A couple of blog posts ago I mentioned my Mom and her love of Christmas kitsch. If you'd like a sense of what Christmas at home was like, I invite you to watch this episode from The Carol Burnett Show where we get a glimpse of the holidays at the Eunice and Mama household.
The styles may have changed, but I would wager that this scene plays out much the same way in many living rooms Christmas morning. That was the genius of this show. (Alan Alda was kind enough to play "me".)
They're a little of everyone's family in there. If the words aren't actually spoken, they are very much thought.
