Five Question Friday

It's Friiiiiiday! Woohoo! Why am I so excited? Because the hubby will not be going hunting this weekend, yay! I'm so happy to have him home and not really have big plans all weekend. Maybe I can get all the other Christmas decorations out since Matt won't let us put up the tree. Waiting until after Thanksgiving to put the tree up is a lame rule that's not even a rule. Anyhoo....Five Question Friday is here and you can check it out over at Mama M.


1. Are you a Black Friday shopper? No no no! I don't think I have ever gone out on black Friday, at least not until that night. I used to work in retail and people are craaaaazy!! I get annoyed enough by all the rude people pushing around stores on a regular old Tuesday. Although....I could probably be convinced to go if I had to, after all it is shopping.

2. What was your favorite childhood toy? (Think Easy Bake Oven, Cabbage Patch Kid, Shrinky Dinks, etc.) Definitely my Cabbage Patch kids! I had tons of them!

3. Favorite Christmas movie? I have to put 3 here. One: A Christmas Story with Ralphie and his Red Ryder BB gun. I don't know why I love that movie so much but I watch it every year like 5 times on TNT when they have the 24 hour marathon. Two: Christmas Vacation!! Matt and I will watch it any time of the year, it doesn't even have to be Christmas. Three: Elf. I laugh through that entire movie, soooo funny!

4. What is the "must have" item on your Christmas list this year? Unrealistically....a brand new decked out minivan, a trip to Hawaii and a new baby. :) But maybe a little more realistic, a new camera. Other than that, all I want is to be with my family and everyone to be happy and healthy! I looooove Christmas, favorite time of the year!

5. Do you go all out with decorations or do you keep it simple and classy? I probably fall somewhere in the middle. I definitely would be the 'go all out' kind of girl but I just haven't accumulated that much Christmas stuff yet. :)

I hope everyone has a great weekend! I know I will since we're packing up the blaze orange until next year! :)

I want a decked out mini-van. Right now I have a mini-van with just one bell and no whistles.
Great answers!

All your Christmas movie choices are so fun! I hope you get your camera for a gift and you made me smile thinking back to shrinky dinks and my easy bake oven. :)

My husband won't let me put up the tree til after Thanksgiving either, but since I don't have any plans this weekend I am thinking about going ahead and cleaning the house really good and getting some of the stuff out and getting ready to put it up.

PotterMama said...

I like these! I may start doing it!!! I dont really like black friday either, but im going with friends anyway. lol.

Sarah said...

So is your hubby the one who made the rule for the tree?? Mine did! I hate it!!! However in exchange for that I get to watch Christmas movies and listen to Christmas music anytime of the year! Although he is bending this year and letting me put some stuff up early! :)

Mrs. B said...

i completely agree with the whole after thanksgiving thing being a dumb, nonexistent rule. i LOVE christmas! and oh my gosh, it would be so stinkin' fun to shop black friday together! AAAHHH! last year was the first year that i DIDN'T go out and i was so super bummed. ps. we have like the same exact christmas movie faves!

Jen said...

sounds like a perfect weekend...time with family getting ready for Christmas! I love to shop the day after Thanksgiving, well I should say go out the day after Thanksgiving. It's weird, I know, but I love the rush of the crowds, the activity and hussle and bussle. there are years I don't buy a thing, but still go out to watch the chaos. Crazy, I know. Have a GREAT weekend!

Bethany said...

What camera are you looking at? As you know, I'm so in love with mine!
YAY! You aren't a hunting widow any more. That's such a good feeling. Ty and Daddy are going out one time and then we're all though. Have a great weekend.

PotterMama said...

Minivan, Hawaii and a new baby??? That's all huh?? LOL. That is a cute wish list! I am so excited for the Christmas movies to start playing on TV :o) I am just excited for the Christmas hub bub to start.

Sonya said...

I will take a trip to Hawaii too!! :) I love all of those Christmas movies too! It amazes me how I can get sucked into A Christmas Story more than once during the entire 24 hour marathon! And Elf just cracks me up!

Keely said...

Carma Sez said...

I loved Elf! Hasn't it seemed like it's all gone downhill for Will Ferrell since then???)

And may you wind up with your decked out minivan, a baby AND a camera :D
