My Own Little Holiday Survey

1. What is your favorite Christmas movie?
2. Do you have a theme for Christmas decorations?
3. Of all the ornaments on your tree, which one is your favorite?
4. Do you like to go driving just to look at Christmas lights?
5. Have you ever had a white Christmas?

Here are Deidre's answers:
1. White Christmas and The Night They Saved Christmas (I can watch both over and over!)
2. mostly snowmen, a lot of Santas too
3. Parents-to-be 2004 and a Christmas ball from 1979 "Twas the Night Before Christmas
4. I love it! In fact, I just did it tonight.
5. Christmas 2004 and at least once when I was little

Here are Channing's answers:
1. The Polar Express
2. same as Dee's
3. Parents-to-be 2004
4. Of course! My hometown (Marshall, TX) is the Wonderland of Lights.
5. Christmas 2004 and every Christmas in Alaska. One year in Alaska it actually snowed on Christmas day.

1. I don't know if it's my favorite, but we like Elf...it's funny and clean at the same time (imagine that).
2. I LOVE snowmen, and every year I get a stuffed snowman to put out. Last year I didn't get one, so Mom bought me two this year. Isn't she sweet? I have a lot of the Mitford snowmen, too, because I worked at Hallmark one Christmas.
3. Yes, I think we're going to go tonight and do just that.
4. I can't remember, so I guess not. I'm not a big fan of snow, so that's okay with me.

1. I guess I don't have a favorite.
2. I don't have a specific theme, maybe cute-sy, if that's a theme.
3. I think my favorite ornament is the one I made a few years ago that's a ball, & I was able to decorate the inside of it with Nathan's picture & glitter & stuff. It was pretty cool. If I ever get around to it, I'd like to make some for the other 2 as well.
4. I love to drive around looking at Christmas lights. We usually try to get the whole family in the car & do it for an hour or so, but we haven't yet this year. There's still time, though. :)
5. Yes, I've had a white Christmas; I don't know how long ago it was, though. I think a couple years ago.

1. White Christmas by far!! Although we're doing alot of watching the claymation Rudolph and Santa Claus that we brought with us for Nathan.
2. I do alot of seasonal winter things like... holly and little evergreen trees everywhere.
3. I couldn't even begin to pick, because I have all of my ornaments on the tree (a silver dove my parents got me for my first Christmas, the bell my mom made when she was pregnant with me... my kindergarten cookie ornaments, my I love Lucy ornaments, and our first Christmas ornaments)
4. When we're home... YES! (Especially in Little Rock where the Osbornes go all out!)
5. I'm sure I have, not remembering right now though (I've slept since then :)

1. A Christmas Story
2. snowmen all the way
3. the FSU one...no just kidding... we have some new German ornaments that we bought together a couple years ago that remind me of the ones on my tree growing up.
4. Yes, there was a huge mansion in FL that we would always go see, and another house that did only white lights with a ton of stuff but it never looked overdone or tacky...I really loved doing that!
5. Yes, but it doesn't look like it is going to happen this year!

1. i'm with traci...i like elf. but i'm not sure i have a favorite.
2. snowmen are the best theme because you can leave them up as long as it's still winter
3. it's hard to remember because i haven't seen them in two years (sad, i know) last year, we decided (before we moved to montgomery) to get a real tree and then decided (in dec.)they were too much. this year, i had to buy ornaments in france (b/c mine are on their way to africa)...my favorite one here in france says,(in french) "my beautiful tree...king of the forest" which is funny because brett pulled our tiny tree out of the ground. ;)
4. absolutely!
5. yes...but i couldn't tell you when.

1. Movie? Elf, probably.
2. Theme? I think it's snowmen. Nicole would know.
3. Ornaments? A Marshmallow Smore's Man playing a guitar.
4. Christmas lights? I'm purely a social-lights view.
5. White Christmas? 2002. Stillwater, Oklahoma. It was awesome. We went snow surfing on a tobaggan.
