Open presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day? | Extended family on Christmas Eve and family presents on Christmas Day | Christmas Day | Half and half | Half and half |
The best Christmas present I ever got was | My bike when I was a kid | Bunny rabbit |
My dog, Lila |
A trampoline |
The best gift I ever gave someone was |
The homemade gifts we made as kids for my mom |
Can't remember |
And old picture collage I made for my mom |
Nothing specific stands out but I always like to find something that I know the person will really enjoy |
The most decked out house on my block belongs to |
Outside, it's too close to call but inside - it's my house. Every inch of the tree and house is decorated. | My neighbors | My grandparent's | Mine! |
Did you leave Santa milk and cookies as a kid? |
Yes and we still do! |
Yes! | Of course! | No, but I think it's cute |
The one thing that OU softball has that no one else does is | We are pushed hard and to our limits everyday and never have it easy. Our program is more structed than any I've been around, but we are a family unit that cares for each other in all aspects of life. |
The triathlon | The future to win a national championship! | I can think of several, but I am going to say pride - it's in everything we do. |
Did you ever try to catch a sneak peek at Santa? | Yup! And I know I saw him flying his sleigh over my house one year! | Not really | Yes | Of course, but we always fell asleep. |
What's the one thing you always wanted for Christmas and never got? | A puppy |
A television in my bedroom | A four-wheeler | A horse |
The best part about Christmas is | The happiness of being with family and celebrate and Christ |
The family traditions | Getting to spend time with family and relax | As a kid, it was the presents but now it's about being around family and loved ones and celebrating what Christmas is really about |
The winter sport I'm best at is |
Basketball | I don't think I'm good at any of them | Basketball | Christmas shopping |
