Getting to Know You EVEN MORE!

Expeditioneverstgrl question! Do you like giving or receiving better? It depends. Mostly giving. We still haven't opened our gifts. Waiting on my brother.

Giving

 

[ColdNeverBotheredMe]

For Christmas Eve, we didn't do much, had lunch with immediate family and went to a Christmas Eve service at my church in the evening.

It depends, but I'll just be honest and say receiving mostly. But I do love giving too, and obviously it depends on what the present is.

Orreed question!
What is your favorite holiday tradition?
Each year every member of my family picks out an ornament for the Christmas tree. I just love looking back and seeing what each person chose each year. I have some really silly ones from when I was little.

Thanks for the questions expeditioneverstgrl, Orreed, and Catherine (scarscar)!

OOC: My favorite tradition is just kind of the order we do things on Christmas Morning. First we do stockings, then breakfast, then presents one at a time. We take our time, don't rush, and enjoy the morning.

Merry Christmas Eve!
Are you celebrating today? What are you doing?
We didn't do much today. I'm at work right now with a Santa bell necklace on and jingle bells in my ponytail. When I get home we're having a huge spread of appetizer/snack foods and then going to church at 11. When we come home our stockings will be filled.

I worked until five, went to mom's boyfriend's Christmas Party, then went to my dad's house for presents. It was a busy day lol. But a nice one.

Giving. I had a lot of fun buying things this year and got quite creative.

Woah. Auto correct got me this time. Editing now.
Orreed question!
What is the most creative or best gift you gave this year?
I gave one of my best friends a pillow with a scene from tangled on it from etsy. She loved it a lot.

 

[ColdNeverBotheredMe]

I gave one of my friends the autograph of one of the members of a band we're both obsessed with. I got to meet them in September but I didn't know her then so she didn't come too. It was really hard for me to give it away, because I only got one, but I'm glad I did, she loved it so much.

 

[Orreed]

For my boyfriend he loves soccer so I got a soccer stocking and filled it with a Rita's gift card and candy. I also got him a little soccer ball in his school colors and in each little section wrote a personal saying, joke, special thing.

I gave my sister a frame and put a paper saying the "Ohana" quote from Lilo and Stitch with a picture of Lilo hugging stitch at the bottom

Catherine question!
Has it been snowing where you live? Do you wish it was or was not?
It is not snowing where I live, or in Illinois where I am right now. I wish it was.

 

[The Villianess]

It does not snow where I live, except during last year. How I wish we'd get a little dusting.

 

[Pearlgem]

It doesn't really snow where I live but I would love for it to.I just love snow!It snowed once where I live and it looked so beautiful.

 

[ColdNeverBotheredMe]

Nope, no snow. We rarely get snow that sticks, but when we do get it, it's awesome!

 

[scarscar93]

it isn't and i'm very thankful that it pretty much never does

i hate snow lol

 

[Orreed]

Last year it snowed a lot but this year it has not. But I hate the cold so I'm fine with that.

 

[expeditioneverestgrl]

I moved to Florida this past Summer so no snow forever here!

I hate the cold too but right now I am hating the heat.

Orreed question!
Are you/did you travel anywhere over break?
Yes. We're in Illinois visiting family. We come here every year right after Christmas and stay until after New Years.

 

[scarscar93]

Just back and forth between my mom's house and dad's house. They're only about 30 minutes apart so it wasn't much at all. I'm thankful to have a holiday without any massive traveling, though.

The only person I gave a present to (so far, I'm giving my college friends presents once I'm back at school) is my bf and I got him a J Crew button up and a Polo long sleeve. I just wanted to dress him in clothes I like hahaha

No, thank God. I get enough snow on campus I don't want it at home.
