And So This Is Christmas..

Sorry. No really I’m sorry. Posting about Christmas in October? I am really sorry.

Go away now if you aren’t quite ready yet. I won’t be offended.

Arrgghhhhhhhh where did you all go?

Last week I asked on my social media channels if people were ready for some festive posts and I was surprised. A few of you said woah there but most of you are more than ready for a glass of baileys and Fairy tale of New York. I went with the majority..

Ok so I’m excited about Christmas this year. More so than last year.

Izzy is at the absolute best age for Christmas. Three years old.

Full of wonder at everything and still too young to doubt Old Santa Claus.

I’m already planning EVERYTHING I want to do with her and Chloe.

Chloe will be too young to participate in a lot of things but I’m excited to see her face around the Christmas lights and at the carol concerts – she loves a good singsong.

It’s also something positive, something fun and something to aim towards. I need this.

Not at all scary that I will be back in work then. No not at all. Really. Hmmmmmmm.

So you can expect lots of Christmas on the blog this year.

Recipes, Gift ideas, crafting fun.. Thrifty DIY hampers.. Festive photos and more….

I’ve nearly finished my Christmas present shopping for my (rather large) family. Now onto planning our Christmas menu. The best part hey?

And I’ve already made the chutney 🙂

Have you started planning Christmas?
