What's Christmas to you?

With a title like that, you might think I'm going for some deep reflection on the true meaning of Christmas.

You'd be wrong.

If you follow me or some of my boys on facebook or instagram, you might have seen our big discussion on the appropriate time to start listening to Christmas music. In case you missed it, the answer is whenever you feel like it. Most Christmas songs are cheerful and full of joy and if that gives you a pick-me-up, then you don't need to wait until after Thanksgiving for the boost.

Side note:  if your favorite carols include Blue Christmas or Christmas Shoes, then you have bigger issues than I can deal with in a single blogpost. Also, Christmas Shoes is not a Christmas song. It's a travesty that ought to be destroyed.

So I have a few questions for you about the holiday season. Feel free to answer one or all. Feel free to listen to Christmas music while you answer. Or Easter music. I don't judge.

1.What's your favorite Christmas movie?

2. What's your favorite Christmas song?

3. Name a holiday tradition that you always observe.

4. Finish this statement:  "My home's not decorated until ..."

5. What one decoration do you absolutely hate?

6. When do you put up your Christmas decorations?

My answers are in the comments.

    1. I don’t really have one...I like a good bit of them
    2. Joy to the World
    3. Recently started a 12 Days of Christmas tradition with the kids where they get to open a gift a day the 12 days leading up to Christmas. These gifts are typically things they need (clothing, books, snacks, etc.) just to get everyone.
    4. The tree is up and decorated
    5. Santa
    6. If it’s up to me: Black Friday. If it’s up to my husband: December 1. We compromised this year...most of it went up yesterday!
