:grin: When do you start shopping? I pick up things all year, but about now-middle of November-is when I start to get panicky and serious about it!
:grin: Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? Chocolate covered cherries and eggnog bread pudding
:grin: Clear lights or colored on the tree? clear on some, colored on others!
:grin: Favorite Christmas song? Beautiful Star of Bethlehem and Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
:grin: Travel at Christmas or stay home? Stay home! Thank the Lord!!
:grin: Angel on the tree top or a star? Neither-bows and ribbons with flowers and or berries
:grin: Open the presents on Christmas Eve or morning? We open PJs on Christmas Eve and everything else on Christmas morning
:grin: Does your family have any special Christmas traditions? We draw names at my Mom's house to see who's stocking we do...that's our gifts to each other
:grin: What interesting things does your community do at Christmas? The courthouse lawn is decked out with over a million lights and decorated with life sized animated figures and scenes; we have a Christmas parade in early December with Santa on the firetruck. It's wonderful...after the parade, Santa sits in the gazebo on the courthouse lawn and visits with children while the high school girls' choir sings and vendors sell hot chocolate, coffee and cider. It's wonderful, like walking around in a winter wonderland!
:grin: What is the typical menu for a Christmas meal in your family? It actually varies from year to year for other meals...but breakfast is usually bacon, sausage and ham, eggs, biscuits and gravy and cinnamon rolls.
