Questions...
OK, Christmas time is getting here.
To see if you are really getting into the Christmas spirit, there are a few questions that, if you have paid attention to the stuff you have seen and heard for the last 20+ years of your life, you should be able to answer.
OK...
1) Who always has the tallest Christmas tree in their house...
2) What is the first rule about packages under the tree...
(Don't be fooled by the many derivations you have heard or may think you know)
3)What are the first ornaments we ever had...
(The very first)
4)How many years did Nana needlepoint Christmas ornaments...
5)What is on our mantel during Christmas and why...
(Two specific things besides stockings)
6)What has been under the sofa in the music room for the last 20+ years...
7)What present did Uncle Joe give you kids one Christmas many years ago...
(You where all very excited to get it)
8)What "flavor" candle do we like to light during Christmas...
9)What unique ingredient was in Aunt Betty's coffee cake...
10)What figurine do I like to have next to my blue chair during Christmas...

Hi
You both are very close. There are a few things that you are missing.
Here is the list and some clues...
1) The answer to the first one is always...The Dad
2) Yes, the rule is "no touching"
3) Eh, no... You need to think about Christmas for the Mom and me before kids... mmm, before kids...
4) This one is a little nebulous. We are not sure if she made them before there were 3 of you... So probably 9-10
5) Yes, the Christmas village and Catzilla, BUT why is Catzilla there...
6) Yes
7) Uh, nope... All 3 of you were very excited... Hint (It was the newest technology)
8) Yes
9) Yep... PRUNES, yea
10) Think about it, it is a figurine that is veryu happy...
Good so far
The Dad
we have a tall tree! whooooo!
3) Oooo, I know! I know! Those blue glass balls! (Gridgey, this is your opening to make some sort of inappropriate comment.)
5) Catzilla is there to terrorize the unlucky Christmas villagers.
I still don't know 7 and 10.
Yes
You got the ornaments right
Vicious Catzilla does "watch" over the villagers. That's why you never see them.
Number 7 was an Atari game. That was before computers really got hold and all it played was "Pong" but you all really liked it.
Number 10 is a figurine of Santa next to a mail box. He is very happy.
Yea...
The Dad
so, i was right on #10. You just don't see the transformation from samta to satan 'cause you're sleeping at midnight...bwa ha ha ha h a!
