Christmas Fun

I got this in an email and thought it would be fun to do here.

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapping paper! Wrapping gifts is one of my favorite Christmas things to do.

2. Real tree or Artificial? Real or nothing like this year. Dad's doctors said we can't have a real tree so the only tree we'll have is my mom's little ceramic one.

3. When do you put up the tree? If we have a tree usually around the middle of December.

4. When do you take the tree down? Before New Year's if mom gets her way

5. Do you like eggnog? no thank you. Funny story though, over 10 years ago my aunt, uncle and cousins were at McDonald's and someone asked my cousin Timmy if he wanted eggnog. He said, "I don't like eggs and I don't know what nog is." He hasn't lived that down yet.
