Thanks to Jay Thompson's blog-a-thon recap, I found out about a great post by Bill Williams. So, I decided to take it on myself and make his list "focused" on myself...

1. What is your favorite holiday food? Chocolate covered pretzels
2. Do you remember your favorite gift when you were a kid?
3. What is your favorite Christmas tradition? Getting together with all my family on Christmas Eve and then m wife's family on Christmas day. Chance to see everyone that is part of my life in two days.
4. What is your favorite Christmas carol, and why? Anything instrumental, why? you've obviously never heard me sing...
5. What is your favorite Christmas memory? Being at my grandparent's house on Christmas eve. It was always a "warm" and wonderful night.
6. What is your favorite part of waking up on Christmas morning? Now, it is seeing the joy in my wife's eyes. She's 27, but she still has the energy of a 10-year-old on Christmas morning.
7. How has Christmas changed for you over the years? The biggest change has been that I've become tired of the "gifts" when that money could help others that need it so much more than I do.
8. What is the deepest prayer of your heart this Christmas? On a global level, it is that our troop's come home safe. On a personal level, my goal is to be successful enough in this career to pay back my family and friends support of me the past six months.

Great idea!
