Christmas Edition

I stole this from Betsy!

The "Christmas Edition" of getting to know your friends.

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper unless the gift is larger than the paper, then I cheer for the gift bag!
2. Tree--Real or Artificial? I'm a "real" fan but the husband won out and we have the Costco version {at least it looks real}
3. When do you put the Christmas tree up? Thanksgiving Day {the only day Matt has off for the rest of the year!!}
4. When do you take the tree down ? New Year's Day
5. Like egg nog? Yes! Straight up. None of the adding milk nonsense!
6. Do you have a nativity scene? One. Got it from my Aunt who lived in Pakistan for awhile. It's mini, however. I'm always searching for a good one but can't find one that's not cheesy.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Matt {we only spend $25 on each other. It's hard to find anything for $25!!}
8. Tinsel or Garland on the tree? Neither.
9. Worst Christmas gift? anything that's a necessity, i.e. socks, underwear, deodorant....
10. Mail or email a Christmas Card? Mail 100%
11. Favorite Christmas movie? It's a tie: Scrooge {not to be confused with Scrooged, which is Matt's favorite} & Christmas Vacation
12. When do you start shopping for Christmas? As soon as I see something that I think would be perfect. This means I'm always looking....365/24/7.

15. Colored or clear lights? Clear.
16. Favorite Christmas Song? WAY too hard to decide.
17. Travel during Christmas or Stay home? STAY HOME!
18. Can you name Santa's reindeer? Yes...only while singing them.
19.Star or Angel on tree top? I prefer a star but the hubby prefers none. He wins again {I pick my battles}.
