Festive Fun!

It's been a thoroughly "festive" 3 days for me and this Sunday evening I couldn't be happier!

Fun started on Friday afternoon with a trip to the local high streets Christmas market and there was excitement when a bus broke down on the roundabout causing no end of trouble! 


Thankfully Ben armed with community spirit helped direct traffic whilst we waited for them to move the bus


We rewarded ourselves with coffees after all that hard work!


Saturday I bribed my brother and his family with cinnamon pastries to come round and decorate my Christmas tree


Brody was shocked at what he was going to earn for his efforts!


Violet preferred selecting decorations with Nanny to add to the tree


Tree decorating was taken very seriously by me from the look on my face!


Until I started enjoying myself!


Monumental putting of the fairy on the top of the tree


Then we packed ourselves up and headed to a Christmas Market


Where we caught in a snow storm!


and then back to my brothers house for fish and chips

What a perfect day continuing today with a jaunt around the local shops, collecting Christmas presents, buying Christmas cards and a GORGEOUS wreath which I'll share in another post as I think this one is becoming photo heavy!!

Once again I hope you're all getting into the Christmas spirit this weekend!

Pin It Now!
