunt (and her family) still live. I am missing spending Christmas with my grandmother, too. We are now closer to my husband’s parents (about 45 minutes away) but due to COVID they don’t want to see anyone, and so here we are in a rodent-infested rental house with no family at Christmas. I rely on my Heavenly Father to get me through this because when I really let myself think about it, I want to cry. Change is so hard. It’s during these times we can learn to be stronger, I suppose. I’m not the best at that but I try to be. My son who is almost 12 and has high-functioning autism will for the first time in his life not be with my parents and extended family for Christmas. It feels strange but we will get through it. We will get our usual Happy Birthday Jesus cake and bake a chicken, and give thanks to the loving Lord for His coming to this earth to become acquainted with our sorrows and our grief, and to die in our place for our sin, and remember the real reason we have this time of year and the many blessings throughout the year that I don’t want to take for granted. I hope you are well and that you and your family will have the same joy and blessing at this time.

I will be here with everyone. I will be taking gifts up to my grandparents at some point today (standing outside) and then my son and my dad will come over in the morning to exchange gifts. I will cook dinner tonight for my sister and my hubby and daughter. Other than that, we have no big plans with family.

Amen! So true. We can have Christmas every day. 
It is in our hearts and our relationship with Christ. We no longer have the big gathering we did in the past. So many have gone on from this world. Other family changes have come about, and we just don’t have a lot anymore. But, this year, I am so happy and thankful for what we have. We will see 2 of our 3 children. Our daughter and her daughter will come on Christmas Day for dinner and then after that our youngest son will come to celebrate with us. Our other son will not be here due to his choosing. But that’s OK. I am happy for what I do have. I may be able to pop on some, we will see. At any rate, I wish each and every one on this forum a very Merry Christmas, and a most wonderful and prosperous New Year!

I’ve been a loner at the holidays for several years now. My Aunt used to host holidays at her house where all the family would gather for a holiday feast, a gift exchange, and just to spend time with one another. My uncle became sick with cancer and ended up passing away. She remarried and left the state. With no glue to hold us together, many of my family members moved away. My family used to live in Northern California and Northwestern Nevada. Now they are scattered across the US (California, Nevada, Louisiana, Utah, Kentucky, Indiana, Washingston, Oregon, Texas, Michigan, New Mexico, etc.) so I rarely see them anymore.
I did try to host holidays for my Mother, and two of my brothers a couple of times but there is serious discord between my immediate family and my husband which makes it hard for them to want to be around each other and potentially chaotic when the issue is forced. Now we just do a small dinner with my daughter who still lives at home. It’s simple but it works for us.
