Let’s take a survey! You can answer with ‘when I was a kid’ or ‘now as an adult’ answers – I don’t judge. (You can copy-and-paste if you like.)
1. Do you open presents Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or other?
2. Do you do stockings?
3. White lights or colored lights?
4. Real or fake tree?
5. Tree topper?
1. Do you open presents Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or other? As a kid, it was always Christmas Eve. Now – whenever I want! You can’t tell me what to do!
2. Do you do stockings? We have some, but I don’t always hang them up. We had them when I was a kid, and one year my Mom wanted us to open one stocking gift a day for each of the 12 days of Christmas. That lasted for 12 minutes. Sorry, Mom.
3. White lights or colored lights? White lights, non-twinkling.
4. Real or fake tree? Fake tree. It’s just so much easier.
5. Tree topper? It’s a little star this year.
