It's Ok

Linking up with Neely and Amber for It's OK Thursday...

It's OK that I still have Christmas shopping to to and I only have 2 more days to do it!
It's OK that TOMS came to the rescue this year as far as gifts go.

It's OK that I didn't make it the full 2 weeks again as a vegetarian.
Nope, tonight I had a Big Mac.  Big FAIL!

It's OK that my sisters and I took 5 kids to the mall today....sounds manageable, but boy were we wrong!

It's OK that tomorrow is going to be movie and pajama day for this babysitter...no more malls!

It's OK that my room looks like a tornado hit it...cleaning in my pj's tomorrow sounds like a great idea.

It's OK that I am leaving Coral with my mom next week while I go out of town.
I know she will give Coral lots of love and attention, but I still wish I could take her on the train with me.

It's OK that I am doing this Christmas survey because I have seen it everywhere and I felt like doing it.


1. Eggnog or hot chocolate?
hot chocolate, but only because I've never had eggnog.
I plan on trying it really soon!

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just set them under the tree?Just puts them under the tree....at least that is what he did for me.
My parents gifts were wrapped and Santa's were on display.

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

4. Do you hang mistletoe?No, but I should go get some!  I have hung it in the past.

5. When do you put your decorations up?Usually the day after Thanksgiving, but this year it was the weekend before Thanksgiving.
I just couldn't wait any longer.

6. What is your favorite holiday dish?Oh goodness, a better questions would be what isn't my favorite dish?!?

7. Favorite holiday memory as a child?Opening one gift on Christmas Eve.

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
What, there's no Santa?

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?We always did as kids.

10. How do you decorate your Christmas tree?
This year, my tree is very whimsical!

11. Snow! Love it or dread it?Love it....dreaded it when I lived in NY and we had snow piles on top of snow piles.

12. Can you ice skate?
I will let you know...

13. Do you remember your favorite gift?I've had plenty of amazing gifts. My friends and family always know just what to get me. :)

14. What’s the most important thing about the holidays for you?
Being with family and remembering that Jesus is the reason for the season!

15. What is your favorite holiday dessert?
Pecan Pie

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition?

Waking up, making a cup of coffee, turning on Happy Christmas by John Lennon, and opening presents by the fire.

17. What tops your tree?Growing up it was always this star, but this year it is my pink santa hat.

18. Which do you prefer: giving or receiving?I LOVE giving. I get a little carried away and buy too many presents sometimes, but I love seeing people's reactions as they open what I got for them.

19. Candy canes: yuck or yum?I don't like the peppermint ones, but I love the Sweet Tart and Jolly Rancher ones.

20. Favorite Christmas show?
Miracle on 34th is my favorite Christmas movie.

21. Saddest Christmas song?Christmas Shoes

22. What’s your favorite Christmas song?
I love so many, but I guess it would have to be All I Want for Christmas is You or Baby It's Cold Outside



Happy Thursday lovelies!
XoXo

I don't know if I could ever become a vegetarian. I love cheeseburgers too much! :)

Girl, my bedroom looks like a tornado has gone through it too! I seriously need to do some cleaning when I have a couple of days off after Christmas.

I always loved getting to open one gift on Christmas Eve. The tradition has been altered a little bit now since I spend Christmas Eve with my boyfriend and his family, but I still get to open one gift before Christmas!
