Hi, everyone! Did you notice the new blog design?! I think it’s much more me than the previous one! Today I thought it would be fun to answer a little Christmas survey. Let’s get started!
1. What do you want for Christmas?
I wrote a whole post on that here!
2. If you still get presents from family: What do you think you are getting this year?
I’m pretty sure I’m getting an iPod shuffle. Other than that, I don’t know! I really hope I get a Garmin!
3. Do you open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
Some presents from my family I open on Christmas Eve but I open my presents from “Santa” on Christmas Day!
4. How early do you usually wake up on Christmas Day?
I was never one of those kids that woke up at crazy hours of the morning to open presents. I’ll probably get up around nine!
5. Favorite food/drink to eat/drink on Christmas?
Pecan rolls for breakfast! I don’t really like our traditional Christmas dinner – ham and casserole.
6. Do you prefer “giving” or “getting”?
To be honest I like getting (who doesn’t?). I really wanted to give special gifts this year but I didn’t get around to making anything! There’s always next year.. that’s what I said last year.
7. Did you decorate the outside of your house?
I don’t have any outlets outside to hang lights but I have two wreaths on my door!
8. Have you ever been able to sleep on the night of Christmas Eve?
It’s a little harder to fall asleep but other than that, no.
9. What’s your favorite Christmas movie and song?
The Polar Express! I think my favorite song is Night of Silence/Silent Night. I heard it for the first time this year and it’s so beautiful!
10. On a scale from 1 to 10, how excited are you for Christmas this year?
Probably a 7. For some reason I don’t feel as excited as I used to in the past!
And I big happy birthday to Grandpa Chuck today! The big 7-7!
I don’t plan to post anymore before Christmas, so I hope that everyone has an amazing one filled with lots of family, friends, and food!
Answer any of the questions!
Holy cow- those pecan rolls!
They’re my favorite! I may or may not be guilty of eating a whole pan.. π
Just found your blog and love it! I wish I had started blogging back in high school! Very impressive!

Thanks, Sarah! Your blog is adorable! π
As much as I love giving stuff to my family (especially my sister – we can practically read each other’s minds on what we want), I also love getting. π No shame. Happy happy birthday to your Grandpa!

No shame in admitting it’s fun to get presents. Who doesn’t love a good present!? Have a Merry Christmas!!

Thanks Liz! Here’s to hoping for Garmins!!
I always was up at the crack of dawn with my sister! One year we had all of our presents opened by 7:30am… the rest of the day seemed VERY long π I love your new layout!
