Merry Christmas!

My Christmas tree :)

Merry Christmas everyone!  It's Christmas Eve here and all I have left to do is some last minute present wrapping, then I can relax and enjoy the holidays.  It's going to be a low-key Christmas as my husband and I were hoping to be moved into our first proper house (we had our offer accepted back in September, solicitors need to hurry up!), but that hasn't happened, which is a bit disappointing.  But on the positive side, we both have two glorious weeks off work and I worked extra hard over the last few weeks to ensure that I didn't have school work to complete during that time - so it's a proper holiday.  I hope to read lots of books, bake, visit friends and family and take lots of walks.


It's also going to be a special Christmas as it's our first one with our new nephew, Joseph, who will be six weeks old on Christmas Day.  He's starting to get more curious about the world and loves bright things so I'm sure that a) he will get spoiled rotten over Christmas and b) he's going to love it.

However you celebrate at this time of year, hope you have a wonderful time!
What have you got planned?

  17. Merry very late Christmas! I hope you had a wonderful time with your nephew. He's absolutely adorable. I got to see all my baby cousins this year, and it was a delight. (A very loud delight -- there are thirteen of them, ranging in age from three weeks to about eight years.)
