Welcome Friends ... to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4. It's been quite a while since I participated.
Let's discuss Christmas!
1. Is your tree up? How tall... what color lights? Is there a color scheme you use? We kind of procrastinated putting up the tree this year because we ended up taking in a little feral kitten that we have aptly named Tumbledart. This year we put our tree up in our den and the hairballs have been snagging ornaments and bows left and right. LOL! Our tree is 7 feet tall, multi-color lights, and an array of all types of ornaments ranging from Coca Cola to Rustic.
2. Got a menu for Christmas Eve and Day? Always a quick breakfast! We have decided to go non-traditional this year - Spaghetti and Meatballs with garlic bread won!
3. When does it go up and how long does it stay up? Normally the day after Thanksgiving but this year it went up mid-December. Between me getting a new job and the new little kitten, things have been a bit chaotic in our house lately.
4. What is your favorite Christmas memory. When do you open your gifts? My favorite Christmas memory from my childhood has to be when I got my pink Huffy bicycle!! Haha. I couldn't wait to go out and ride it. Now, I am just thankful to enjoy the season with my amazing family. We open our gifts on Christmas morning after making a quick breakfast and having some hot coffee!
We have Christmas brunch each year, but I am thinking of a non-traditional approach to it this year.
ReplyDeleteHave a Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well, Anne!
DeleteOur meals are potluck and everyone likes Mexican food. We make the specialties that take more work to do. I like your snowflake decord!
ReplyDeleteWe love Mexican here as well!! LOL! When we used to get together with my husband's extended family, we always made Mexican dishes at Christmas. =) Ty! Snowflakes are lovely. Wish we had them in Texas!!
