It’s finally here! Christmas! How did it sneak up on us so quickly? Hubbs and I hit the road late last night and made the rainy drive down to GA while Hailey slept.
Great picture, right? 🙂
Now we are here and ready for the Christmas celebration to begin! To get in the spirit, I thought I’d join in on the ‘this or that’ fun… so here it goes!
Michael Buble or Mariah Carey Christmas playlist?
Although Mariah sings one of my all time favorites (must I even list it?), I’m a HUGE Michael Buble fan. He (and his voice) are pretty incredible. I choose Mike! 😉
O Holy Night or Silent Night?
When sung correctly, nothing can hold a candle to O Holy Night. It gives me chills.
Gifts under tree early or night before?
We always did both! Family gifts on Christmas ever, then Santa’s presents would be there Christmas morning.
Opening a Christmas gift on Christmas Eve: yay or nay?
See above. Family gifts (or White Elephant) on Christmas Eve!
Sugar cookie or gingerbread man?
Neither. My mom’s thumb print cookies.
Eggnog or mulled cider?
I don’t really drink either one. But I’ll go cider!
White Christmas or warm tropics-like weather?
Cold! And wintery! Koda agrees.
Angel or star on the Christmas tree?
Star. Preferably one that lights up. Now if only I could find one…
Real or fake Christmas tree?
REAL. Is there any other option?
Icicle lights or traditional bulbs for outdoor decorations?
I tend to lean traditional.
White lights or multicolor lights on the Christmas tree?
I think white looks so classic, but with kids around, I like colors!
Elf or National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation?
This one could potentially end my marriage. Can I call it a tie? Let’s just say that Smiling is my favorite! But Hubbs subscribes to the jelly of the month club. Because that’s the gift that keeps on giving all year long, Clark.
Giving or receiving?
Giving!
Oh yes, that’s me handing a gift to my Grandma Betty. I can’t wait until Hailey can toddle around and play elf 🙂
Join in the fun! Pick one and tell me your answer.
And MERRY CHRISTMAS!

So cute! Merry Christmas! 🙂
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
Oh my gosh, Holy night gives me chills too. I literally JUST wrote that on someone else’s “survey” post.
PS- if that’s you in front of that Michael Buble poster…EPIC.
Merry christmas!
Jamie @ Don't Forget the Cinnamon says
Elf or Christmas Vacation?
Christmas Vacation all the way!!!!! We watch it every year and I’m pretty sure it gets funnier with every viewing!
Tina @ Best Body Fitness says
Do I see Popples??! Ah, memories!
And too bad we are far from a cold Christmas for you here in GA.
Jen@FoodFamilyFitness says
You know what Popples are?! I thought I was going crazy!! I was talking about them last night and my entire family looked at me like I was crazy and made them up!!! I’m not crazy!!
White Christmas for me, even though we aren’t having one this year 🙁
LOVE Michael Buble’s Christmas CD, O Holy Night, when sung correctly, makes me sob and it’s a tie between Elf and Christmas Vacation for my favorite Christmas movie 🙂

Your house looks so beautiful!
