what you see, is what you get...





Welcome to our family blog! I enjoy making lists, but a journaler I am not! However, I really thought this would be a great way to keep in touch with people that we don't get to see or talk to nearly enough. Life gets so busy, so perhaps I can keep this current and in turn you as well!

A Christmas Survey

Another survey... but with a holiday twist.

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping - giving and receiving
2. Real tree or artificial? Real - until Shane cuts me off since he does all the watering
3. When do you put up the tree? As soon after Thanksgiving as possible!
4. When do you take the tree down? I like to enjoy it into the new year - maybe a week.
5. Do you like eggnog? Only when we are at a deck the tree party - has been several years.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? I really don't have a clue.
7. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes, I love it!
8. Hardest person to buy for? My manager who has everything and needs nothing...but we always manage to throw money into something that will go unused, unopened or regifted.
9. Easiest person to buy for? Kids - also the most fun.
10. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Hmm, that wouldn't be polite. Terrible wedding present - an stinky stale smelling set of kitchen hand towels and hot pads with country apple print - I am still not sure if it was a gag. It has been recycled in a white elephant exchange.
11 Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? November, or earlier if I find the perfect gift for someone
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Yes, I am this year. I got a jumbo remote control for a work white elephant gift and I think it would be great for my grandma - at the very least for fun!
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Christmas cookies and treats
16. Clear lights or colored on the tree? Colored lights
17. Favorite Christmas song? Mary, Did You Know
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Both
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeers? No
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? Star
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Christmas morning - at our household, whenever we can - for both sides of the family
22. What I love most about Christmas? Watching kids open gifts, starting new traditions, and I'd be lying if I didn't also love a little YHS reunion
