TTA-Christmas Q & A


Q: Real or artificial tree?
A: See two posts down. I have yet to win the argument

Q: Do you like eggnog?
A: No, I tried it when I was younger and it was such a bad experience, I can't get myself to try it again.

Q: Favorite gift received as a child?
A: A bike and a jewelry box when I was about ten.

Q: Do you have a nativity scene?
A: Definately. I think it's only right that everyone have one out at Christmas time.

Q: Hardest? Easiest person to buy for?
A: The hardest is definately my brother Brandon. The easiest is myself:) Brad hates when I come home and say "You bought me this for Christmas"


Q: Favorite Christmas movie?
A: I still love a Christmas Story and a Charlie Brown Christmas

Q: White lights or colored lights?
A: I prefer white, I'm not quite sure why though. It seems more elegant to me.


Q: Favorite Christmas song?
A: I love every song on Josh Groben's "Noel" CD


Q: Travel for Christmas or stay home?
A: Until I had kids, it was travel. Now that I have kids, it's definately stay at home. I want them to be able to to enjoy their day and not be rushed.

Q: Do you open presents Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
A: Definately. It's always Christmas PJ's



Q: Do you tell the Christmas story?
A: We have it on DVD and we watch it. This year, I'm going to play Amy Grant's "Mary's Lullaby" (I think that's the name of the song) with it. I've heard the video is awesome with that song.

Q: Favorite Christmas tradition.
A: When I was younger, I loved every Christmas Eve having a Japanese dinner and taking a box full of gifts to a family in need. My favorite traditions since having my own family is the Christmas Calendar. My kids love it and we are reminded every day the true meaning of Christmas.
