Hi! I am an athiest but my husband's family, as well as mine, are christian. We like to celebrated christmas so that we can have that family enteraction time. However, Dec. 26th, 2005 we had a baby girl. Now we don't want to celebrate christmas so that we don't ruin her birthday. Our problem is that everyone is upset with us for "not wanting to spend time with the family" by not celebrating chrismas and we don't want to screw our kid out of a fun holiday just because we're athiest. What do other Athiest families do? Even through I was christian as a kid christmas was never about christ, it was always about the presents. I want my daughter to have a day like that.

What sounds like a good and fair idea?

Someone showed me their two Christmas trees and said they were proud to follow the example set by Martin Luther. I have never heard of this before. What is the significance and origin?

I'm looking for something that a 20 year old guy would like. He's into snowboarding and dirt bikes. I want to get him something that he'll really like and use.

The reason I'm asking is because I think that sometimes strangers can have the best ideas, since I know my brother I tend to over think it.

I'm going to Las Vegas to visit family. They live right by the strip. Friday I might get bored and don't want to spend alot of money. Is there anything fun to do that doesn't involve clubbing, drinking, gambling i'm a Christian and even when I wasn't that stuff wasn't fun to me. I'm more interested in museums, cool things to see.

Last week, the week before Thanksgiving, was National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, co-sponsored annually by the National Coalition for the Homeless and the National Student Campaign against Hunger and Homelessness. What? Isn’t this the world’s wealthiest nation?

What colours / themes do you use on your tree and around your house?

I stick to red / burgundy / gold ornaments with clear lights on the tree and around the house (a more traditional style).

when it's all said and done...how many dollars
do you think you will have shelled out for
Christmas this year. Be honest. Lets see what
people really spend. I plan to spend $800 on gifts
for others and about $500 on gifts for me and my
small family. Also about another $200 for wrapping,
and extra food and last minute decorations and such.
leaving a total bill for me.. of... $1500. Thats
probably not alot for some people..but it is for me!

Welcome to the 2006 Holiday Edition of Getting to Know Your Friends! Enjoy!! Everyone has time for a few moments of fun! Don't be a scrooge!!!

1. Egg Nog or Hot Chocolate? I hate the taste of Egg Nog, so I would have to say Hot Chocolate.

2. Does Santa wrap presents or just sit them under the tree? Wrapped.

3. Colored lights on tree/house or white? I like both, it depends on the type of ornaments you are using for the tree, and the type of decorations you are using for the house.

4. Do you hang mistletoe? Yes, usually every year… but it rarely gets “noticed”.

5. When do you put your decorations up? A week or two before Christmas, but one year we left the Christmas lights on the house until the following Christmas.

6. What is your favorite holiday dish (excluding dessert)? My family does things a little differently on Christmas, instead of Turkey and Mashed Potatoes we go Mexican, so I would have to say my Mom’s layered Enchiladas.

7. Favorite Holiday memory as a child: When I got my dog Pepper, she was in a big box that I got to open, and my parents kept getting mad because Christmas night I kept sneaking out of bed and laying on the floor with her.

8. When and how did you learn the truth about Santa? When everyone started asking me what I wanted for Christmas.

9. Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? Yes, always pajamas… I wear them to bed, and everywhere I go to open presents, then I go home and get changed for dinner (sometimes).

10. How do you decorate your Christmas Tree? My family usually just puts on the usual colored lights, cute ornaments (Hallmark… my Grandma started collecting them for me when I was just a baby), and of course the Star or Angel.

11. Snow! Love it or Dread it? I love it, when I don’t have to be in it forever! I love snowboarding, so nice weekend trips to where it snows are great!

12. Can you ice skate? I have only Ice Skated a couple times.

13. Do you remember your favorite gift? Probably the Pearl Jewelry set that my Grandpa gave me one year… I’ll cherish it forever!

14. What's the most important thing about the Holidays for you? Definitely the Family and Loved ones!

15. What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Wow, where to start…Probably Pumpkin Pie, but how can you expect a person to just choose one favorite dessert?

16. What is your favorite holiday tradition? Just the whole atmosphere of the season.

17. What tops your tree? Either a Star or an Angel, we have both and we choose from year to year.

18. Which do you prefer giving or receiving? I love giving gifts and watching how excited the person gets when they open them.

19. What is your favorite Christmas Song? Jingle Bell Rock… you got to love Home Alone!

20. Candy Canes! yuck or yummy? Yummy, if you don’t like peppermint you can find all sorts of different flavors.

21. Favorite Christmas Movie? A Christmas Story… I watch 24 hrs. Of A Christmas Story every year of TBS… “YOU’LL SHOOT YOUR EYE OUT!”

Any ideas? Green Bean Casserole has been taken. No carrots or yams - potatoes have already been taken as well.

Thanks
