Clande- no celebrations of anything?! oh my goodness, did your family ever do any holidays and things? Do you plan to celebrate once you have a kid? christmas was such a huge part of my childhood and so magical, i can't imagine not doing it. But, if you've never done it, hard to miss it i suppose!
My parents were Catholic until right after I was born (my mom took a guilt-fueled hiatus due to BCPs after me, while debating a third child)... my dad was drinking and whoring by that point and my mom tried out every non-Catholic Christian option and ended up creating two atheist children. Got our first Boxer instead of a third kid
We still did "Christmas" but the magic wore off after my parents divorced and remarried. Holidays became obligatory, muffle-our-personalities-to-avoid-offending-the-step-siblings and by the time we were old enough to drive, we'd stay for the required meal and then venture out to hang out with our friends who also had jacked up families. Hubster was almost as bad, his mom (in her passive-aggressive way) would convince him it was his job to handle all the decorating for the holidays to make her happy, even though his dad was MIA and she was miserable on the inside her entire life. Any sort of holiday stuff makes him irritable.
We've had people ask (or worse, insist) that we'll do Christmas after we have kids and that's not going to happen. My mom is moving to Texas next year near us and we will be going to her house for Christmas dinner, because she still celebrates and we are her only family, so our kids will have Christmas at her house (and I'm sure she'll buy them tons of stuff). I haven't ruled out Saint Nicholas Day (grew up in Germany, much better memories of that holiday), or Winter Solstice (really all the seasonal holidays). I hate the idea of celebrating a holiday that we don't believe it and I really hate the commercialization/ outright greed that we see on an annual basis.
On the flip side... we do an awesome Halloween, Thanksgiving, St. Pat's Day (aka "Irish heritage day" in this house), Independence Day and other holidays - just not into anything Christmas.
I should add a note that as my kids get older and decide what, if anything, they believe (e.g. decide to practice Christianity) we will support that to the fullest extent of our abilities - including Christmas and Easter. Just as we will continue to support my mom's beliefs, as long as we're lucky enough to have her in our lives.
I never really do much gifting during the holidays...one of the benefits of being so far away from everyone
13 Saturdays, when you put it like that it's RIGHT around the corner
I'm excited though because December is when we will mail out the save the dates for my wedding
I'm super excited to see your save the dates, I do hope we'll get previews on BnB!
Come on, I know we have at least two more BFPs hiding in here somewhere!! 
I don't knoooow, Cland. I have to get permission from my Graphic Designer.
