For special presents, my parents make us sing Christmas songs for "clues" which are rolled up parchment paper scraps, and we run around the house, basement, attic and backyard trying to find the last clue that leads to the present), instead of a snowball fight...a water gun fight or something, baking a favorite pie together...:) hope these gave you some ideas!cmtaberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09898353780734731950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2540699962236248290.post-42457864842169319762012-12-23T15:35:19.226+02:002012-12-23T15:35:19.226+02:00Our first Christmas, I fought to have a Christmas ...Our first Christmas, I fought to have a Christmas tree. Tyler didn't want one (he was being very logical, not sentimental at all) since we weren't going to even be in Gainesville for Christmas. We ended up getting a very small and inexpensive tree. In fact, we got a discount on the tree because the top was literally broken in half! We had to duck tape it so it would stay up. We laughed about it and had fun with it because it was so fitting for us as 20-year-old poor young marrieds to have such a shabby little tree. But we loved it and it's a good memory for us :) Last year, we got a tree way too late because we had been traveling and by the time we searched for a tree there were NO trees in Gainesville. We drove around for hours and there was nothing. Eventually we came to the conclusion that we would either have to find out own tree and cut it down (Tyler's idea) or get a Christmas "bush" from Walmart and decorate that (my idea). I'll let you guess who won that one. This year, we didn't get a Christmas tree because we weren't going to be in town anywhere near Christmas - sometimes you gotta compromise! - but I did deck the house out for the holiday :)<br />-TiffanyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01911376737249109670noreply@blogger.com
