“Chestnuts roasting, on an open fire……” 🙂
So, today I’m feeling real holly and jolly today (possibly because of the Christmas party we are having at work today). As an extension of my holiday cheer, I am going to do the Christmas tag for you all! I will have the questions down at the bottom of the post for anyone else who wants to do this!! So, lets get it!!
- What is your favourite Christmas Movie/s?
My favorite Christmas movie…? Actually, Nothing Like the Holidays is my favorite Christmas movie. I don’t know how I stumbled upon this movie a couple years ago, but ever since, I HAVE to watch it at least 3 times during the Christmas holidays! My favorite line?
“I’M NOT GONNA RUN THE BODEGA!”
LOL.
- Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Christmas morning! And I am definitely someone who will be up at the crack of dawn (even before my own toddler), ready to open gifts. Christmas has always been one of my favorite holidays, and now that I am a mother. I am enjoying more of watching my daughter and nephew open their gifts and see the joy on their faces for the holiday.
- Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?
There is a video of my daughter and my nephew’s first Christmas, where they were wearing matching onesies. My nephew was playing drums, and my daughter was dancing. It was classic Kynn and Preston, and I loved it. I think that is the year we knew they completely enjoyed their Christmas.
- Favourite festive food?
I LOVE turkey and dressing, with cranberry sauce and giblet gravy. That is my all time favorite combination at holiday time. That and apple pie for dessert. And let’s not forget the wine 🙂 ….
- Favourite Christmas gift?
I don’t know if I have a favorite Christmas gift. What I enjoy the most is when someone gets me something that they KNOW I will love; or if they take the time to get me something that I specifically asked for or casually mentioned in passing conversation. Thoughtful gifts are the way to my heart.
- Favourite Christmas scent?
Ehh, I don’t have a specific scent, but I know when I start to smell cinammon, apple or vanilla type scents, I am knee deep into the holiday season!
- Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions?
No Christmas Eve traditions, although I would like to develop one for my daughter. I know she will want to make cookies for Santa and write a note. I also may let her open one gift the night before. 🙂
- What tops your tree?
Right now, a star. I want to get a really pretty angel like my grandmother has on the top of her tree. It’s gorgeous!
- As a kid what was the one (crazy, wild, extravagant) gift you always asked for but never received?
I’d have to say I was pretty blessed. I can’t think of anything I asked for that I never got for Christmas or at one point in my life. I also have gotten older and don’t ask for much; Im in a season in my life where I’d rather give than receive.
- What’s the best part about Christmas for you?
Spending time with my family and friends. Period. I have always loved Christmas because I knew that was the one holiday of the year that everyone will come together for a day and be joyful and laugh and have fun. As everyone has grown, we have all made our own new traditions, but one thing that I will never give up is having the ones I love the most with me on Christmas.
