When do you usually start Christmas shopping? week before Thanksgiving (give or take)
Favorite Christmas present? for some reason I remember being really excited when I got the Heart to Heart Family playground set when I was about 12. Another favorite are the DVDs my dad made for Jen and I with old family movies and pictures burned onto them.
Real or artificial tree? real!
Colored or white lights? colored
Favorite Christmas memories? Grandma's punch bowl and cookies, candlelight Christmas Eve service and then opening presents, last minute shopping with dad, when we used to go caroling with church, day after Thanksgiving shopping with mom and Jen
Favorite Christmas song? This is hard... I love all of the songs on the old Amy Grant Christmas Album. I like 'Angels We Have Heard on High", "Silent Night", and " O Holy Night" ( I really like a lot of Christmas music....)
Do you like eggnog? a few sips is OK. I wouldn't drink it by the gallon.
Peppermint candy canes or fruity ones? Peppermint

GREAT BLOg...instead of all the cut and paste:
1. I have never watched a Christmas movie
2. I start my shopping all year, after every holiday and get things for no less than 75 to 90% off, put everything in a box and save til Christmas or a visit to Holland.
3. Real, but I have had to make a tree the last few years out of whatever I have laying around. Last year it was some red sticks that ended up measuring to a 6 foot tree.
4. Mom's carmels, punch and cookies, BINGO and I loved the year Dad made me a big antique chest. I must have been about 8-10.
5. Definately "O Holy Night". I love music, not TV.
6. Eggnog...can not stand it

Your survey was a HUGE hit. I have gone to all the other blogs and see that everyone got into the action. Way to go
Rachel S. I started laughing when I read the "jing jing jing" from Katie. I don't remember that of course but I do think it's funny :)
