Sunny Side Up: November 2006

Christmas!!!

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? Hot Chocolate

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? Wrap...or bag. Santa gets a little tired of wrapping paper and tape.

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? White

4. Do you hang mistletoe? No. Who need mistletoe to kiss? ;)

5. When do you put your decorations up? after Thanksgiving sometime

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)? green bean casserole

7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child: The Carter Charlie Brown Christmas. We decided that we'd just have Dad go in the woods behind our house to chop down a Christmas tree for us. He did, but it was the saddest tree I've ever seen! It was about 3 feet tall and SCRAWNY! We put it on the counter on top of the dishwasher and attempted to decorate it up, but it still looked sad. By the time Christmas rolled around, the pine needles that were actually still on the tree were brown. That was a great Christmas!

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? umm...can't recall

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Yes

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? Well, last year was Taylor's and my first year...we did white lights, blue and silver ornaments (the round ones and the long, icicly things), and candy canes.

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it? Love watching it, but dread the cold that comes with it and the inevidible muddy, wet snow melt.

12. Can you ice skate? I can, but not well.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift? probably my engagement ring two years ago

14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you? hanging out with the fam...they're ca-razy!

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Taylor's grandma's bon-bons.

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition? I like caroling with Taylor's family.

17. What tops your tree? star

18. Which do you prefer giving or Receiving? giving

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song? I can't choose...I love them all!

20. Candy Canes! Yuck or Yum? Yum!

I tag Rosie and Phillip! Maybe it will get them blogging!

Curvy Quiz

My husband asked me to post this. Since one of the questions has the wrong answer (the breakfast one), there is a curve on this little quiz. Whatever you made, go ahead and add 10 points to your score. There, Taylor, you happy? (He STILL didn't make a hundred, even with the curve! How disappointing!) ;) So go ahead, take the quiz with the curve.

Take my quiz!

I was inspired by the tons of other bloggers doing this. Go ahead, see how well you know me!

Lee Ann's Quiz

*Funny P.S. to this...I was looking at my questions after I'd made the quiz, and I answered one of them wrong! Yes, I answered one of my own questions about myself wrong! How crazy is that?! It's the one about breakfast. The answer is really oatmeal, but I accidentally chose the wrong answer when I was making the quiz, and I didn't notice until now! Maybe it was my subconscious telling me that I really WANT to eat the answer I chose every morning. I'll let you guess which one that is...

Josh!, Pt. 2

Brushing teeth is so fun!

To us grownups, this is a boring kitchen utensil...not to Josh!

I'm such a proud aunt!!!

Josh!

I kept my nephew Josh over my long weekend. We had a GREAT time! This kid just keeps getting cuter and more fun every time I see him! He does so much more now than the last time I saw him...he's just so smart! Here are some cute pics I took from this weekend.
