Happy Tuesday. It is the last day of school for Ella, tomorrow starts her Holiday break. This afternoon she has her Holiday party at school, which I get to help with again. We also have our Girl Scouts meeting tonight with lots of games and fun planned. Tomorrow we will be sleeping in, baking cookies, watching movies, all the fun stuff.
Today is Tuesday Talk with Ashley and Erika. Today I am taking it easy and just going to do a little Q and A that The Blended Blog posted a few weeks ago. I meant to already post this but back pain and sickness has messed up a lot of things already this month.
1. Real or Fake Tree? Fake. I am allergic to real ones and hate being broken out in a rash. I thought of getting a real one and dealing with it, then I went to my moms and saw all the pine needles already everywhere. I'm good, I will stick with my fake tree.
2. Favorite Christmas Cookie? M&M and Chocolate Chip cookies, not really Christmasy but I love anything with chocolate
3. Home on Christmas Morning or Travel? Always wake up at home, but do spend a lot of the day traveling. I would love to find a way to change this and be home and everyone come to us. I hate being on the go and the kids not being able to play with their brand new toys.
4. Clear or Colored Lights? I am about colored lights. Our fake tree this year is pre-light and you can do white or colored so we go back and forth because Brian likes white lights.
5. Send Christmas Cards? No, I say I am going to make family photo cards every year and never get around to it.
6. Favorite Christmas Present Received? Gosh this is a hard one. I would have to say the last two years my mom has given me plates with my kids hand prints. It is the little things that are more meaningful than anything materialistic.
7. Favorite Christmas Present Given? Brian and I found out we were pregnant around Thanksgiving 3 years ago. That year for an early Christmas present we gave our mom's a framed ultrasound picture.
8. Stockings or No Stockings? Stockings
9. Christmas PJ's? Yes, we have matching Disney plaid Mickey and Minnie PJ's we wear each year. (i bought Ella's a few sizes too big so it would fit for a while, I did the same for Austin this year)
10. Favorite Christmas Carol? Carol of the Bells, memories of choir in high school
11. Favorite Holiday Tradition? I love the little things we do as a family: driving around to look at lights, going to see Santa (even if they cry), cuddling on the couch watching Christmas movie
12. Early Shopper or Last Minute? Early shopper, atleast this year. Both kids were done by December 1st.
13. Favorite Christmas Movie or Show? The Grinch with Jim Carrey
14. Favorite Holiday Beverage? Peppermint Mocha everything
15. Cookies and Milk for Santa? Yes always
What are some of your favorites of Christmas?
