How We Holiday: The Bernard Family

At Primary, we believe there’s no wrong way to holiday. When we brought our co-founders and their kids to model our new Mix-and-Match Family PJs, we sat them down for a fun lightning round of holiday questions. Here's Galyn's...

1. Hot chocolate or eggnog? Hot chocolate (read: Reddi Wip).
   
   
2. Favorite holiday movie? Elf with the kids; the original Frosty, Rudolph or Grinch after they go to bed — those get me every time!
   
   
3. What's on the top of your wishlist? A fun/adventure-y vacation.
   
   
4. Favorite gift you've ever been given? Always the kids’ handmade gifts that come home from school!
   
   
5. Favorite gift you ever gave? I got my husband an oven mitt that says “F***, I love cheese.” — it makes me laugh every time I see it.
   
   
6. Ice skating or sledding? Sledding, but only on a big hill with no trees!
   
   
7. Favorite place to spend the holidays? My living room, as close to the fireplace as physically possible without actually crawling inside.
   
   
8. Favorite holiday meal? Christmas morning-ish: Shrimp and grits with andouille sausage and brandy milk punch.
   
   
9. Funniest item on your child's wish list (of all time)? A farm.
   
   
10. Would you rather get a useful gift or a fun gift? Fun!
    
    
11. Would you rather have tinsel for hair or no hair at all? Gorgeous tinsel hair, please.
    
    
12. Pumpkin pie or apple pie? All the pies.
    
    
13. Have you ever been kissed under mistletoe? Yes! We have the cutest little felt one that is always the most fun to find in the ornament box.
    
    
14. Favorite SNL holiday skit? I’m not sure if it counts but the Adele Hello Thanksgiving skit is tough to beat.
    
    
15. Mulled wine or hot toddies? Smelling mulled wine, drinking regular wine. 
    
    
16. Would you rather wear an ugly sweater or elf slippers for the entire month of December? Ugly sweater (I am always freezing so I would probably even sleep in it).
    
    
17. Real tree or artificial? Real! We always cut our own. 
    
    
18. Holiday song most likely to get stuck in your head? "Oh the weather outside is...weather," (maybe the funniest Paul Rudd line ever - from Forgetting Sarah Marshall).
    
    
19. Rise early or sleep late on holiday break? Ideally a little of each, but I always end up somewhere in between. 
    
    
20. Probability that your family's holiday card will show everyone in matching Primary PJs? Very high.
    
    
21. Ski slopes or ski lodges? Two or three slopes and then I’m all about the lodge.

Thank you so much, Galyn! Where can we find one of those oven mitts?
