Getting to Know Your Friends

Happy | Kelly Clarkson~Grown up Christmas List


Welcome to the 2007 Holiday Edition of Getting to Know Your Friends!

You know the drill. Please Cut and Paste.

Don't be a Scrooge!!!


1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? 

Egg Nog in small doses...and I love hot chocolate when it's cold outside with marshmellows.

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?  

The gig is up at our house and the kids have known for a while now that Jason and me are "Santa" and we both wrap them.

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?  

Colored lights

4. Do you hang mistletoe? 

  Yes...I have one hanging now. 

5. When do you put up your decorations? 

It usually depends...this year I put them up the day after Thanksgiving.

6. What is your favorite holiday dish? 

We have so many good ones...it's hard to pick just one.

7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child: 

The whole family (there is about 100 of us) all going to my grandparents house and having a feast and just be with each other. We do this just about every year. 

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?

When I was about 6 my dad had my uncle dress up in a Santa suit and he came in the house, but I regonized him right away. I did however let my parents think I didn't have a clue.

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?

We usually let the kids open a small one on Christmas Eve and then the rest on Christams Day.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?

This year I did silver and burgandy ornaments with silver garland and a burgandy bow at the top.

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?

Never seen it! :(

12. Can you ice skate?  

I attempted it at one point but couldn't stay on my feet long enough to do any skating.
13. Do you remember your favorite gift?

My Lite Brite...I loved that thing and would sit in the dark in my room and play with it.

14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you?

Spending time with the ones I love.  

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? 

My granny's pecan pie...mmmm!

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?  

Loading up in the car and driving around and looking at all the lights at different houses.

17. What tops your tree?  

Big Burgandy Bow

18. Which do you prefer giving or receiving?  

I love giving and seeing their faces...receiving isn't bad either Lol.
19. What is your favorite Christmas Song? 

Silent Night

20. Candy Canes? 

Yes

21. Do you feel Christmas is too commercialized? Or Is it still magical for you? 

I do feel that over the years it has become too comercialized, but it's how you yourself feel about it and keep in mind the real reason we have Christmas. It's not all about Santa Clause and stockings...it's about Jesus' birth.
