I voted 5. I love that time of year. And I'll fully admit it: I love presents. Screw all this "it's better to give than to receive, blah blah blah" crap they teach you in school! Getting them
is just as much fun as giving them.
I have a question that makes me sound dumb and not very world-educated.... people in Australia have Christmas during the summer, right? So are their decorations still snow-themed?
In Hawaii, its during the winter, but there's no snow there, of course. Santa's usually wearing an aloha shirt and slippers. And of course we don't have chimneys, so you don't see a lot of
those in Christmas stuff.
Except at the mall. Santa wears his regular suit at the mall. And I guess we do make fake chimneys with that corrugated cardboard stuff. So never mind. Yes, snow theme there too.
I was raised a non-practicing Jew. We don't celebrate Christmas OR Hannukah... we just get together sometime during the month of December to exchange gifts.
Maybe it's because we never made a big deal out of it that I never really cared for it. I hate never having enough money to get my loved ones anything nice. I hate waiting in line for 45
minutes at the drugstore to buy aspirin because there are a zillion people buying wrapping paper in front of me. I hate Christmas music, with few exceptions.
I do like decorating the tree, getting together with friends and family, yummy holiday snacks, and watching the specials on TV.
I love Christmas just as much as I love a Carnitas burrito from Chipotle. Of course, this Christmas will be one of the best seeing as how my 3 yr. old will finally know what's going on. ^_^ But
he'll be 4 by then.
I love it even more having children and getting to play "Santa". Their faces on Christmas morning and excitement on Christmas eve are priceless. Definitely a 5.

I'm like this demented Christmas Elf each year. I scare people with my cheer and stuff. Seriously. It's the one time of year I leave the cynicism behind.
I love the entire Christmas season! My favorite Christmas movie is How the Grinch Stole Christmas. I love all the holiday treats and my mom (the best cook ever!!) makes the best meal.
Shawna: I love love love Chipotle! I usually eat there at least once a week.
i love xmas cause my bday is 2 days before!!!! and i get to see my family and my dad gives me double money cause of my bday!!!! lololol...but the lights are awsome, i love having my tree up and
xmas music!!!!
I love spending time with my fam since we all live so far apart. I hate that I spend spend spend and buy more stuff than I should. Every year I say I'll change and give more meaningful gifts
instead of just MORE gifts. Hopefully this year will be the exception!
I love Xmas but I don't like the fact that I have to travel 3 hours by car to get to our relatives where we all celebrate it. I love being there but I can't stand traveling by car!
Amy I know all about spending too much every year my mom says that we are going to have a homemade Christmas where all the decorations on the tree are made by us and all the gifts given are
homemade but it never happens and everyone ends up spending more than they should.
We actually have a homemade Christmas for Joey's place in Tucson (I consider it his place because it was his before we got married and we don;t spend too much time there) and a very simple
Christmas here in New York. But I do go completely overboard with the presents and the carols, and the baking and all.
Pad my mom always goes overboard with cooking and baking at Christmas too, we always have way too much. I love Christmas cookies and my Grandma always makes peanut butter fudge during the
Christmas season and it is the very best!!!!
i l-o-v-e the holidays! i start puting up decorations the day after halloween (inside only) and my goal every year is to have the tree up and ready by thinksgiving. i like to have so many
lights on the tree and on garland that we only have those lights on to eat thinksgiving dinner by. one year i was really sick with the flu and literally fell asleep by the tree because i wanted
those damn lights done. didn't make it, but i sure did try.
Christmas shopping can get way too stressful, I definitely agree with that. I hate getting wrapped up in spending way too much on presents.. I won't go all Barney on your arses talking shizz
about the true meaning of Christmas (LOL) but people DO spend too much money during the Holidays.

I LOVE Christmas. I go nuts with the cookies. And I love wrapping presents. LOVE wrapping presents.
I loved it as a kid and now that I am grown and have my own children I have found so many more reasons to love this holiday.
I love it too. I love the lights, the presents, the turkey, the family together...
I have a question that makes me sound dumb and not very world-educated.... people in Australia have Christmas during the summer, right? So are their decorations still snow-themed?
Good point SPM. I am curious now too!
Jen- do you LOVE wrapping presents???
How'd you guess?
Our Christmas are during the summer too, and yes, we have the snow-theme. I think it's because Santa is from North Pole!
In Hawaii, its during the winter, but there's no snow there, of course. Santa's usually wearing an aloha shirt and slippers. And of course we don't have chimneys, so you don't see a lot of those in Christmas stuff.
Except at the mall. Santa wears his regular suit at the mall. And I guess we do make fake chimneys with that corrugated cardboard stuff. So never mind. Yes, snow theme there too.
aw how cute tho! i love the idea of santa in a hawaiian shirt and slippers!
Here's a bunch of Hawaiian Christmas cards, Blonde. Not a lot of snow.

So, I chose 2.

I love it! My favorite holiday! then Thanksgiving, then Easter, then Valentines day.
Hmmm, I'd have to say #1 is Christmas, then Easter, then Thanksgiving, and I'm not that crazy about Valentines Day but I won't go there, lol.

I hate Christmas shopping
