I am going to tag: Katie T., Jenny T., Michelle R., Maggie T., & Jami B (help you to do some posts!!). Here is goes:
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping Paper for Christmas gifts. Gift Bags for birthdays (I agreed with Christine)
2. Real tree or artificial? I love the feel and smell of real but they are expensive and messy! So for now, we do fake ones.
3. When do you put up the tree? Growing up, I think we did Dec. 1...but for me, there isn't really a set tradition yet but I like Dec. 1st too.
4. When do you take the tree down? Probably after New Years...meaning right after.
5. Do you like eggnog? YES I love it! Especially if you add Ginger Ale or something to it...has anyone tried Eggnog ice cream?! SO GOOD...the best is BYU creamery eggnog ice cream.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? There's a couple. When I got an American Girl, Molly..(sorry jenny to bring up sad memories for you...cough cough), and also when my dad made a gigantic doll house for them. It covered out whole wall!!(thanks again dad ;))

8. Hardest person to buy for? Husband, Joe...he doesn't need or want anything!! I have to really be creative for him.
9. Easiest person to buy for? The kiddies since they don't know what they want.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie? Nightmare Before Christmas.."What's this? What's this?"
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? As early as possible. If I find something mid-year that's a great deal and I know who i've giving it to, then I get it...but that's if I remember.

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? My mom's sugar cookies with frosting..it is SOO freaking good.
16. Clear lights or colored on the tree? I like clear or white ones. It gives it a very elegant, structured look which is what my apartment needs!

18. Travel at Christmas or stay home? Deep down, i'd love to not have to travel, especially with kids. But then again, I have to see family!!

Happy HOlidays! Merry Christmas, every one!
