Celebrities celebrate the holidays just like us regular folks do — well, most of the time.

Sometimes. On occasion.

Some stars, such as Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade, decided to go a big for their daughter's first Christmas and took a ride on a yacht in Miami; Will Smith and family went overboard on lights; and Safaree is spending the holidays in his first home.

Others, such as Hilary Duff, went for traditions lots of families have: She took her kids to see Santa Claus. Victoria Beckham and her daughter left out cookies for St. Nick.

Check out how some of your favorite stars are celebrating this holiday season.

Rapper Meek Mill gave back to his community by hosting a toy giveaway for kids in Philadelphia.

The Kardashians share Christmas photo

The Kardashians and Jenners posed for a cute family Christmas photo, but one family member seemed to be missing. Where's Kendall Jenner?

Shortly after the three Kardashian sisters posted the photo on their social media accounts, fans were asking why Kendall was absent.
