December has to be one of my favourite months! Filled with the festive cheer of Christmas but also the month of my birthday, there’s lots to celebrate and this December has been particularly special!
Here’s what I’ve been up to this past month…
Loving Christmas decorations, scented candles, toasty feet by the fire, hot chocolate, Christmas dinner, Quality Street, Christmas lights, dark evenings, time with family, carol services.
Celebrating my own birthday and Jesus’ birthday!
Escaping Southampton for my birthday with a festive trip to London, followed by Christmas up North with my parents!
Eating Christmas dinner, Christmas cake, cheese and biscuits, birthday cake and copious amounts of Christmas chocolates!
Updating the beauty collection, homewares, my stationery selection and the travel itinerary with lots of lovely birthday and Christmas gifts!
Baking a gingerbread house, chocolate coins, Christmas pudding cupcakes and wreath cookies.
Watching lots of Christmas movies – Elf and It’s a Wonderful Life are particular favourites!
Enjoying spending time with family and friends. Christmas is all about giving and sharing time with those that you love.
Making time to reflect on the fact that Christmas is all about how Jesus came to Earth, God as man, so that we can have relationship with him.
Visiting the Winchester Christmas markets.
Wearing Christmas socks, pyjamas and dressing gowns, ankle boots, lots of sparkle and sequins and red for Christmas day.
Bringing Christmas trees into the house and bringing in the new year with cocktails, laughter and board games with friends!
2015, you’ve been brilliant! Here’s to what 2016 has to bring!
