I have decided to document my run up to Christmas, how we as a family prepare and have fun.
This weekend we cleared out our loft and in doing so have found a bag of Christmas decorations from last year so the excitement levels are starting to rise along with the stress levels. Usually by now I have bought most of my christmas gifts for family and friends but this year I seem to be slacking. I thought by starting this I can get myself organised in time for the big day.
We will be decorating the first weekend in December so have a bit of a clean up operation to start next week. I am also trying to do things on a tight budget this year so have been utilising pinterest for ideas the kids and I can do to make decorations or gifts.
This week I am busy with school fetes and house parties trying to sell a lot of Christmassy gifts me and a friend have made, things like, cookies for Santa, reindeer food, Reinbeer, and gifts for teachers etc. I'll upload some photos of these later.
My girls are getting very excited and looking forward to meeting Santa before Christmas to let him know what they would like IF they are good. They will know how they are doing when they get a message from Santa from http://www.portablenorthpole.com
Merry Christmas!
