Holly Jolly Tag
What is your favorite holiday movie?
I don’t know that I have a favorite Christmas movie, but my family enjoys watching the Veggie Tales Christmas special on VHS and laughing at all the old commercials 😆
What is your favorite Christmas color?
Everything shiiiiinyyyyy, but especially gold, or purple, or blue…
Do you like to stay in your PJs or dress up for Christmas?
Yes. We open presents on Christmas morning, usually in pajamas, sometimes in fancy pajamas. This year I’ve also gotten in on the ugly sweater trend, and mine lights up!! I also like wearing funny headbands 🎄
If you could only buy one person a present this year, who would it be?
My siblings and I split the cost of a model car that we’re going to build for my dad, and I’m really excited about it so I wouldn’t want to take it back 😜
Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
We usually go to my grandparents house on Christmas Eve and see extended family, then spend Christmas morning at home and open all our immediate family presents there. Sometimes my other set of grandparents come to visit us from Alaska, and we get to spend time with them between Christmas and New Years 😊
Have you ever build a gingerbread house?
Once, a very long time ago, and it didn’t go well 😅
What do you like to do on your Christmas break?
Sleep! Last fall I came home for break and legit slept for like eighteen hours straight 😴 also get ready for the new year/semester.
Any Christmas wishes?
I wish for Owl City to make another Christmas song because his are the absolute bestest 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
Favorite Christmas smell?
Anything warm and sweet
Favorite Christmas meal or treat?
Ditto the above 😹
Which holiday do you celebrate?
Christmas and New Years
What are you doing for the holidays this year?
Probably staying home a lot, and also working as a temp at my school’s bookstore
What’s your favorite holiday drink?
Chai latte or apple cider (or both 😋)
Candy cane or gingerbread men?
Candy cane
What’s your favorite holiday/Christmas song?
“The Christmas Song” by Owl City (it’s not the one you think) and “Peppermint Winter” is a close second
What’s the weirdest gift you’ve ever received?
For my last birthday a friend of mine with the best of intentions gave me a bunch of random stuff, including shampoo packets from a hotel… Still a little confused by that 😏😹
Have you ever made a snowman?
Once or twice, but it’s never been very impressive since it doesn’t really snow that much here. I did however build a very successful igloo last winter 😎🧊
What is your favourite winter fragrance?
The winter pine forest Febreeze scent I suppose, although “At the Beach” from Bath and Body Works is a favorite year round 😻
What is at the top of your list this Christmas? (or whichever holiday you celebrate!)
A good pair of headphones (the current pair of $1 earbuds just isn’t cutting it) would make me soooo happy!
What is most important to you about the holidays?
Blessing my family and friends with gifts that make them feel loved 🤗
