My family has a lot of family traditions. Over the years we've refined the whole process down to a predictable process. Even with the addition of several new members, things still pretty much stayed the same. This year was extra fun with two new babies that had never met.
    One tradition that has lasted a few generations of the Bodeutsch clan is the order in which we open presents. After passing out each gift to the recipient, we each open one present at a time going from youngest to oldest. The process was quite drawn out this year since there was 13 of us, some with 15+ presents!
    As I've grown up and experienced a few other traditions I've realized that not everyone does it this way, in fact, I'm yet to find anyone who does do it this way.  So since I can never find that perfect place in the conversation to ask people what they do, I figured I'd ask here. So what do you do? Do you have a mad free-for-all? Do you have a methodical method? Do you shun presents and just shower each other with compliments? I'm dying to know...
