Ten Days of Christmas Tag

Brittney at True Vintage Love tagged me in this Christmas survey! I love Christmas and I love survey's so it's basically perfection! 

1. What do you love the most about Christmas time?

I love that I get to spend time with all of my family all together!! :) It seems like it is the one time a year we all get a chance to get together again.

The women on my mom's side :) 

 I just realized I take a picture with my cousin/namesake every year. I can't ever catch all of the little girls, but I can always get one with her! :)

2008

2009

2010

I can't find any of my pictures from 2011 :( 

2012 - the year Iman asked her to be our flower girl! 

2. Do you celebrate the holiday in style or is Bah-Humbug for you?

I like to think I take a medium fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants approach. I feel like the holidays always sneak up on me! I always WANT to be in style and have decorations but things always end up semi-decorated

3. Are you leaving anything out for Santa Claus this year so he remembers to leave your presents?

I don't think so :) We don't have any little kids in the house so there's no Santa Claus magic at our house - we don't even have a chimney! But, I love seeing and helping out with all of the littles in my family. One of my cousins is always sure to kick us out by midnight because SANTA IS COMING. 

4. What is the one gift you are most looking forward to GIVING? {It can be to your kids, another family member, etc – remember to be discreet if they read your blog.}

I am super looking forward to giving my momma her gift this year. She doesn't think she's getting anything really, and it's nothing big. It's just special. My mom takes such great care of us and goes above and beyond than what she needs to, I can't wait to be able to pamper her instead. 

5. What is your all-time favorite Christmas movie? 

Love Actually! You can see my post about that here. 

6. What is your all-time favorite Christmas song?

Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses is my all time favorite Christmas song! 

One year for Christmas I actually wrote "I think I'll miss this one this year" on wrapping paper pinned to the back of my "Merry Christmas" shirt. Of course, I can't find the photo now, but that was little outrageous 15 year old me :P

Closely behind is Mariah's All I Want For Christmas is You! 

7. If given the opportunity, would you participate in an “Ugly Sweater” party and what sweater would you wear? Peruse one on the Internet or even if your own closet and show us!

I love Ugly Sweater parties!! Here's me at the one I hosted in 2010 :) 

And here's my dream sweater! (Cats galore!)

8. Have you started any Christmas traditions this year that you plan on carrying forward?

We think we are, but then it might be a little difficult to do in coming years. We're going to Vegas for Christmas with my dad. We're going the 22-24 and my dad wants to do it every year. Which would be awesome, except when I have very small children in the future. 

9. It’s Christmas morning… what does it look like outside where you live?

Either sun is shining OR it's raining. We always hope for the rain!! 

10. You just found yourself standing under the mistletoe… who comes up to give you a kiss first?

My one true love! 

I tag: Paulina, Cassi, Noor, Areeba and Amanda!

Can't wait to see your answers!!!
