1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?
I wrap presents, and if they fit - put them in a gift bag.
2. Real tree or Artificial?
Artificial. I'm allergic. This year, there's no tree in our house - no place to put it. But that's okay, my Mom and Aunt have a white Victorian style tree up year round to enjoy.
3.When do you put up the tree?
Mom's - like I said it's up year round. If I put ours up...probably a week after Thanksgiving...

It doesn't usually come down until early February.
5. Do you like eggnog?
No - I don't even like egg-drop soup.

Barbies (I gave those away when I was probably 13 yrs old) and the American girl dolls (my cousin is borrowing them), and my first tv set (i still have it).
7. Hardest person to buy for?
My Mom - she's a practical person.
8. Easiest person to buy for?
My sister - book gift certificates, she's happy.
9. Do you have a nativity scene?
Yeah, my Mom and Aunt's little one that went on their coffee table

Snail Mail.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?
Mom and Michelle are not allowed to pick out clothes for me - I love you guys, but ask Marti's opinion.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie?
I love all the older ones - the ones that come out now are usually stupid funny -spare me. My all time favorites are "White Christmas" and "The Christmas Shoes".
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
I'm usually a early-early bird. I try to start in August, making the list, finding out how much I need to save. Then I start buying.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
No. But, I have gotten a present for someone and then we're no longer friends by Christmas and used the gift myself - does that count? I'm not giving it to someone else.

The Christmas tradition I started about a year or so ago - Pigs in a Blanket on Christmas eve.

"Have a Holly Jolly Christmas" sung by Burl Ives
"Christmas Shoes" sung by NewSong
18. Travel at Christmas or stay home?
Home, I try to work a double on Christmas, but the theater is not working with me. I'll probably only work 6-close. We go to my Mom's to eat or out to eat (I prefer going out, less stressful)
