1. Do you start your Christmas shopping on Black Friday or wait until the last minute?
I normally start pretty early, but never end up finishing until the last minute. This year is looking to be the same way, seeing as it's already Dec 10th and I have only bought one present...
2. If you could be in any Christmas movie what would it be?
The Grinch!!! I would absolutely love to live in WhoVille!
3. Which do you like better: Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
Christmas Day. When I was little, I always loved Christmas Eve because we would always go to my aunt's house to open presents and pop fireworks, and it was super exciting knowing "Santa" would be coming later, but as I've grown up I am more partial to Christmas Day
4. When does your family put up your Christmas tree and who decorates it?
I always decorate it :) I've never had a set date, just whenever I get in the mood. Usually around the first week of December. This year I put it up in the last week of November.
5. White lights or colored lights?
White definitely for the tree. Outside lights can be colored as long as they're not blue. Don't get me started on my hatred of blue Christmas lights...
6. Are you guilty of peeking at your presents or do you like the surprise?
I prefer the surprise. One year (I was 13 I believe) my mother was gone for the day and I unwrapped all of my presents, then wrapped them back haha. Christmas morning definitely wasn't as fun because I already knew what everything was. Granted, I do normally pick out my own presents, but there are always a few surprises :)
7. Would you rather live in a gingerbread house or in Santa's Workshop?
Santa's Workshop! I just think of the movie The Santa Clause and how fun it looked
8. Tell us your Christmas Eve traditions!
As I said before, when I was little we all went to my aunt's house. We quit doing that around 3/4 years ago and started going to a cousin's house. We always go to my husband's family usually the day before Christmas Eve, or the day after Christmas.
9. If you could be under the mistletoe with anyone who would it be?
My husband I guess :)
10. What tops your tree?
An atrocious bow... Well, the bow itself isn't that bad. But the ribbon I did it with doesn't blend with the rest of the tree, and I couldn't get it in the perfect position. I'm a bit obsessive when it comes to Christmas decorations lol
11. Can you name the 12 days of Christmas?
I can do about 9...
12. Have you ever gone Christmas caroling?
No.
13. Do you countdown to Christmas? If so, how many days are left?
I used to have a countdown decoration, but I always forgot to change it...
14. What are some foods and treats you can count on having every holiday season?
Better Than Sex Pie! Omg it is so delicious! I will have to post the recipe one day. And of course the typical turkey/ham/dressing. I am a total pig around the holidays...
15. How has Christmas kept its magic for you as you've grown older?
I am the only one who tries to keep up the Christmas magic lol. If it was left to the rest of my family we probably wouldn't do anything. Even though I try to convince them that it's the most wonderful time of the year (also my fav Christmas song. Click it, you know you want to!), they don't see it like I do.
