Hi
sorry sorry, busy few days here, christmas shopping, hanging decorations etc etc.
on Tuesday evening after Joe finished school we went to a fairly local farm and chose a Christmas tree, we chose a lovely Nordman fir (low needle drop) that has roots and is ready potted. we had heard that they were going to be very expensive this year but we go to the same place every year and it was only £3 more (£28) than last year, I had a shock when i went into homebase earlier and saw a tree the same size for £40!!
so it spent tuesday night outside as it was to late for Joe to help decorate it before bed....
Wednesday we had great fun and the usual stress untangling the white fairy lights and hanging the decs, then Joe broke some candy canes and started eating them (they are 8 years old!!) so back up to the farm shop on Thursday for more candy canes!
Saturday (today)
we took Joe and Eva to the local village hall to see Santa Eva was amazed at all the pretty lights, joe was not as impressed but he liked his present - a book from Santa. (My friend Amanda decorates the grotto and she did a spot on job!)
So kids are in bed and x factor is just starting ..Night xx
