Back before Christmas.....


We were away for Christmas this year but did manage to put up a tree and a few festive bits before jetting off across the world. Our Elf visited daily and the kids excitedly munched the chocolate from their advent calendars every morning. I love how excited they get about Christmas now! It really does bring back the magic :) For the first time they decorated the tree almost entirely by themselves (hence the odd random pipe-cleaner or paper gift tag ornament!) We even had our own quiet family pre-Christmas dinner and present opening and for what it lacked in grandness and bustling, busy Christmassy-ness it made up for in it's quiet simplicity. We had a roast chicken dinner, a real English Christmas pud, a mismatched table with sparkling candles and crackers and it was lovely without any of the fuss.
