Fun Christmas Tag

1. Wrapping Paper of Gift Bag? I prefer to wrap presents because I would rather open gift wrap. But I will use both. Sometimes you just can't beat a gift bag.

2. Real tree or artificial? Sigh. Artificial. I love the smell of a real one.

3. When do you put up the tree? Me? Put up the tree? I don't. But Nate got it done the week after Thanksgiving. I prefer to do it the day after, but we were just too busy this year.

4. When do you take the tree down? I have taken it down on Christmas before! Usually a day or two after Christmas.

5. Do you like eggnog? I did as a kid, but not anymore.

6. Favorite gift received as a child? I have two. One was my Teddy Ruxpin and then my Cabbage Patch Doll. I'm still not sure how my mom pulled those two off. Shopping is so much easier with ebay and the internet!

7. Hardest person to buy for? Megan. This kid has never been into toys, except for stuffed animals. She isn't really into clothes yet. I never know what to get her.

8. Easiest person to buy for? Sammy. She loves everything, plays with everything and uses everything.

9. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes. My favorite one is my gold one that my mom gave me. It was the first one she bought after she got married. It was my favorite thing to play with growing up. It survived the four of us, and then all the grandkids. Now Sammy loves playing with it.

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? MAIL!!! Hopefully I will get it done this year. If not, I'll take a picture of my kids and y'all can swing by my blog and take a look;)

11. Worst Christmas gift ever received? Not to speak ill of the dead, but one year my grandma puffy painted sweatshirts for all of her grandkids. Mine was yellow, the worst color I can wear and she tie dyed mine. I remember that my brother had planets going up the arms on his shirt. He was in high school.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Hands down, Christmas Vacation. I could watch it everyday of the year and still laugh.

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? I start ordering online before Thanksgiving. I don't like to wait too long for things to come in the mail and then worrying that it won't show up. I have waaaaaay cut back though, so I really don't have a lot to do.

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? I don't think so.
