The Christmas Tag

My dog loves a Christmas hat... not 

Hello everyone. I thought I would do the Christmas Tag that has been going around the blogging world for ages but I have only just got round to doing. I'm not a BIG Christmas fan for personal reasons and with life events lately I has made me hate Christmas even more. Next year I hope to spent it with my Nieces hopefully but this year I am actually alone which I weirdly don't mind. I have only hated Christmas since 2010 but Im sure next year I will get the spirit back. Here is my Christmas tag...

1 - What is your favorite Christmas Movie/s? 

I have three.. The Elf, Grinch and Edward Scissorhands. I could watch them all year round haha.  

2 - Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning?

Always on Christmas Morning. The past few Christmas have been abit different as last year I was at my Dads and this year will be alone but always in the Morning. I do like the idea of a Christmas Eve Box though (pj's, socks, film ect) which next year I shall do for my Nieces. 

3 - Do you have a favorite Christmas memory?

When it was just me, mum and My Brother we was lucky enough to have an Uncle who treated us like his own kids. We couldn't afford much as mum was bringing us up alone ect but this one Christmas we went to my Uncles who back then lived in this amazing big house with a swimming pool and we went there for over a week and he got me this amazing coat and my brother a football table. My uncle dressed as Santa, myself and cousins use to put on mini Christmas shows and generally is the first thing pops up in my mind when I think of Christmas. 

4 - Favorite festive food? 

I'm not a huge fan on festive food but I do love pigs in blankets! 

5 - Favorite Christmas gift?

A kitchen... fake one obviously. When I was about 5 I think! I got a kitchen and my Brother got a tool station. It was the best haha. 

6 - Favorite Christmas scent?

Deffo Cinnamon type smells. Warm spice anything like that.

7 -  Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions? 

Not really. One year I spent it with my Ex and his family and their tradition was everyone prepares the food about 4 ish and then the males go out for the night to the pub and the females have a pamper night in and everyone back by 12 to have a drink together before bed which I quite liked that tradition. 

8 - What tops your tree?

For years and years it has always been an angel but past few years it has been an star. 

9 - As a kid what was the one crazy, wild and extravagant gift you always asked for but never received? 

I've never been one of those kids who asked for anything as I was just grateful for anything to be honest but I remember circling stuff from the Argos catalogue haha. 

10 - What's the best part about Christmas for you? 

Defiantly seeing all the family but from now on it will be about seeing my two little Nieces and making sure they have the best Christmas every year. 

Love Katie
