Ahhhhh... Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. It falls on December 26, which is also St. Stephen's Day. The public observance of Boxing Day takes place on the following Monday if December 26 falls on a Saturday or Sunday. The traditional celebration of Boxing Day included giving money and other gifts to charitable institutions, needy individuals, and people in service jobs. The holiday may date from the Middle Ages (A.D. 400's-1500's), but the exact origin is unknown. It may have begun with the lords and ladies of England, who presented Christmas gifts in boxes to their servants on December 26. Or it may have begun with priests, who opened the church's alms (charity) boxes on the day after Christmas and distributed the contents to the poor. luvhartz 12-24-2005, 04:39 PM yeah it now tends to be for all stores especially Sofa and Kitchen stores for their sales like PB&J said. I thought everyone celebrated boxing day, when reading allies post i was like "???whats boxing day??? !" haha for my family boxing day is an excuse to eat even more food :P Monkey Bizzle 12-24-2005, 06:13 PM ...riding the trolley around town...

I don't have any gloves on, but my fingers aren't very chilly. In about 30 minutes, my family and I will be going to a Christmas Eve service with our extended family at a Catholic church. After that, we'll head over to the house of one of my aunts. We open presents then from the family members then. Tomorrow is when we get the presents from "Santa" ;) Since tomorrow is also a Sunday, my family and I will be going to church in the morning as well. Well - I have to get dressed for the service! I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!
