Christmas Survey

I saw this done by Nikki and decided it would be so fun and festive to fill it out myself. I'm trying to get in the holiday spirit, but it's not really working. Maybe this will help

Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot chocolate. Never had egg nog, but no drink should have the word Egg before it..

Colored lights on tree/house or white? Colored lights.

Do you hang mistletoe? Nope, maybe next year when we actually decorate for Christmas

When do you put your decorations up? Occasionally we'll do it Thanksgiving Day or the first week of December.  Anything before that & Mac complains it's "too soon".

What is your favorite holiday dish? Christmas around here is weird for us.  Usually we go to my dad's on Christmas Eve.  Mac & I bring Chinese and just hang out. Sometimes we'll go to Mac's family on Christmas, but usually we work the next day, so we just hang out at home. But pudding pie is one of my faves if we make it to a real Christmas dinner

Favorite Holiday memory as a child? My dad dressing up as Santa.  He'd do it every year. I never caught on, I just knew dad was never home when Santa came. It wasn't until YEARS later as I was looking through pics that I figured it out lol

When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? I'll always believe in Santa...he even has a twitter...he's gotta be real LOL

Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Now it's Christmas Eve, but as a kid it was Christmas Day. First it would be presents from my parents and grandparents from Florida and then we'd spend the day going to my Aunt's house and my grandparent's.

How do you decorate your Christmas tree? Cheap decorations from walmart.  This year we have a 2 foot tree with some glitter balls, a few lights and some red bows.

Snow! Love it or Dread it? HATE it! It looks pretty at first lol

Do you remember your favorite gift? All my jewelry from Mac

What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Oh cookies and pudding pie

What is your favorite holiday tradition? Christmas Eve with my dad & either Mac's family Christmas Day or we go to the movies.  Last year we saw The Chipmunks..I'd like to do the same this year, but we'll see. Mac may go to his family's house.

Candy Canes: Yuck or Yum? I found some mint chocolate ones that I'm loving this season.

Favorite Christmas movie? Elf. Santa? I KNOW HIM!!!!

Saddest Christmas Song? Santa Bring My Soldier Home

What is your favorite Christmas song? Happy Christmas by John Lennon

Holiday Blog Challenge- Traditions

Day {TWO} - Fave holiday tradition, new or old

Growing up our tradition was always watching Garfield Christmas, Charlie Brown's Christmas & Rudolph on Christmas Eve.  Then I'd leave Santa cookies and milk along with carrots for the reindeer. Not too much has changed now that I'm 26.  I still watch those Christmas movies along with others.  We've started going to dad's house Christmas Eve.  Usually Mac & I stop and bring Chinese over and we just hang out. Depending on how we get along that night, my step mother & I may go to Christmas Eve Mass while Dad & Mac sit home and do...I'm not exactly sure what they do!

I want to start doing more with Mac and start our own traditions.  This year I want to drive around and look at all the Christmas lights while listening to Christmas music with a hot cocoa and the pup in the car. We'll see how this goes!

This week I'm talking about Christmas decorations. I don't have really good decorations yet (too young to have decorations I want to keep forever apparently), so every 2 or 3 years I buy new decorations for the house.  This is the year I switch.  So here are some things I may get this year

Christmas Decorations Wish List

I'll admit, I don't do much for Christmas decorations. Mostly because it's just Mac & I. We also don't have a big place for a lot. Normally I do the tree, stockings and some random decorations around the apartment. I was in Walmart last night looking at their stuff and got some ideas for this year and what I'd do if I had an actual house and not a small hole in the wall apartment.

I think we'll be doing a red & silver theme this year.

Do you change your Christmas Decor every year or do you keep the same?

What color will your Christmas be this year?
