I love people who bake, especially cupcakes and cookies. :) Growing up, we always got a real tree, but the tradition turned out to be a family argument trying to put the thing up! We'd never consider getting a fake one, though. My parents would always have a huge party on Christmas Eve too and all the neighbors would come over for drinks and treats. All us kids would get together in the basement and plan out how we were going to spot Santa that year!Christine Rainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263694662585963900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5061290982905427353.post-67112683146649692462012-11-27T13:23:27.862-05:002012-11-27T13:23:27.862-05:00Lmao!
