Rebecca's Story

It was a dark and stormy night...

I don't normally forward e-mails, so I just thought I would follow others and place this as a journal post.

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?  Paper

2. Real tree or Artificial?  Neither-we do a nativity scene with three gifts from the wisemen laid at baby Jesus's feet

3. When do you put up the tree? I put up the Nativity after everyone goes to bed on Christmas Eve

4. When do you take the tree down? The Nativity is demolished within minutes of my son waking up-I use his stuffed animals and his baby doll, so he has to play with them!

5. Do you like eggnog? Never had it

6. Favorite gift received as a child?  I don't remember many gifts that I received as a child

 7. Hardest person to buy for?  Husband

8. Easiest person to buy for?  Mom

9. Do you have a nativity scene? yes

10. Mail or email Christmas cards? Mail-but I tend to forget to do it

11. Worst Christmas gift you ever received? Don't know-I don't remember many gifts that I got as a child
