so no Christmas tree last weekend - all over I'm seeing everyone getting festive with lovely trees everywhere and yet I just feel like it can't possibly be christmas in 11 days as I have done nothing.. this week has not started well.. so it can only get better.. umm maybe not - this week the boy and I are learning how to tile - all looking good so far but I have a feeling the grouting is where it all might kick off!
hey ho - or hey ho ho ho... I'm looking forward to the weekend.. I am going to fester in all things Christmas to start getting me in the mood.. I'm thinking mulled wine, mince pies, christmas films, decorating, wrapping and wearing thick cosy socks and cardis.. umm sounds good.. also have to play dads birthday as well so tradition has always been that christmas only starts after his birthday - so I guess I'm not doing too badly!
Ahh! That is by far the most amazing advent calendar I have ever seen! So much better than a not very nice piece of chocolate! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat is wonderful. Can you share where you got it from? So sweet! Mince pies! yum!!! I am obsessed with them this year and have challenged myself to find the best in town. Its a tough job, but I will stick with it.
ReplyDeleteYes please tell! That is by far the best advent calendar I have seen.
ReplyDeleteI love that calendar, where did your mum get it?
ReplyDeleteMy sister is getting married this Saturday then Christmas can start!
I love a virtuous (ie. no chocolate)advent calendar and this one looks great, enjoy the next 9 days of building!
ReplyDeleteI am still glad of my chocolate one this year, especially when I forget to open it in the morning and we have no sweet things in the cupboard, and then I remember!
One year my brother asked for the equivalent money to be spent on one big bar of chocolate. My mum said no. Quite right!
