I've been tagged!!!

I was tagged by Jess to complete this little Christmas survey!!!

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?
I use both....I prefer paper, but sometimes I just get lazy!!!

2. Real tree or Artificial?
I love real...but my allergies don't...so, we go artificial!!!

3. When do you put up the tree?
Whenever I get the time...but it has to be after December 2nd, Pap's birthday....it's standing naked...no, it has lights....but it's standing in the den with no decorations yet. We were going to use our pre-lit tree, and it was too big for the space so we resorted to a much smaller tree this year!!

4. When do you take the tree down?
Well...since it's all snowmen, I figure I can get a couple more weeks out of it!!
Is that being lazy???

5. Do you like eggnog?
Not at all...but my son-in-law and the boys do....and my brother loves it!!!

6. Favorite gift received as a child?
A "life-sized" doll that I got when I was 5 years old...it's sitting on the bed in the back bedroom....N8 refuses to sleep in there because he says it gives him "the evil eye"!!
HA! HA!

7. Hardest person to buy for?
I usually buy what I'm told to buy...ha! ha!

8. Easiest person to buy for?
Me, because I really don't want a thing...I already have everything in the world that I could ever want!!!
9. Do you have a nativity scene?
Yes...I actually have a little collection of them in my curio cabinet...but, I only have 2 displayed this year!

10. Mail or email Christmas cards?
Mostly mail....we give out cards at church and give the "postage" to the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering!!!

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?
I don't remember a gift that I didn't really like.

12. Favorite Christmas Movie?
I like "It's a Wonderful Life"...but I loved taking Jess to see "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" when she was little...of course, that's a play, not a movie!!!

13. When do you start shopping for Christmas?
I usually buy things all thru the year....I got a lot of really neat gifts for our nieces and nephews at a Target after-Christmas sale last year!!!

14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?
Yes...sorry to whoever got it!!!

15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?
I'll have to copy Jess on Mom's 3 layer candy...it is delish!!!
But...I love my sis-in-law's sweet potato casserole
