17 Christmas Eve Memes to Keep Laughing Until Santa Arrives

Christmas Eve memes (and Christmas Eve Eve memes) take your mind off the family gathering and all the gifts still left to wrap. They also remind you that laughter is the best medicine for the holiday blues. Sit back while you wait for Christmas to arrive and have a hearty holiday laugh. 

We buy the gifts and stay up all night wrapping while Dad eats the cookies and prepares for a morning of cleaning up paper. Something doesn't add up here. 

Yes, we will wear deer antlers. Yes, we will find an excuse to wear lights as an outfit. Yes, we will wish everyone a merry Christmas Eve Eve despite it not being a real thing.

We laugh to keep ourselves from crying — *sips eggnog while Uncle Don and Aunt Jen fight in the living room.*

It's pajamas. Every single year, it's pajamas. But we fake a surprise face anyway.

They may not like it, but it's what they're getting. Merry Christmas, fam! 

Tonight, I'm civil for Santa. Tomorrow, all bets are off.

Want to know what really broke the budget this year? The fruit for the fruitcake. 

December 23rd? Never heard of it.

Everyone showed up for the Christmas Eve party. But I prefer the company of my snacks. 

I can't sing like Mariah, but that won't stop me from trying to hit the high notes.

Thanks a lot, Santa. There better be noise-cancelling headphones under the tree for me. 

Some sleep would be nice, too. Think you can handle that, Santa?

A few sizes too small there, Mom. Ever heard of just giving me cash?

Maybe two weeks of behaving was enough to cover the year.

I was just making sure I got all the paper out. So, it's just the socks then? 

Hey Dad, maybe you should try just quietly observing this year. 

From the dreaded family gatherings to the not-so-perfect gifts, laughing at life makes the holidays a bit more bearable. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas Eve (or Eve Eve) and a very laughy New Year.
