Its All About Me......Christmas!

Some of you might have seen this going around via email, and might have already received it from me, but oh well, I thought I would post it anyway!!

I got this off of The Pink Clutch:



1. Wrapping paper or gift bags? Wrapped! I try to come up with a new "theme" each year! Usually base is brown paper then either fun and festive ribbons, homemade gift tags, or I've even used the paper as a canvas creating unique drawings on them!
2. Tree--Real or Artificial? 7 ft. prelit! I would love to have real, but we got a great deal on this a few years ago!!! Plus, we have a woodstove, and with my luck, I'd kill it before Christmas by forgetting to water the dang thing!
3. When do you put Christmas tree up? usually around Thanksgiving weekend, but this year we were ahead of the game! We put it up the weekend BEFORE Thanksgiving because with all the family and traveling, the next available time would have been NEXT weekend!
