What's new

So tell me

-Real this year and last year. Our Pastors parents own a Christmas tree farm here in town so we like to go out there. :)
-I like mostly classical songs but like Becca I am open to some new funky ones. I just like happy music!
-We do Christmas Eve jammies and the rest on Christmas morning
-I can't think of any unique traditions here...
 
I grew up next to a tree farm...literally you could walk out our front door...across the dirt road and into a tree field...so it's really weird for me to have a fake tree...but last year was a disaster so we are back to fake. Maybe once the cats and kids are older and we don't live in such a humid climate we will try real again :)

Classic Christmas Carols, no tree I decorate without a tree.
 
real tree or artificial? Real, here. For the fourth year in a row, we head to the Christmas tree farm the weekend after Thanksgiving and get our 11 foot+ tree.
Classic Christmas songs or remade funky ones? Not a huge fan of Christmas music, myself. :)
Opening presents on Christmas eve or Christmas Day? Christmas Day for sure!
any unique traditions? We bundle up in our pajamas and ride around looking at Christmas lights a few weeks before Christmas.

We're all Fake here! Too much trouble with a real tree and around here, with the crazy weather, who knows what the tree would look like by Christmas Day. We do a Cowboy Christmas tree with a cowboy hat on top, rope for garland, and red/white hankerchiefs for ribbons/poinsettas.

Love all the Christmas songs but really love the traditional ones.

Christmas Eve is celebrated with the kids and grandbabies so that they can have Christmas mornings and the rest of the day with in-laws. Then Christmas morning, my parents and DHs mom come over for a brunch. Makes for a relaxing day for all of us.
 
I have a fake pre-lit tree, and then I burn "Fresh Balsam" candles from Bath and Body Works.
I prefer classic Christmas music. I got rid of my stereo last year, so I need to either load them up on my iPod or find a good station on the tv for them.
We've done Christmas Eve for the last 10 years or so. We don't have any real traditions. I miss having family around. I can't travel this time of year, and my oldest can't come home because he's in retail too. I think things have to change!!! Maybe next year!!
