Holiday Survey

In the spirit of the season, I came across this fun little survey from one of my favorite blogs I follow religiously... www.pbfingers.com And thought it would be fun to share my answers

25 Questions: Holiday Style

Eggnog or Hot Chocolate?
Tough one, but I will say hot chocolate

Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
They are sat under the tree

Colored lights on tree/house or white?
Since we don't have a house, we just have trees and they have white lights

Do you hang mistletoe?
No, but I want to find one of those fun mistletoe headbands to walk around with...


When do you hang your decorations up?
The Saturday after Thanksgiving

What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)?
Easy, my mother's chicken and dumplings, DELICIOUS

Favorite holiday memory as a child?
The year all the kids got rollerblades from Santa. We went up to our church and rolled around for the entire afternoon Christmas day, so much fun.

What is on your Christmas wish list?
I have a long list of books I want to read, most can be found here: Pinterest Book List  
I also would not mind money for school ;)

Or diamonds...

Do you open gifts on Christmas Eve?
Now that I am married, we split the holiday. Last year we opened gifts with the in-laws Christmas Eve and with my parents on Christmas day.

How do you decorate your Christmas tree?
We actually have two trees, a pink one and a traditional green one. We were fortunate enough to have an ornament shower for one of our wedding showers, and those ornaments fill up our little trees.



Real tree or fake tree?
I have always had fake trees. Obviously the pink one is fake.

Snow? Love it or dread it?
The few times I've been around it I've had a blast, so I'd say I love it. I also enjoy it because when it does snow in Texas everything is shut down, no school, no work... Hooray!

Do you remember your favorite gift?
Barbies were always a winner growing up, but last Christmas my husband surprised me with a ginormous Chick-Fil-A stuffed cow, it was AWESOME! About the size of a small  human.


What's the most important thing about Christmas for you?
Getting all of the family together. Our little clans go a little crazy when we're all together and it's so much fun.

What is your favorite holiday dessert?
Pumpkin pie and peppermint bark

What is your favorite tradition?
Christmas dinner, everyone together and we open those fun poppers with little goodies inside. All of us put on the paper crowns of various colors and stuff our face with my mom's home cooking. YUM!

What tops your tree?
We actually don't have a tree topper for our green tree, but our pink tree has a silver star

Do you prefer giving or receiving?
Both, it's fun to give, especially when I find a clever gift or something they really want.

What is your favorite Christmas song?
A favorite?! I love holiday music, so I can't have just one...

Candy canes, yuck or yum?
Anything made of sugar is yum...

Favorite Christmas movie?
Elf, The Santa Clause, A Christmas Story


What do you leave for Santa?
Sugar cookies and eggnog

Do you have a Christmas morning tradition?
Driving to my parents house and having brunch

Do you prefer to shop on-line or at the mall?
The mall, I'm still skeptical of purchasing stuff online, plus it doesn't always look the same as the pictures, and you have to pay for shipping....

Christmas letter or Christmas card?
Cards, they are fun to display, plus some letters are rather lengthy

Just a fun random post, please feel free to copy questions and fill in your own answers!!
