Re: Christmas Fill in the blanks!

  • (these are great Merin!) 

    I'm dreaming of a drama-free Christmas...

    Our tree has white lights, white/gold ribbon, and is fake.   My favorite ornaments on the tree are my angels.

    My favorite Christmas song is baby it's cold outside, but I'd be happy if I never had to hear the Christmas donkey song again!  I always look forward to watching A Christmas Story and Four Christmases.

    The realistic thing I want most for Christmas this year is slippers!, and if we're dreaming, I'd really want new carpet!.

    My favorite decoration to put out is my kids' preschool Christmas decorations, and the decorations I'd like to leave packed away is most everything else :)

    When it comes to outside lights/decorations, the thing I love the most is classy white lights and the thing that bothers me the most is too many inflatables.

  • I'm dreaming of a peaceful Christmas...

    Our tree has white lights, and is fake.   My favorite ornament on the tree is one from when my oldest son was born...it's a little mouse sleeping in a nutshell and the whole ornament is about 1/2 inch big. The cutest thing ever.

    My favorite Christmas song is "Holly Jolly Christmas" by Burle Ives, but I'd be happy if I never had to hear a song by Bette Midler about not being able to give her kid anything but love for Christmas again!  I always look forward to watching A Christmas Story.

    The realistic thing I want most for Christmas this year is a new sweater, and if we're dreaming, I'd really want a natural uncut diamond ring.

    My favorite decoration to put out is a Hallmark display with a dog, a snowman, and a penguin riding a sleigh...and they all dance and sing. But the dog looks like its humping the sleigh and we laugh every time the kids turn it on, and the decoration I'd like to leave packed away is the nativity. But my uncle made it for me...so I feel obligated to put it out. 

    When it comes to outside lights/decorations, the thing I love the most is white lights and elegant simplicity and the thing that bothers me the most is tons of lights and figures just thrown out because their Christmasy...even though nothing really goes together.

  • I'm dreaming of a stress-free Christmas...

    Our tree has white lights, and is fake.   My favorite ornament on the tree is oh I have so many favorites!!  I'll say that our angel on the top is my favorite.  She is strange looking and 'well-loved', but she was the topper in my mom's house growing up, then in our house growing up, and now she's mine.  <3<3

    My favorite Christmas song is Nat King Cole's "I'm the Happiest Christmas Tree" or Jim Brickman/Adam Crossley "Beautiful World", but I'd be happy if I never had to hear Dominic the Donkey again!  I always look forward to watching Elf!

    The realistic thing I want most for Christmas this year is a cat tree/tower (and I'm getting one, yay!), and if we're dreaming, I'd really want a new camera & more lenses.

    My favorite decoration to put out is my angel collection, and the decoration I'd like to leave packed away is DH's damn low-rider santa (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e343pU3ehZY).

    When it comes to outside lights/decorations, the thing I love the most is pretty much anything done well and the thing that bothers me the most is mis-matched light strands and/or excessive blow-up crap.

    I'm dreaming of a drama free Christmas...(don't think that's going to happen Tongue Tied)

    Our tree has white lights, and is fake.   My favorite ornament on the tree is my animal (fr the muppets) ornament from hallmark.

    My favorite Christmas song is o holy night, but I'd be happy if I never had to hear any of them again! (it's hard to get into the spirit of christmas songs when you have to hear them for at least a month and a half.) I always look forward to watching a christmas carol w/ george c scott as scrooge and any of the old rakin bass specials.

    The realistic thing I want most for Christmas this year is an ipod, and if we're dreaming, I'd really want a trip to ireland and germany.

    My favorite decoration to put out is the snowmen(at least i don't have to put them away right away), and the decoration I'd like to leave packed away is the tree... lol

    When it comes to outside lights/decorations, the thing I love the most is classy displays of lights(lights on the house, railings, trees, etc) and the thing that bothers me the most is those stupid inflatables..1 is plenty, any more is overkill.
