So, I wasn’t tagged, buuttttt it has been awhile since I’ve done a tag post, so why not a Christmas themed one! I found this one over at Destiny’s Howling Libraries blog.

What is your favorite Christmas movie?

Elf with Will Ferrell, but The Grinch with Jim Carrey is a slow second.

What is your favorite Christmas Song?

I like Jingle Bell Rock the first 10 times I’ve heard it in one season. I reminds me of Home Alone ^_^
I also like Baby, Its Cold Outside — the Elf version, and Winter Wonderland because I sung it in choir in high school and fell in love with it 🙂 

Do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?

Christmas morning! Christmas Eve I may open some from some family members depending on what I’m doing, but Christmas morning is the tradition and I like it. 

What is your favorite Christmas scent?

Huh… this is a difficult one… I am going to go with Peppermint! When I smell peppermint, I think of Christmas and winter time. 

What tops your tree?

I want a star, but I couldn’t find a good one to buy this year. This is my first year officially out on my own –not just in the uni dorms most the year — so I’m waiting until I find a good looking star ^_^ Therefore, this year there is a santa hat on top of my tree haha

Is your tree fake or real?

Real 🙂 Real or fake doesn’t bother me, I’ve had both. This year we went up to a X-mas tree ranch and got one though, which is always fun. 
Fake lasts longer though! Although, I might be moving soon, so I didn’t want to carry around a fake tree too. 

Have you ever gone Christmas caroling?

Nah, but I almost did in high school! I just didn’t have the courage to go with my classmates… or transportation. 

White or colored lights?

BOTH! I have white on my tree and colored on the walls ^_^

Eggnog or hot chocolate?

Hot chocolate for sure! I don’t actually like eggnog, although I set out to try it every year. I also love white hot chocolate mmm yummy. Also, hot apple cider ^_^

Are you a ‘Buddy the Elf’ or an ‘Ebenezer Scrooge’?

*shrugs* somewhere in the middle? 
It all depends on what is going on and if I am in the spirit of things. 

When do you put up your tree/decorations?

I don’t have a tradition. My mom puts hers up the weekend after Thanksgiving and my dad does it any time before Christmas, so I’m somewhere in between. I think by the first weekend in December sounds good 🙂
This year I did the weekend after Thanksgiving.

If you could travel anywhere for the holiday season, where would it be?

I’m good where I am currently ^_^ I live right in between my parents and my brother is coming home for the holidays so I’m good. Perhaps, if I could take my fiance to visit his family too that would be niice. 
I am still hoping we can make it to the snow before January.

Do you make New Years’ Resolutions?

I do, although I have a hard time sticking to them and I always forget them. So, I don’t take then seriously.
