OK, so I am not one to forward e-mails. I received this in an e-mail and not wanting to forward it, I would normally just delete it. However I noticed something like this posted on one of my friends blogs, and thought I could maybe put this on my blog. If you want to put it on your blog, or forward it in an e-mail feel free to do so. If you don't that is fine too.
1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I do wrapping paper for Christmas gifts. That way kids have a harder time seeing what is under the tree for them. I use gift bags for most birthday presents.
2. Real tree or Artificial? Artificial. Ever since I got married, we have only lived in apartments, and some apartments don't let you have real trees. Plus, it is a one time expense. I don't have to spend money every year on a tree. My tree is also only 4 feet tall. It was cheaper, and that way, we can put it up on something and get it out of the kids reach if we want to.
3. When do you put up the tree? Usually the day after Thanksgiving. This year we were out of town, so we put it up yesterday.
4. When do you take the tree down? Around New Years Day
5. Do you like eggnog? I don't know that I have had it enough to say.
6. Favorite gift received as a child? I got a doll one time, that was one that you didn't know if it was a boy or a girl, until you open the package, and dissolve it's vest in water. Then there would be a package that had a card that told you the baby's gender, and had an outfit for the baby. That was pretty fun. Mine was a girl.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Mostly the people in my husband's family. I don't know them well enough to know what they would like.
8. Easiest person to buy for? My kids. It is easy to know what they like, and would be happy with.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? We have 3. One that is a small one with just Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus. One that is the Little People Nativity, and one that my husband had. It has been at his Dad's house until this year, so I am excited to use it for the first time.
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? I don't usually send Christmas cards.
11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? I don't know. I try to appreciate all the gifts I am given.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? When I was little my parents recorded "Today's Special Christmas" It is still one of my favorites to watch.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? Last year I started in July. This year I wasn't as organized, and started in November.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? I don't know.
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Turkey dinner with all the trimmings.
16. Lights on the tree? Yes
17. Favorite Christmas song? Carrol of the bells.
18.Travel at Christmas or stay home? Sometimes we travel, sometimes we stay home. This year we are staying home.
19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Yes
20. Angel on the tree top or a star? We have an angel, because our star is too heavy for the top of our little tree.
21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning? Morning
22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year? All the commercialism that you see in the stores any time you go out.
23. Favorite ornament theme or color? Blue
.
24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? We always did our big dinner on Christmas Eve, and then had the left overs for dinner on Christmas. Made Christmas Day more relaxing.
25. What do you want for Christmas this year? A bread maker
26. Have you been naughty or nice this year? It depends on how much sleep I got the night before. But overall nice.

This is cute Julie, I like the last question the best. Good answer. And sorry to hear about Guy and the pack and play.
I had a Doll just like the one you mentioned in question 6. Mine actually turned out to be twins. I got another doll in the mail. That was pretty neat.
