I actually found these on Lelly journal and thought I'd do them! :)

 

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?  Hot chocolate

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? This year we're doing this different...one gift from Santa and they will not be wrapped (in the past they've had quite a few from Santa)


3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? COLORED on the tree and when we do the outside blue swag


4. Do you hang mistletoe?
No, it's poisonous and never been a tradition in our family :)


5. When do you put your decorations up?  Normally within 2 days after Thanksgiving.


6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)? Turkey or home made noodles...a tie!


7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child?
 Being sent to bed with the anticipation of Santa, my brother and I one of us going into the others room, not being able to sleep or just drifting in and out then waking at horrible hour in the morning (3 or 4 am), waking my parents, and screaming in delight (then being sent BACK to bed...we only did the 3 am once! LOL)

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? 9 or 10 yrs old


9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? My boys open up 1 gift...pj's, although this year they're also going to get to open up the movie Polar Express so we can cozy up on the couch and watch it!

 

10. What kind of cookies does Santa get set out for him? It's often a mixture of choc. chip, sugar, no bake...Jacob has always been the one to decide, soon Jack will be voicing in too!

12. Can you ice skate?
Not very good and it's been at least 12 or more years.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift? As a child, it was my barbie dream house. As an adult it'd be the butterfly necklace Jacob picked out for me all on his own last year! He was so proud and excited to get it for me!!!!

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert?

Great answers!!  I like leaving something unwrapped from Santa by the tree too.  My husband's family always did that and so he talked me into it when we got married.  However, this year we have wrapped them all... so it's kind of like breaking a tradition or something.  Hugs,

These are great answers.  I used to know how to ice skate but I think if I tried now I'd fall down and hurt my bum.  Lol!  Hugs to you and take care.  Sorry it took me so long to get here.  With the holidays it's been so busy.  Hope you and the boys had a lovely Christmas.  Blessings,
Lisa
