A friend recently posted this on her page and I decided to play along. With Christmas fast approaching (and Thanksgiving just a few days away!), here are some random facts...
Tis the Season to be NICE!
1.Wrapping paper or gift bags? A nice mix of both
2.Real tree or Artificial? Always, always the real thing. What's not fun about going to find the perfect tree? Oh yeah-- and then there is the smell of pine, ahhhhhhh.....
3.When do you put up the tree? Normally, we like to buy the tree on our anniversary, 12/4.
4.When do you take the tree down? It used to be Jan 6th, but now once its dry it has to go and we leave our smaller artificial tree up til the 6th.
5.Do you like eggnog? No. Yuck.
6.Favorite gift received as a child? A family to adopt me? I was gift of the year in 1977, received 12/23/77. Hmmm.. besides that, maybe money. I always liked getting money (some things never change).
7.Hardest person to buy for? Hands down- Gregs mom. I think everyone can agree on that.
8.Easiest person to buy for? Belly
9.Do you have a nativity scene? Yes, but no room for it so its never displayed. One day we will have a bigger place with space for all of our Christmas decorations.
10.Mail or email Christmas cards? MAIL (who the heck sends Christmas emails?)
11.Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Herpes!! Just kidding.
12.Favorite Christmas Movie? Christmas Vacation and Elf.
13.When do you start shopping for Christmas? Until last year, we always started our shopping about 2 or 3 days before Christmas. Last year, we actually gave ourselves almost a whole month to get it done. Amazing!
14.Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Who hasn't. Honestly.
15.Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Christmas cookies, candies, and warm foods.
16.Lights on the tree? Always! The more, the merrier.
17.Favorite Christmas song? O' Holy Night and Carol of the Bells
18.Travel at Christmas or stay home? This has never been a choice as long as I can remember-- we always, always travel to someone's house (near or far).
19.Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? DASHER, DANCER, PRANCER, VIXEN, COMET, CUPID, DONNER, BLITZEN & RUDOLPH...
20.Angel on the tree top or a star? Angel
