I Got Christmas Survey Tagged

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I try to wrap everything....depends on the present and time I have left.

2. Real tree or Artificial? I would love a real tree, but right now its artificial.

3. When do you put up the tree? This year we got it up the weekend after Thanksgiving...but usually a week or two before Christmas. LOL

4. When do you take the tree down? Sometime just before or just after New Years.

5. Do you like eggnog? I haven't had it in a long time, but if memory serves..Yes!

6. Favorite gift received as a child? I was a big barbie freak and I loved Cabbage Patch dolls.

7. Hardest person to buy for? Probably Bryan's mom.

8. Easiest person to buy for? Savannah.

9. Do you have a nativity scene? No, but I want one. I saw a really cute one at Walmart. It's actually a Little Peoples toy, but it was so cute! LOL

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? I don't really do Christmas cards. I mail one to a few family members, but I am just too lazy. I know....that's bad. Maybe next year!

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? We did a white elephant exchange with family and Bryan and I got a lint brush. It did come in handy though..lol

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? This one is easy. 24 hours of "A Christmas Story!!!!" I love so many though, but this is my favorite!

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? I try to start right after Thanksgiving, but usually don't finish until the week before Christmas. Where does the time go???

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Not that I can recall.

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Pumpkin Pie...and of course Turkey...oh and cookies!

16. Lights on the tree? As many as I can get on it. I love a well lit tree!

17. Favorite Christmas song? Mary Did You Know and Silent Night.

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? We have traveled in the past, but now that we have Savvy we try to stay home on Christmas day. We do our traveling the days before or days after now.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? "You know Dasher, and Dancer, Prancer, and Vixen, Comet, and Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen, but do you recall the most famous Reindeer of all??? Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer."

20. Angel on the tree top or a star? We have an Angel Pooh Bear.

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? We open presents with my brother on Christmas eve, and ours and Santa's presents on Christmas morning.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? People thinking gifts are necessary and watering down the true meaning of Christmas. (I agree with this statement) It's also trying to juggle all the families. Making time for everyone and ourselves is extremely difficult.

23. Favorite ornament theme or color? We started a tradition when we got married that we would buy one new family ornament each year. Those are my favorite because each one has a special meaning behind it.

24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Turkey..Yum!

25. What do you want for Christmas this year? I really don't have a preference. I just want to have a happy day with my family. Any gifts I receive will be appreciated. I am well loved!

26. Who is most likely to respond to this? Who knows...I don't ask anyone to respond who doesn't want to. I don't usually fill these out either.

I totally agree with the juggling time for everyone thing. Sometimes I wish life revolved around me and everyone would get along enough to come to our house. Nope, not with Max and My retarded families...blah!
