We have 3 on my side (both grandparents + parents) and 1 on DH's side. Luckily all within an hour's drive.
1 the 19th, 1 the 20th, 1 the 24th, and 1 the 26th.
How about you?

@MRSJX3: Yikes! That's a lot!
We're just going to one, although I'm not sure it's technically a party - it's my in-laws get-together. But there will be a lot of people there, so I'm counting it.

I voted 4. We just hosted my dad's side for Christmas, had our life group Christmas party, my husband's work Christmas party and we are hosting Christmas eve for both families.

1 is enough for me! It is just dinner at my Aunt's house with aunts, uncles, cousins.

We had about 5 to go to but it looks like we're only going to be able to make it to one on Christmas eve due to me being quite sick. On one hand, I'm bummed because I love this time of year and spending time with people and making gifts... but on the other, it really is making me slow down and just appreciate the little things.

Just heading to my parents house for actual Christmas. I already had my "girls" Christmas party, and one friends Christmas dinner. We will see 2 more sets of friends for Christmas on Saturday and then DH and I have 3 work parties between the 2 of us but I am not going to his and he isn't coming to mine because of LO.

None except a cookie decorating party we hosted last weekend. We're doing family meals on the 24th and 25th though.

We went to one party with friends but it was very informal. Then we went to DH's big company party.
We'll celebrate with friends and family when we are back home starting next week but no official parties planned.
ETA: Oh, my mom's group is having a party tonight so I guess I should count that. It's more Mom's Night Out the holiday edition

Work and our party were both last week.
Nothing else is on the calendar. I don't even know if we'll spend Christmas with the ILs.
