Christmas Tag

One of my good friends sent this to me. I like this because it talks about Christmas.
So here we go!
  1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Mostly wrapping paper, it depends on the size, but I do use gift bags too.
  2. Real or Artificial tree? Fake tree all the way!! So much easier to deal with :)
  3. When do you put up the tree? We usually try the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It was a little later this year (But I still got it up before Dec 1st)
  4. When do you take the tree down? Usually after New Years
  5. Do you like egg nog? Oh, yes!! I even blogged about it :)
  6. Favorite gift received as a child? Probably a Barbie or a Cabbage Patch
  7. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes! My mom collects them, so I have started my own collection too. (it is quite small, but there is always time to get more)
  8. Hardest person to buy for? My Father-in-law
  9. Easiest person to buy for? My husband (he buys his own gifts, LOL)
  10. Mail of email Christmas cards? Mail (I like getting the real thing!)
  11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I remember when I was a kid that I got a Hula Hoop, and I was mad, because I didn't ask for it and I really didn't want it either.
  12. Favorite Christmas movie? It is a tie between White Christmas and Christmas Eve on Sesame Street
  13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Usually right after Xander's birthday, so in October (and I am done!!!!)
  14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas gift? No way
  15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Our family Christmas Eve cookies (peanut butter cookies with Hershey's Kisses on them!) and Fudge (it is my Grandma Jean's recipe, and I love it!)
  16. Clear or colored lights on the tree? Definitely clear!
  17. Favorite Christmas song? There are so many to pick from! Gosh! I love Bring a Torch Jenette Isabella and Away in a Manger because it reminds me of Chamber and A Cappella Choirs my senior year of high school. I love Nat King Cole's The Christmas Song because it reminds me of my dad. Definitely True Blue Miracle from Christmas Eve on Sesame Street (it makes me cry I love it so much) All of the Carpenters Christmas songs! Shall I go on.... I love Christmas music!!
  18. Travel or stay home at Christmas? We travel to see family, but the farthest we go is Provo!! So I wouldn't really consider it traveling.
  19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? Yes, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolph!! :)
  20. Angel or Star on the top of the tree? Angel
  21. Open presents Christmas Eve or Morning? One on Christmas Eve (pajamas) and the rest in the morning
  22. Most annoying thing about this time of year? Stupid people on the roads! Never shop on the weekends in December!!!!
  23. Favorite ornament theme or color? My little tree was purple and silver, but all of my ornaments are Hallmark, so it is kind of an "Anything goes"
  24. Favorite Christmas dinner? Sizzler on Christmas Eve!!! :)
  25. What do you want for Christmas this year? I have a hard time deciding what I want every year, but I am getting a few Disney Precious Moments figures :) I am way excited!

I'm not going to tag anyone, but if you want to do it, go for it!!

Merry Christmas!!

One of my favorite songs is also "Un Flambeau, Jeannette Isabelle. I think because we always sang it in French class. Do you remember that one Pat?
