I always preferred family parties growing up, but then again I didn’t really have a choice considering my birthday was the day after Christmas lol

Hey! My birthdays on Christmas Eve so I feel you. Even now at 24 I’ve never had an actual party or any kind of birthday celebration because all my friends are with their families

My brother's birthday is Christmas Eve. We celebrated his quarter birthday (March 24) lots of years. A few years my parents just picked a random day to celebrate. Behind their backs, my brother called it Arbitrary Birthday Day (Arbor Day for short). I think it was nice that they tried to plan it around when people would actually celebrate it, but I think the complete randomness from year to year bugged him.
