7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child? getting up at 11:30 to wrap the many, many quilts my dad had gotten my mom...he had wrapped them each individually earlier in the day and hidden them in my room. Then once she had gone to sleep, I got out the giant TV box and put them all in, then wrapped the whole giant box. :)

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Well last year Joe and I opened our gifts for each other that night once Jenny was in bed, then did Santa and Jenny's gifts the next morning, but I'm not sure if we'll do that again or not...it was so much fun! :)
10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? With lights and lots of fun ornaments we got our first Christmas...I think this year though, I'm going to try to make some, and have Jenny help with some, so it's a little less nerve racking if she knocks it down! :)
