I read one of my good friend's blog so I borrowed this Christmas Tradition Question. I thought it will be fun to let people read and help them remember their Christmas Tradition that we have grew up. As in hope that I will start my own tradition in the future.
Here is my Childhood Christmas Tradition!
Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate?
I prefer Hot Chocolate only when it is cold outside, I would stir it with Peppermint Stick instead of spoon. It always taste so good. I remember when I was little girl, I always love Egg Nog but now I don’t like Egg Nog anymore. I still drink Hot Chocolate with Peppermint stick.
Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree?
Well, My parents were very trick, they know the way around it. They will leave few presents under the tree but Santa will add more presents under the tree on Christmas Eve and surprised us on Christmas morning with more presents
Colored Lights on tree/house or white?
It depend at my parents’ house, at my mom’s house, we have colored lights on tree and house. At my dad’s house, we have white lights on tree and on house. In my future, I will just have blue, white, and silver on tree and house, just like Winter Wonderland.
Do you hang mistletoe?
At my mom’s house, we always have mistletoe every since I was little girl and today we still have it. Mistletoe was one of my favorite thing to hang because you have to figure it out where the people will stand the most under the mistletoe.
When do you put your decorations up?
On the weekend after Thanksgiving, we know it is the best time to decorated the Christmas on beautiful day before the cold weather come, it always worked the best.
What is your favorite holiday dish?
Um, that is good question. It depend which at my parents’ house, at my mom’s house, it will be mashed potato and gravy. At my dad’s house, that will be the devil egg. So I just love the holiday dinner.
Favorite Holiday memory as a child?
That one will be at my dad’s house, when my sister, my brother, and I went at my dad’s house. When we saw this super huge present, and we had no idea what it is in there. We always guess by what it in. Every Christmas morning, we always guess what it in, most of time, we were right. But this present is huge and we still have no idea. The first thing came in our mind was the coffin. I don’t know why we think of it. At first, we opened all our presents before open the huge present because it was for my sister, my brother, and I all together. We opened the present together. We found out that it was the trampoline. We were happy that we got it because we always want one.
When and how did you learn the truth about Santa?
I always know that the truth about Santa ever since I was little girl, BUT I do believe in Santa because I swore I saw Santa in sleigh with eight reindeer and Rudolph. I do swore that I saw Santa on Christmas morning when Santa flew to the mountain. I still do believe in Santa.
Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve?
Yes, we open gift on Christmas eve, as only one gift. So it is hard decision to know which one to open to receive the good one. Every time, I opened present on Christmas Eve, it ended up a little good thing by not what I want, but still love it.
How do you decorate your Christmas Tree?
Mostly of time, it was my parents decorated the tree. Sometime they will not let us decorate the tree. But at my mom’s house, she had some ornaments that is our and let us decorate it. At my dad’s house, it really depend, so it does not matter to me at all.
Snow! Love it or Dread it?
Honestly, I just hate snow because I do not like to drive in snow with all those crazy people but I overcome my fear. But what I like the most is snow on Christmas Eve while watching movie with hot chocolate and the fire in the fireplace, just love it. I love to have White Christmas morning.
Can you ice skate?
Yea, Of course, I can ice skate. I have been ice skate in 3rd and 4th grade and I still do it good. It had been a while since I had skating.
Most Memorable gift?
That will be the Nutcracker, that my mom make. I always love the Nutcracker ever since I was little girl. I have too many memorable gift and I cannot remember that much.
The gift that my mom make and gave to me
What’s the most important thing about the Holidays for you?
The most important thing to me is spend time with family and be surround with love from family and friends. The most important thing is to giving to people who need it.
What is your favorite Holiday Dessert?
That will be Peanut Butter Kiss, I just love them. I will be the only one will eat it.
What is your favorite holiday tradition?
I would like to start my favorite holiday tradition, is to watch Christmas movie as to drink hot chocolate with peppermint stick, and eating popcorn. I am hoping to start this tradition someday in the future. My family holiday tradition is going to church, but it is not my favorite. I am hoping to start my holiday tradition in the future.
What tops your tree?
I have two things, at my mom’s house, it will be the angel. At my dad’s house, it will be the star. So I have two Christmas tree at different house.
Which do you prefer giving or receiving?
I prefer giving because it make me feel good to give to someone who should deserve it. I remember when I was little girl, I was little selfish, I always rather to receiving than to give. But I learned a lot is that giving is always the good deed and show that you are loving and loyal to the people. So I did pay it back by giving to people that gave to me.
Candy Cane: Yum or Yuck?
It is yum, only if it is peppermint as red and white. I do not like any other flavor, only the original.
