1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? wrapping paper. Much more thrilling!

2. Tree--Real or Artificial? Artificial. I'm allergic to the real ones. It only takes about five minutes...

3. When do you put Christmas tree up? Thanksgiving Day because my mom is off work and we don't do our family gathering until that evening so it works out well.

4. When do you take the tree down? usually the day after or close to it.

5. Like eggnog? It depends. I had an eggnog frap today from Starbucks and it was amazing!

6. Do you have a nativity scene? Yes, a few posts back I posted a photo of it. :-)

7. Favorite gift received as a child? Probably my fish aquarium. I was in awe!
