Read the texts and match the persons to the descriptions of Christmas holidays plans. One person is extra.

A. I'll be working. My husband and I own a dental lab and a lot of people are getting their teeth fixed for the holidays. But I will not give up my Christmas Eve with my sister. We usually have snacks and watch a movie. I seldom watch movies but we've got a tradition and neither of us will give it up. We don't have kids and we got out of the present exchange years ago. We only bought a Christmas present for Dennis's mom.

B. We're keeping it simple this year, which is my favourite kind of Christmas. It's so easy to get stressed if we take on too much, so it's nice to relax and just enjoy some time with each other. No baking production since we're plump. One simple and inexpensive gift per person. I don't decorate much since our grandchildren are not coming and our cats bite electric cords. It's my Christmas music that puts me in the mood for the season.

C. My mama is visiting this year. She usually stays in Wales with my sister, my brother-in-law, and their kids but will travel up to spend this Christmas with me. It'll be the first Christmas dinner I'll do for my mum. She and my Granny used to make legendary dinners so I'm a bit nervous. I seldom cook as I'm so busy at the university: lectures, practical classes, talking to students. After dinner, we'll go to our friends' house to swap gifts and play some games.

D. My in-laws are the type of people who have to open presents on Christmas morning, so we're there. My parents just have present-opening time whenever they can get my brother and me there. This year it will be around the 21st - 22nd of December. Also, my mother's side of the family is Italian and my grandmother makes us all her homemade spaghetti. We all look forward to it every year! The whole family gets together, my aunts, uncles, cousins. It's great!
