{All About Me: ‘Tis the Season}

In case you haven’t noticed, I love doing rando surveys–and this one is right up my alley with Christmas only 8 days away {yes, I said 8 days… better finish up those last minute gifts!!} Sure, we all have our memorable Christmas-isms that we have become famous for, and this may help enlighten you how I celebrate the most special time of the year:

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?

Growing up, my mother was notorious for the “perfect gift wrap”. She always had ornaments on each package, and she still does it… basically now, I copy her idea, but change it up a bit… I paint ornaments to make them personal {yes I will post pictures of this ASAP}
2. Real tree or artificial?

Granted, I love the smell of a real tree {maybe this is why Yankee Candle Mistletoe is my favorite scent and I would keep it up all year long}, but for practicality, I’ll keey my fake tree until next year when I get to have a BUNCH — hehe

3. When do you put up the tree?

Normally, the weekend after Thanksgiving… with being out of town this year, roomie and I did it the week before

4. Do you like eggnog?

No-thank-you {but I will drink some of this instead- a pomegranate martini}

Hmmm.. this is hard!! Probably my electric car… kinda like the Power Wheels, but mine came out before the Barbie Jeep- my grandparents still have it and I hope we can pass it down one day

6. Do you have a nativity scene?

No, but I am hoping that is something Mommy AKA Santa can spoil me with next year once I have a home of my own =) {this one is adorable!!}

My Grandfather–not only does he have everything he needs, but if he finds something he wants, he buys it himself… grr!!!

8. Easiest person to buy for?

MOM– I know her like the back of my hand 

9. Mail or email Christmas cards?

One of the only times throughout the year I use the post office!!  A little money goes a long way, and friends and family love getting Christmas cards– I know I do!!

These are mine from this year:

10. Favorite Christmas movie?

Love Actually– get out the Kleenex!!

11. When do you start shopping for Christmas?

Usually Black Friday!!!! Yes, my Mom and I are in the crazy group that gets out each year to throw down for a discounted scarf  or useless electronic =)

12. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?

My Grandmother’s divinity–it’s the only time of the year she makes it and it’s a fight to get more than 1 piece

CLEAR!!! Sorry to my future kids in advance… this woman will ever only have clear lights… the epitomy of Southern Classic Christmas= WHITE LIGHTS!

14. Favorite Christmas song?

So ready for next week to be here already… and yes, I am the adult who acts like a little kid, praying and crossing my fingers because I want it to snow in Nashville on Christmas… PLEASE!!
