Christmas Tag

I can't believe how quickly Christmas is coming!! Today we received a good amount of snow and it really set the stage for the holiday!! My biggest wish for Christmas is for us to get so much snow that we are snowed in and can't leave the house!! How fun would that be?!?

I saw this Christmas tag on Holly's blog and thought it was fun so here you go...
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper--definitely. It is so fun to buy!!
2. Real tree or artificial? Real tree. Kim is a stickler on this and I have grown accustom to it. I love how real trees smell and I enjoy picking "our" tree out each year.
3. When do you put up the tree? Thanksgiving weekend
4. When do you take the tree down? Around New Year’s
5. Do you like eggnog? Not really
6. Favorite gift received as a child? Shopping cart!
7. Hardest person to buy for? All the guys on my list!
8. Easiest person to buy for? My husband
9. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes
10. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? My dad's flannel shirts!! One year my mom got confused in the chaos of wrapping gifts for so many different family members that she wrapped my dad's flannel shirts and put my name on the present!!
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Miracle on 34th Street and Polar Express
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Around the first part of November
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? I don't believe so
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Oh lets see.....pretzel salad, deviled eggs, chocolate, and my mom's homemade chex mix
16. Lights on the tree? Wouldn't have it any other way!!
17. Favorite Christmas song? This is a hard one....I am not sure I could pick one. I really like all Christmas music.
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Home for sure
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? Of course
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? Star
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Both!!
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? The pressure of buying someone a gift and not knowing what to get them.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? I am a big fan of red, gold and silver
24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? Anything my mother or mother-in-law cooks!!
25. Favorite family Christmas tradition? Secret Santa

I tag anyone who wants to play!
