Would You Rather? Christmas Edition

Becky Church | December 21, 2017

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you!

How did this happen??! Just when we thought time would slow down for a hot second, we are about to flip the calendar to a new month and a new year. Although we are all having a hard time believing that Christmas is already upon us, we couldn’t be more excited to be spending the holiday with family and friends that we are so grateful to have in our lives.

We are confident that we have prepped you well, as you head on your way and into your kitchen to conquer that prime rib Christmas dinner with fiery pride! In case you missed it, take a look back at some of our recent Facebook posts for recipe inspiration, how-to tutorials and beef and wine (lots of wine) pairings. From Christmas to New Year’s entertaining, we’ve got all of the bases covered with entreesappetizers and crowd pleasers. #NoBeefLeftBehind

After the cattle are fed, chores are done and dinner is served, it will be time for some good ‘ole fashioned family bonding. Whoohoo, GET EXCITED. 

We thought we’d come up to a solution to make the holidays fun with your family, friends and kids with a quick little game that you can take with you on the road (great solution to the age-old question “Are we there yet?”).

Would you Rather? Christmas-Edition

That’s right. A beloved game of “Would You Rather,” coming to you as a Christmas rendition answered by your favorite beef staff!

Put on your party pants, because the F U N is about to begin –

Karin

1) Would you rather be one of Santa’s reindeer or be one of Santa’s elves? Probably one of the elves. They work all year to enjoy the big day with their feet up, drinking hot cocoa. 

2) Would you rather be best friends with Frosty the Snowman or Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer? Frosty! I bet he gives great hugs.

3) Would you rather watch “Christmas Vacation” or “Elf”? Elf, obviously! I actually have never liked Christmas Vacation. Will Ferrell all the way!

4) Would you rather live at the North Pole or at the South Pole? North Pole … On top of the World!

5) Would you rather eat Christmas cookies for a year or eat candy canes for a year? Cookies, hands down!

6) Would you rather host a Christmas party or host a New Year’s Party? Christmas party. That way I can just have fun on New Years!

ROYALEE

1) Would you rather have marshmallows in your hot chocolate or have candy canes in your hot chocolate? Marshmallows

2) Would you rather wrap gifts or shop for gifts? Wrap gifts.  I love to gift wrap!

3) Would you rather go sledding or go for a sleigh-ride? Sleigh-ride. I love the sound of sleigh bells and I love horses too.

4) Would you rather wear Christmas jammies or a Santa suit? I would rather wear a Ms. Claus suit.

5) Would you rather hang Christmas lights or bake Christmas cookies? Bake Christmas cookies

6) Would you rather go for a snowmobile or sleigh ride? Sleigh ride

BECKY

1) Would you rather have to sing Jingle Bells or wear a Santa hat every time you went to the grocery store? Jingle Bells..“the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing (off-note) for all to hear!”

2) Would you rather make Christmas gifts or buy them? Make them, if/when time allows

3) Would you rather have a Christmas cookie bake or cookie exchange? Cookie bake

4) Would you rather ride the Polar Express or live in a giant gingerbread house? I saw the Polar Express movie with my cousins when it first came out in theaters. I’d be down for the real-life adventure!

5) Would you rather see the Nut Cracker or dance in the Nut Cracker? Although not as coordinated as ballet dancers, I like to think I have some killer dance moves when no one is watching…similar situation to my singing.

6) Would you rather drink hot chocolate or hot apple cider? Hot apple cider

KATIE

  1. Would you rather visit the North Pole or Bethlehem? Bethlehem
  2. Would you rather receive socks or receive mittens? I hate wearing socks!
  3. Would you rather celebrate your birthday or celebrate Christmas? The traditions are wonderful and the holiday is always spent with family.
  4. Would you rather make snow angels or go ice skating? Ice skating. When I was younger I would pretend I could do all those cool tricks 
  5. Would you rather rake leaves or shovel snow? Rake leaves. As much as I like the looks of snow, I really do not like the cold. I would rather be curled up on the couch with a good book and hot cup of cocoa watching the snow fall. 
  6. Would you rather stay home or go out to celebrate? Stay home surrounded by family.

Ashley

  1. Would you rather have a white Christmas or Christmas without snow? I love a white Christmas!  Even more so as our kiddos grow and enjoy playing in the snow.
  2. Would you rather have eggnog or hot chocolate? Hot chocolate – 100%.  Who doesn’t love a warm glass of hot chocolate after working or playing outside?  We love a variety of hot chocolate in our household, though white hot chocolate and mint hot chocolate are the top two favorites!
  3. Would you rather get a gift in a small package or get a gift in a big package? This is a great question!  I love flowers, chocolate and things that sparkle so, big or small… I’m good with either (or both) 
  4. Would you rather peak at your gifts beforehand or be surprised when you open them? There are so few real surprises in life. So, even though I’m horrible at keeping surprises a secret, I love the surprise that comes with opening a gift of my own.
  5. Would you rather have an angel at the top of the tree or a star on the top of your tree? We have a star on our tree. I wish I could give a heartfelt reason as to why… but, we first got married I went shopping for Christmas ornaments and fell in love with a star that was covered in pearls, which I love. This is the 12th Christmas it’s been on top of our tree.
  6. Would you rather wear mittens or wear gloves? When dealing with farm chores and children, being able to use your fingers to help with a gate, fix a broken toy, hold a hand while outside is a must – so it’s gloves for me.

Renee

1) Would you have a winter wonderland or summer sun all year around? Summer sun (ironic that I live in Minnesota)

2) Would you rather have prime rib or hamburgers for Christmas dinner? Prime rib

3) Would you rather be Mrs. Claus or be Santa’s lead elf? Santa’s lead elf

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
