My survival tip is to take time for yourself so you don't get too stressed out during the holiday season.

The thing I do to make it easier is I cook all the food I can ahead of time,always ask my boyfriend to help me do things he can do,and always have the kids do what they can do I make a list and have everyone sign up for what they r going to do and then of course they get rewarded for what they do.

I try to purchase small gift cards throughout the year to be used during the holiday season. They could be for gas groceries or anything else that might help you stretch the budget at the end of the year when you're trying to afford holiday gifts and entertaining.

At our Holiday get together's we have a special table for the kids to sit at and their own table of food and desserts to choose from that way everyone will be able to eat about the same time. Usually an adult volunteers to help the children get their food.

I get so easily overwhelmed with everyone. The kitchen, where I enjoy being every other day of the year becomes full of stress. I get through it Bc of my kids.

If you have more than one meal to eat during the holidays, try to eat smaller portions of the heavy stuff like turkey, noodles and bread. Instead choose small portions of sides and only one dessert. That way you don't offend any cooks and you don't go home looking like you're about to explode!

My holiday survival tip is to make all pies and baked goods the day before Thanksgiving. These items usually take a lot of preparation and time in the oven. It always feels good to get them over with so that I can concentrate on the bulk of the meal on Thanksgiving Day. Plus family and football is a must
