Happy Christmas Tag

This is a fun Christmas tag in which I was tagged by Court. Wanna know my Christmas timing/style/decorating? You know you do.

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I like either one. Gift bags are soooo much easier & quicker, but wrapping paper looks nicer. It just depends on how much time I have to wrap it & get it to the recipient.

2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial. I don't like real trees. It sounds like a good idea in theory. But that's where it ends. The watering, the needles everywhere...who has the time?

3. When do you put up the tree? Our decorations have been up for a week now. Lincoln was just too excited to wait any longer.

4. When do you take the tree down? A few days after Christmas.

5. Do you like eggnog? Ggrrroooosssss.

6. Favorite gift received as a child? Baby Talk...it was a baby that talked. That was huge for me.

7. Hardest person to buy for? my brother-in-law, Todd

8. Easiest person to buy for? my sister...we like the same things, so it's fairly easy.

9. Do you have a nativity scene? We do, but it's not up this year, due to the 10-month old putting everything in his mouth. Not a smart idea this year.

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail, although I may change it up this year.

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I got nothin'. (meaning I have no idea, not that I got nothin' for Christmas)

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? There is only one ultimate Christmas movie. "It's A Wonderful Life".

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? Sure!

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Breakfast casserole & sausage balls

16. Lights on the tree? yes, all white.

17. Favorite Christmas song? Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire, & Frank Sinatra's "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas"

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Travel either to Texas or to St. Louis. This year, it's St. Louis.

19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? No, Rudolph is the only one that matters!

20. Angel on the tree top or a star? a big bow cascading down this year

21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? We open one present on Christmas Eve, & then all the rest on Christmas morning.

22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? Seeing everyone decorate their homes before Thanksgiving...er, uh...wait a minute...

23. Favorite ornament theme or color? all golds, silvers, bronzes, & whites...can't beat it.

24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? How can you choose this? My mom is the best cook ever, so anything she makes kicks arse.

25. What do you want for Christmas this year? Mine & Ben's list has dwindled since we've had kids. We no longer really get each other presents for Christmas...we usually just concentrate on the kiddos. I'm fine with this.

26. Who is most likely to respond to this? I have no clue...

27. Does Santa wrap your gift or leave them unwrapped? Wrapped. Unless it's something huge, like a hot wheels track or a bicycle. Then we display it in all its glory.

Ok girls, hop to it. I tag Lindsay & Melissa.
