Lets have a Q&A party

What better way to find out a bit about a person ! I have all the time in the world right now :) . I just got a new blog design from Briemarie. She has 3 new christmas templates. So anyway I thought this was interesting and fun so I will answer some questions and play along with my friends . I saw Traceys and I enjoyed reading her answers ! She's a fun blogger who also offers giveaways on her blog . If you want , you can answer these too, cause I'd really like to read them :)

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? I like doing both depending who the gift is for . If it is to go under our own tree then of course I wrap them in paper . I like giving gift bags to friends and neighbours though with the pretty crepe paper at the top and it's easy to stick a christmas card in the bag as well.

2. Real tree or artificial? It's gotta be real. c'mon . There is nothing better than the smell of fresh pine. There is too much artificial in the world. Heck I'd rather decorate an outdoor one than an artificial one . I have an artificial plant though lol

3. When do you put up the tree? I begin the first week of Advent or the first week of December

12. Favorite Christmas movie? I don't think I have a favorite . I think Scrooged is one movie that I like to watch every year . I also like Bad Santa . I'd like to say the Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe but I don't think it's a traditional christmas movie, so I guess we'll have to make it one .
