Christmas Survey

1- Egg nog or hot chocolate?

Eggnog! Unfortunately I haven't been able to have any this year, but I did make some eggnog bars and they were to die for, almost as good as the drink!

2- Does Santa wrap the presents, or just sit them under the tree?

He does a little bit of both. The big presents he sets out, but the littler ones he wraps and puts under the tree.

3- Colored lights on tree/house or white?

White! Even though my tree has colored lights (which drives me nuts) I prefer white! But our tree was a gift, so I'm not going to complain. 

4- Do you hang mistletoe?

No, I have no need to.

5- When do you put your decorations up?

The week after Thanksgiving!

6- What is your favorite holiday dish?

Probably ham and mashed potatoes and gravy :)

7- Favorite holiday memory as a child?

Going to my Dad's side of the family's Christmas party on Christmas Eve, and then going home an unwrapping all of our presents under the tree. That way we only had to unwrap the ones from Santa in the morning!

8- When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?

I was probably 9 and my dad had thought we were asleep, so he had gone and got the presents. Well I wasn't asleep, and I needed to ask him something. So when I went downstairs to find him, he was coming up the stairs from the basement with a big black garbage bag full of presents, and when I said "Dad" he hurried back down the stairs, which made everything even more suspicious. Because he probably could've acted like it was garbage and I would have had no idea!

9- Do you open a gift on Christmas eve?

Yeah, we all go to my husband's grandma's house and open our Christmas pajamas.

10- How do you decorate your Christmas tree?

I just started this last year, but I wrap it with a thick silver ribbon, and then I put green and silver balls all over it. I also have 2 little extra ornaments that I put on. One is a little snowman that we got at my mom's family's Christmas party a couple of years ago, and the other is a picture ornament that I put Jasper picture in, and it says baby's first Christmas.

11- Snow! Love it or dread it?
LOVE it, I really wish we had more than we do now!

12- Can you ice skate?

I got a pair of ice skates when I was younger from my Granny and Papa (they knew I wanted to be an ice skater) and I think my dad took us out on a lake once, but that was so long ago, so I'm not sure how I would be to do it again. But I really do want to try!

13- Do you remember your favorite gift?

A CD player. I know sounds kind of lame, but I absolutely LOVE music, and my mom knew that so she got me one for Christmas and I was so happy  ecstatic! I was probably 12

14- What's the most important thing about the Holiday's to you?

Remembering what it's really about, and spending time with family!

Cheesecake :)

16- What is your favorite holiday tradition?
Probably opening Christmas pajamas with the whole family
