Instead of spamming this, I'll blog it! Post your response to as many or as few as you like in your comments...
1. Real tree or artificial?
We are artificial all the way!
2. Eggnog?
I didn't use to drink this, but Dale has converted me
3. Hardest person to buy for?
Dale's parents, by far. They have everything they want and never give us suggestions.
4. Easiest person to buy for?
Each other, cause we just do 1 big gift that we agree on in advance.
5. Nativity scene?
Oh yes. I'd like to collect several and put them out all over the house one day...
6. Mail or email Christmas cards?
Definitely mail
7. Christmas letter or just card?
We do some form of a letter each year. But it's mainly so we can stay on other people's letter lists. Because isn't making fun of Christmas letters the best part of the holiday?
8. Favorite Christmas movie?
How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Love, Actually. Oh, and the Abilene Family Christmas...
9. Favorite Christmas song?
O Holy Night, the Messiah, and of course, Jingle Bells by Wing (David and Sallie, did you enjoy that one?)
10. Angel or star tree topper?
We have a really beautiful angel, courtesy Mom.
11. Open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas?
Depends on where we are, but mostly on Christmas these days.
12. Most annoying part of Christmas?
By far, the commercials urging people to buy ridiculous gifts... A close second would be hearing "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" on the radio approximately 1,052 times per week.
13. Best part of Christmas?
Sitting in a dim room, listening to beautiful Christmas music while looking at the brightly lit Christmas tree.

Wait a minute! I didn't get a copy of your letter last year and that is so unfair. You laugh uproariously at mine every year, and it's only fair that I get to laugh at yours!
I love the Grinch. I also have to watch "Christmas Vacation" every year. It's more fun to laugh at the Griswolds than to re-suffer through the Abilene Family Christmas! "Mixed Nuts" and "The Christmas Story" are also entertaining.
I would decorate a lot more if someone else would take it all down on New Year's Day. Any volunteers?
Not true! You certainly would not have been neglected - you are on our Christmas letter list. Now, we may not have sent it out before Christmas, but if we sent anything, you received it.
Ah, but no. You told me about it being like a magazine, and I encouraged you to send it out. But, I never got a copy. So sad that your memory is failing at your age!
1. Artificial. I would keep it decorated year round if the closet was big enough!
2. Yuk
3. Any husband
4. Amazon.com Listers
5.Oh yes!
6. Mail
7. Letter
8. "Christmas Vacation"
9. Oh Holy Night, Silent Night, Gloria
10. Angel
11. Christmas Day
12. EARLY Store decorations and sales; the yearly fight about Christmas or holiday
13. Christmas Eve, after church, when it's quiet and holy.
