Christmas Taggety-Tag

1. Wrapping paper or gift bags?

Wrapping paper! I must be really weird because I really enjoy wrapping presents. I actually wrapped presents 2 years at Christmas time for a department store.

2. Real or artificial tree?

I like both! I love how you can have the perfect fake tree and you don’t need to vacuum everyday. Our real trees always seem to be a little like the Charlie Brown Christmas Tree. I do love cutting them down and making those memories and there is nothing better than the smell of a real tree.

3. When do you put up the tree?

When I put up the fake tree I put it up the day after Thanksgiving. I love putting up my Christmas stuff and the kids love it.

4. When do you take the tree down?

After New Years

My dad and Cody’s dad. (When they want something they go and buy it)
