• 1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?  Almost all of them are wrapped..an occasional gift bag.
  

  2. Real tree or Artificial?  Usually, we use our Artificial, but if we are in the proper mood, Brenna and the girls prefer a real tree.
   
  3. When do you put up the tree?   sometime between Thanksgiving and the week before Christmas

  4.....Beuller....Beuller?

  5. Do you like eggnog?  not really
  

  6. Favorite gift received as a child?   slot car racing track...why?  Because it was the most memorable.  We came home one Christmas after visiting my grandmother, to find it setup, with the cars running around the track.  We were convinced that Santa had stopped by while we where gone and set it up.
  

  7. Hardest person to buy for?   Everybody...:)  of everybody, my Dad is pretty hard, because he doesn't collect anything, and make enough money that he could buy anything else he wanted that I could afford.
  

  8. Easiest person to buy for?   ME!  After me, the next easiest would probably be the youngest daughter.
   
  9. Do you have a nativity scene?  I don't have one.
  

  10. Mail or email Christmas cards?   While I mean to do picture cards to mail out every year, it never happens.
  

  11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received?  Probably something sock or underwear related.  I usually forget the bad ones.  Though one year I got a brandy glass, with a cigar book, but I don't smoke, or drink brandy. 
   
  12. Favorite Christmas Movie?  Don't really have a favorite.
  

  13. When do you start shopping?  Sometime between now and Christmas...depends on if I have a solid gift idea for someone..which usually I don't.  hehe
   
  14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present?  Maybe...for a company or white elephant exchange
  

  15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas?   stocking candy...usually munch on that for a week or more.
  

  16. Lights on the tree?  wouldn't be a christmas tree without lights for me
  

  17. Favorite Christmas song?  Christmas Cookies...George Strait
   
  18.Travel at Christmas or stay home?  Some years we head to Brenna's parents.  Usually Christmas Eve is at my parents (across town), but Christmas day is almost always at home unless we are out of state.
  

  19. Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Nope
   
  20. Angel on the tree top or a star?  Nothing so mundane...a stuffed dragon is usually perched on top of our tree.  Been doing it for years.
   
  21. Open the presents Christmas Eve or morning?  Both...some gifts are opened at my parents on christmas eve, but the big stuff waits till Christmas morning.
   
  22. Most annoying thing about this time of the year?  Christmas Bills...Christmas Bills, its time to raid your wallet.  While I love gift giving and receiving, my wallet doesn't.
   
  23. Favorite ornament theme or color?  Did I mention the dragon?  There are several on my tree actually, though most of our ornaments are of the home made kid variety.
   
  24. Favorite for Christmas dinner? A nice spiral cut, honey glazed ham, and all the fixings.  Sometimes Turkey if we having been eating leftovers since Thanksgiving.
   
  25. What do you want for Christmas this year?   The kid+geek in me wants a Rovio, he is a bit pricey though.   I will be happy with some time off from work to relax. (vacation plus holiday time means I will be off work for 11 days in a row...work a half day...off one more day)
