Hot Chocolate

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
I sit them under the tree UNTIL I'm ready to wrap them :)

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white?

As SOON as possible after Thanksgiving. I love decorating for Christmas!

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)
Mashed potatoes!

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child:
Spending the night with Emily in one of our rooms and waking up real early and trying to send the cat downstairs to see if she would "tell" us if Santa came! (uhh we were REALLY little) Then Mom and Dad would make us wait anxiously at the top of the stairs until they went down and started coffee and put on Christmas music. We absolutely could not have Christmas without Christmas music!!

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
I honestly don't remember - I don't think I was upset though - just as long as SOMEONE brought me presents!

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
If I am lucky!! Sometimes we just do stockings and then do presents all the next day.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
Random childhood ornaments and others that I've picked up here and there. One day I will have a theme tree!

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it?
I like it if I can stay home and look at it. But I don't like to be out in it unless I'm skiing. I hate being cold.

12. Can you ice skate?
Yes- we used to have a pond next door in PA that we could ice skate on sometimes. There was one year where the top snow layer was so icy I went skating on the snow down to the pond!

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?
From last year - she wasn't a gift but it was the day after Christmas we got Caramel! I'm counting it.
