3. When do you put up the tree? Day after Thanksgiving, but not this year.

6. Favorite gift received as a child? A Barbie in 1964 or 1965. I still have her. And a Chatty Cathy the year before. I no longer have her. She must have died...

Hi Melissa! This is a fun post, I enjoyed reading of your Christmas likes and such. I also love the things you won in the giveaway! All very lovely gifts. Deb
Hi Melissa,
It was nice getting to you better thru your Christmas likes post. And girl don't be fooled for one moment by the pictures on my blog, I had to use a lint roller to get the white kitty hair off the sideboard and clear a few things off of it before taking any pictures! LOL We'll not talk about the rest of my house... LOL
Thanks for participating! I loved to read your answers!
Fun getting to know you better. I prefer a lot of the same things, with the exception being a real tree.
Hi Melissa, When you said to come over, that you had something for me, I was just wishing it was that fabulous silver tea pot lamp! LOL! Just kidding, although I do love it! Thank you so much for the award that you passed on to me! I am honored to be recognized by you and do appreciate it so much! And Congrats to you, for being awarded the two awards!
I enjoyed reading the responses in your post today! :) If I don't "talk" to you before Christmas, I hope you have a blessed and Merry Christmas! :) ~hugs, dear friend, Rhonda
I love reading these lists. :)
I'm pretty sure that's the first time I've ever heard of anyone wanting forks for Christmas lol...I guess that make my list of a shotgun and food storage seem a tiny bit less strange lol
I've seen so many of these, and I always come away thinking that we all are so very much alike.
Thanks for visiting! I love reading your list, it's fun to learn more about you.
