The vikings did not celebrate Christmas, as they were not Christian. However, they had a holiday that occured around the Winter Solstice, called Yule, or Jul, which Christians "borrowed" heavily from. The Christmas you celebrate is nearly identical to the Heathen Yule, complete with the decorated tree, wreathes, etc.
