1. Wrapping Paper of Gift Bag? Wrapping paper with a stick on bow. Some years I actually take the time to do pretty ribbon.
2. Real tree or artificial? We have an artificial tree with lots of lights. I love it! We tried to go "green" once and bought a live tree but it died after we planted it. Even though real trees smell wonderful they bring on major allergy issues here.
3. When do you put up the tree? Day after Thanksgiving, of course! Ditto Diana!
4. When do you take the tree down? New Year's Day
5. Do you like eggnog? Nope...gross!
6. Favorite gift received as a child? I really can't remember back that far. If I got the black sewing machine for Christmas (and not my birthday) that would be a good one. I loved to sew my own dresses back in the day.
7. Hardest person to buy for? Me...ask my family.
8. Easiest person to buy for? Mark...buy him a couple pairs of new jeans and give him a gift card to Home Depot you're set. Oh and don't forget the dark chocolate box of nuts and chews from See's.
9. Do you have a nativity scene? Several! I even have a couple that are tree ornaments. I love them all!
10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail of course...You'd all go through withdrawls if you didn't get Mark's annual Chadwick Christmas letter. It's in the mail by the way! :-)
11. Worst Christmas gift ever received? Can't think of anything.
12. Favorite Christmas Movie? I think it's "Borrowed Hearts" but I really like "White Christmas" too.
13. When do you start shopping for Christmas? During the Fall Birthday crush.
14. Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? I don't think so. Do I get rid of anything?
15. Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Candy Cane flavored Hershey Kisses...I just discovered them this year....yum!!! I also like Cinnamon candy canes and English toffee!
16. Colored or clear lights? Colored lights outside in the yard, white on the house, and white on the tree.
17. Favorite Christmas song? I can only choose one???
18. Travel or stay at home? Stay at home. When my kids start moving away I'll probably want to travel though. Christmas isn't Christmas without your family close by.
19. Can you name all Santa's reindeer? I thought if I sung the beginning of Rudolf the Red Nose Raindeer I'd remember them all but I didn't. Bummer!
20. Angel or Star? Star this year.
21. Open presents on Christmas eve or the morning? Christmas Day! The boys keep trying to get us to let them open one Christmas eve but we're not giving in!
22. Most annoying thing about this time of year? It goes by way too fast!
23. Favorite ornament or theme color? I like all of the Nativitiy sets. :-)
24. Favorite food for Christmas dinner? Christmas Day... Honey Baked Ham and "funeral patotoes." Don't forget the corn, rolls from mom, and green beans with mushroom soup too.
25. What do I want for Christmas this year? I've already got it! All of my kids here! :-)
26. White or Warm Christmas? WARM! I like the idea of snow but I'll leave it at that.
27. Favorite thing about Christmas? Seeing the kids open presents and then playing with them the rest of day. I'm usually on their "good side" all day. :-)
28. Favorite Christmas tradition? Drawing names within our family and going on a $5.00 per person shopping spree at Walmart.
29. Favorite Christmas location? HOME
30. Who do you tag??? Michelle, Mater, Deb (when you get a blog going)

Please to see the "Merry, Merry" post on my blog. Man, don't you people read my blog?! ;-)
I can't wait to see what's in this year's card!
Love you!
I'm so relieved to hear that the Christmas letter is on it's way. I could use a good laugh! Don't worry Sherry, I didn't see this one on Mater's blog either. It's because we both got wrapped up in that picture tag that was so fun. Sorry, Mater! :)
By the way, I think we should help Deb set up a blog when she comes to visit after Christmas! What do you think?!
Hey, you updated the background! Can't wait for the next post. Hint, hint. :-)
