1. How many singing/talking Christmas ornaments do you have? What are they?

-> Zip

2. How many Santa's do you have?

-> I probably have 10 Santa ornaments of various forms.

3. How many light up Christmas ornaments?

-> Nada

4. Do you have Mistletoe Toe hanging?

-> Nope

5. Garland inside or out?

-> Faux holly/berry on the mantle.

6. Do you have Christmas dishes, linen or anything else for your table?

-> Set of four placemats, but otherwise, I have a green table cloth.

7. How many Christmas and other candles are out? Do you light them?

-> None, but thanks for the reminder. I have a set of four angels that each hold a letter spelling out "noel". Gave those to my mother back in 1964 when I was five years old. She gave them to me several years ago and I put them out yearly and no, they have never been lit and never will.

8 Other Christmas decorations?

-> Nope. I try to keep things to a bare minimum. Helps me transition from the holidays to the New Year much easier.

9. Do you listen to Christmas music?? If so on tv, radio, cassettes/cd's/records?

-> Rarely, if at all. I have CDs and the kids will belt out a few songs on the old piano.

10. Your fav Christmas decoration and why?

-> Favorite?? I have a few:

**Six crystal hearts (kick myself for not buying more back in 1988.)

**Four stuffed lambs

**Crusty Tree (made by Career Girl when she was in preschool)
Initials of M, D, S, A which are really gift adornments that I decided to use for ornaments.

**Penguins

**Neon pink/orange/green/yellow geometric shape created by The Boy when he was in elementary school.

**Newest favorite that I bought yesterday, a clear fish with googly eyes and filled with blue glitter. It is just too flipping cute!

I have a bunch of homemade things on my tree too. Saved all the boys made over the years for the tree.


I love your favorites. Like your hearts...i wish i would have bought more bells yearsa ago too.


Never ever have i seen a fish ornament...too cool!


I too have candles that have never been lit. Nice that you have the noel now. some(few now) are tree ornaments from grandparents on both sides...love them!

Ruthie


so great that you got your moms tablecloth...great to pass down some day too.


Thats not bad for getting the decorating done in two days. it took two days just for the outdoor stuff. a day for the village and a day for the tree ect.


I bet he wants the santas. I hope my son carries on the decorating tradition too.


Thomas (my youngest), used to go out with a girl who's mom decorated with santas. Tons of them...way more that the 100. There are so many now she leaves them up year round. She keeps everything so neat i hear. She is the only lady i have ever heard that sheaves the cats to keep hair loss to almost nothing.


Grant now has the decorating bug and wants more stuff for the yard next year.
