Yeah, so actually blogging every day is hard because I don't always have stuff to write about. The Christmas spirit has hit me hard. I'm thinking about putting up the tree this weekend! It seems everyone is in the mood. I've seen so many people post pictures of their trees up already. Most years I try to wait until after Thanksgiving for Christmas music, but not this year. No siree. I'm listening to it whenever the mood strikes.
So let's do some Christmas questions, shall we?
1. Does your family send out Christmas cards?
I usually do a photo card if I can find find a good deal. I just send them to closer friends and family.
2. How soon do you start shopping?I've been shopping for the a month now!
3. Who do you shop for?
Mostly the boys, but also family. Jacob and I usually just do stocking stuffers for each other.
4. Do you put up a Christmas tree?
Yes!
5. If so, is it fake or real?
Fake. But prelit, because ain't nobody got time to string lights on a tree. I remember watching my mom do it every year, and she'd always get so frustrated. God bless the person who came up with prelit!
6. Do you like tinsel?
No. It annoys me. It's just as bad as getting Easter grass everywhere.
7. Do you use homemade or store bought ornaments?
Store bought. There are a few homemade ones though. Those are the really special ones to me.
8. Do you put Christmas lights outside your house?
No. I'd like to, but lazy. I need one of those lights you plug in and it shines all over your house. But someone would probably steal it.
9. Do you put lights on the tree?
Prelit, baby.
10. How about popcorn and cranberries?
Nope
11. Is there a wreath hanging on your door? I have one made with jingle bells that I hang on the bedroom door.
12. Do you celebrate it? Celebrate what? Christmas? Of course I do, or I wouldn't be answering these questions.
13. Do you hang up your stocking? No. I used to hang them on the mantle, but then we had the boys. I haven't hit an age yet where I can safely hang them without them getting pulled down.
14. Does your family read "Twas the night before Christmas?Jacob reads it to the boys on Christmas Eve
