Christmas Tag ( I stole it from Paula:)


1.CANDY CANES--PEPPERMINT OR CHERRY?
Cherry all the way! The peppermint is way too strong.

2.GINGERBREAD HOUSES--KIT OR HOMEMADE?
Kit, since I don't know how to make gingerbread.

3.MOST ANNOYING CHRISTMAS SONG?
"Mary did you know, that your baby boy" it drives me up the wall.

4.FAVORITE CHRISTMAS SONG
Christmas Song, by Nat King Cole and no one else!!!!

5.MOST MEMORABLE CHRISTMAS PRESENT YOU RECEIVED AS A CHILD
One year we had finished opening up our presents and thought we were all threw, but then my dad walked behind the couch to go into the kitchen. He discovered a box of the coolest stamps I had seen in my life. We asked who they were for and my mom couldn't remember so she sat for a minute and thought. After what seemed like forever, she asked me if I liked them and then asked my dad if he thought Briana would like them.... I was heart broken. Then my dad piped up with, "Well, Briana would like them but Jamie would like them more. Maybe they can share." Whahoo! I was so excited, even though I had to share, to find a hidden present! Thanks Brooke for not being interested in them at all:)
Also, the christmases on mission were the best! I wish I could have had more of them.

6. MOST MATERIALISTIC THING YOU'RE ASKING SANTA FOR THIS YEAR
Money for children's books and a house... HA

7. FAVORITE CHRISTMAS MOVIE
Elf and Home Alone

8. CHRISTMAS MUSIC--DAY AFTER HALLOWEEN OR DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING?
Right after Halloween baby!!!!!! Adam is a staunch supporter of after thanksgiving.

9. DO YOU BELIEVE?
I did. One year I devised a plan to hide between the Christmas tree and the couch. I had it all planned. I would ask my mom for something in her room and then when she was back there I would yell and say, "Nevermind. I'm going to bed." All the while I would be shutting the downstairs door and running to my hiding place. Needless to say, my mom found me a few minutes later and asked me what I was doing. Very embarresing but funny.

10. GET DRESSED BEFORE OPENING YOUR PRESENTS, OR STAY IN PJ'S?
Stay in PJ's but do my hair and makeup so I like the pictures:)

11. BLACK FRIDAY?
My favorite time of year! I've gone every year since my mission. Brooke and I have figured out a system. I go and stand in line while she gets the things. When I finally have kids, I will get her kids stuff from the previous year for free and still stand in line so that we all benefit! I'll let you all know if the system keeps working. LOL

12. WHITE LIGHTS OR COLORED?
Both... I can't decide.

13. EVER BEEN TO THE NUTCRACKER?
No, unless you count local productions.

14. DOES SANTA LEAVE AN ORANGE IN THE TOE OF YOUR STOCKING?
Every Year! This last Christmas Adam thought I was so wierd, but he'll learn to love it!

Hey Congratulations on your new house! I just barely saw that post. Nothing can compare to the excitment of getting your first home. It looks so nice. I bet you guys are just thrilled. What a great Christmas present too. A new home for the holidays! We'll have to come see you guys when we're down in Provo.
