Survey Survey Survey!

I have seen this survey on several blogs and I had to fill it out! So here goes...

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?
I prefer to wrap! It was a tradition for me to help my mom wrap presents when I was younger! But of course I did not wrap any presents from Santa! :)

2. Real tree or artificial?
Growing up we always had a real tree, but I think that it is part of the reason we all have allergies now! My husband and I have an artificial tree now. It is very much hassle free!

3. When do you put up the tree?
Usually the weekend before Thanksgiving! I like to have my tree up for Thanksgiving, because it puts people in the holiday mood when they come over!

4. When do you take the tree down?
It depends on whenever I have time. Sometimes I get it done before we come back from break, but other years It is a couple of weeks after.

5. Do you like eggnog?
Yuck, yuck, and more yuck!

6. Favorite gift received as a child?
A silver bell. My parents had read us Polar Express and then Santa brought my brother and I both a silver bell. I totally still have it!

I do not have a nativity scene. My parents have one that I adore, but I haven't ever found one that I love and was worth buying.
