Christmas Fun...

So I needed a break from all my finals this week, especially tonight so I thought I would do this little christmas thing!

*Wrapping Paper or Gift bags? I like wrapping paper for Christmas.

*Real tree or Artificial? Growing up we always had a fake tree, so I really would prefer fake! Easy, cleaner, and lasts longer!

*When do you put up the tree? As soon as possible after Thanksgiving!

*When do you take the tree down? Usually when we get back from our Christmas break! SO not till like the second week of January! lol

*Do you like eggnog? Yes but only if my daddy makes it!

*Favorite gift received as a child? Hmmm.... I always got awesome presents! Probably my favorite was my cool stereo with big speakers and the Spice Girls CD!

*Hardest person to buy for? My mom!

*Easiest person to buy for? Hmmm.... Tyler!!

*Do you have a nativity scene? A few of them, but nothing too special :(

*Best Christmas gift you ever received? Well this yearwe are getting a Wii from my parents so I am pretty sure that is going to be our best!

*Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Hmm.... cannot think of anything?

*Favorite Christmas Movie (s)? The Grinch Who Stole Christmas (with Jim Carrey.) and Elf!

*When do you start shopping for Christmas? Not till December or whenever we have money to buy something.

*Have you ever recycled a Christmas present? I plead the 5th too!

*Favorite thing to eat at Christmas? My dad's eggnogg! Yummy Yummy!

*Lights on the tree? Yup white.

*Favorite Christmas song? Too hard to pick just one.

*Travel at Christmas or stay home? Considering we don't have our own home, we travel and travel and travel. All holiday long...

*Can you name all of Santa's reindeer's? Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen. Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall? The most famous reindeer of all - Rudolf!

*Angel on the tree top or a star? Star! Angels on top of trees kinda creep me out?

*Open presents Christmas Eve or morning? Jammies on Christmas Eve and everything else Christmas morning.

*Most annoying thing about this time of the year? All the traveling we have to do to see our families.

*Favorite for Christmas dinner? Anything... Gina usually brings Sweet and Sour, and we do ham, and if I talk my mom into it I LOVE Grandma Veda's Chicken N Noodles.

*Do you send Christmas cards? Did last year, but was way too busy with finals this year!

*What do you want for Christmas this year? Hopefully a new cell phone! And a Wii!

I tag... Steph, Gina H, Jamie, Mary, Megan, Emily, Tiff.. and anyone else!

Oh, Christmas Tree

This year, I literally could not wait to put up my Christmas decorations. I try to wait until after Thanksgiving, but this year it was killing me. So, I had just decided I was going to put stuff up a little early, and then I remembered that all our stuff was in Lyman at my parents house... So to Tyler relief, I could not put anything up until we got back from Thanksgiving and picked up all our stuff. Here is a picture of our tree and other decorations!

Family Pics....

So this past weekend, while we were home with family, we decided to have family pictures taken. His little brother Ben is leaving for a mission in January, so we are trying to get a good one before he goes! We were up in the Uinta Mountains at Grandpa and Grandma Lee's cabin. Here are just a few!!
