1. Eggnog or Cocoa? I would definitely go with Apple Cider (not a choice, but my first) with a close second being FLAVORED hot chocolate, as in peppermint or mint.
2. Does Santa wrap presents or just set them under the tree? I think we had a little bit of both growing up. I like the idea of one bigger present from Santa, unwrapped, for Koen. We will have to discuss with Phil. haha
3. Colored lights or white? I am totally white! Except for on the house, I LOVE LOVE LOVE big colored lights that are perfectly straight and the same direction. Gina's parents house is my inspiration! Poor Phil will be up there cursing my name as I am demanding straighter! haha
4. Do you hang mistletoe? Sure don't
5. When do you put decorations up? This has been a big debate at our house, Phil thinks mid November and I am SO STUCK on thanksgiving weekend. We shall see who prevails each year, I dare say me! Ü
6. What holiday food do you most look forward to? Wow...everything! haha Probably my moms English trifle(however you spell that) Which I will be missing this year. May have to try and bust it out myself...yikes!
7. Favorite holiday memory as a child?? Hmmm...I don't really know. Probably my whole family sitting around the TV in our old house in Sandy watching Home Alone...when it first came out! haha I was so young, but I loved it!
8. What do you want for Christmas? Random nonsense mostly, cookbooks, Cd's, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE an IPOD but that doesn't really fit the student budget!
9. Do you open one gift on Christmas Eve? Yep, PJ's! Every year gotta get new jams!
10. Snow, love it or hate it? Love it for Christmas, I am always "dreaming of a white Christmas" I really like it from inside looking out but I HATE driving in it. I have anxiety the whole time, and sometime cry. haha, I am actually better since we moved here, I have really had to learn to drive in the snow!
11. What's your favorite holiday tradition? Wow I have so many, which I feel like wont be happening this year, time for our OWN traditions. I love making chocolates. We have done it since I was little and it is always a good time. I love Christmas music too. Strictly Christmas music from Black Friday on.
12. What's on top of your tree? A silver star
13. What was your most memorable Christmas? Is that sad that no one specific one stands out. They are all great!
14. It's just not Christmas unless you watch...? 2 things...Christmas Vacation, but only with my dad around!:( and Home Alone! Love that show! Love Love Love!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

That is a great list! Can I borrow it? I am most embarrassed to say that I have never seen Christmas Vacation or A Christmas story. Think I will have to do it this year. Yeah for cookbooks!
Sweet survey! I even learned some new things about you! Don't worry, my parent's lights are each individually tacked into place and the lights are in a perfect pattern! I am sure my dad can help the boys out once we decide to take that big step!
