MilSpouse Friday Fill In #66

 

Hello friends! How has your week been? Mine has been busy! Schoolwork, housework, being one of Santa’s elves! Ya know. The norm. Hope you enjoy this week’s questions! Don’t forget to check out the rest of the milspouses. (Click on the picture!)

 

1. My favorite song of the season is …. Too many to choose from! I love Carol of the Bells, All I Want For Christmas is You, I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas, etc. I love all Christmas music!

2. My aunt is someone who inspires me because she does so much. She always takes care of everyone else before herself. I think it’s high time someone takes care of her. She’s amazing.

3. If I had $100,000 to give to a charity, I’d give it to New Missions. It’s an organization that has several orphanages in Haiti and surrounding areas. They have done so much for the people of Haiti.

4. If I had a theme party, I’d make it either Christmas (right now) or Spa Day!!

5. If I had one wish for my kids/future kids/some young person I care about, it would be that they have the absolute best education and opportunities in life possible. I want my kids to know they can do or be anything they want when they grow up! Anything is possible.

Christmas Movie Marathon

I love Christmas movies. Heck, I love all things Christmas. I could watch Christmas movies all year round. The best part is that this time of year several channels have Christmas movie marathons! It’s like 24/7 Christmas movies!! It’s fantastic!!

I absolutely love the Santa Clause movies. All three of them! They are probably my absolute faves. I also love Polar Express. I used to read the book when I was little so when the movie came out, I was so happy!

I love How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Elf, Christmas with the Kranks, Miracle on 34th Street and of course It’s a Wonderful Life! You get the picture!

What are some of your favorite Christmas movies? Have you started watching them yet?

10. Did you marry him before or after he joined? After.

11. How did your husband propose? He woke me up early the day we were taking his daughter home to her mom’s house. I was kinda irritated because he woke me up before my alarm went off. He looked at me, held out the ring and said “I was gonna ask you a question.” I sat up really quick, my eyes wide open. He said “Will you marry me?” and I of course said yes!

12. Where did you get married? We got married in my home church in Nashville. Same place my parents got married.
